3B8CW,,A DX LEGEND IS WINDING DOWN.....by N4GNR when thinking about some of the great DX operators of the last many decades, 3B8CW fits that definition. Clive has been on the air from Mauritius since 2010, offering 3B8 as a new country for many modes. Clives ham radio career started way back in 1963 in the U.K. High school and college were the priority. In 1966-1970 Clive moved to Barbados and operated as 8P6AP. Then in 1977- 1980 he made a stop in Bermuda as VP9JP. 1983-1987 he was S79CW in Seychelles. A 23 year stop in Hong Kong from 1987 -2010 as VS6CW & VR2CW...Then 2010 until this date he has put Mauritius on the air as 3B8CW. Clives plans are to be back in the U.K.for total retirement with his wife Jennifer and he will be G0UDE. Please give Clive thanks for the decades of Ham Radio service. Either an email, a letter to him, or tell him on the air. He has made many a thousand Q's from all over the world. It has been an honor to know and serve Clive. Thanks Clive !1 Dan N4GNR
