The “Radio House” is located on the island of Bonaire. Bonaire is a special municipality of the Netherlands, consisting of the Caribbean island of Bonaire and the uninhabited islet of Klein Bonaire. Together with Aruba and Curacao it forms a group referred to as the ABC islands of the Leeward Antilles, the southern island chain of the Lesser Antilles. Bonaire was part of the Netherlands Antilles until the country's dissolution on October 10th, 2010, when the island became a special municipality within the country of the Netherlands. (And a new country for DXCC)
Noah, K2NG, built the house and station in the early 2000’s. There have been many winning contest scores achieved from the station. Currently three world records are held by operations that took place at the Radio House.
The station is primarily used every year by members of the PJ4 radio club for the ARRL DX and CQWW DX contests. It is now available for rental for other contests and DX holiday style operations. If you might be interested in renting the station please contact the rental agent Hans van Hese, PJ4LS.
