I have few eqsl from South sheetland island and thats count as SA -South america continent, but station worked is on Sheetland island, but on IOTA AN-010, so AN-010 must count like Antartica. In my case i recivied eWAC witout 7. continent. Is there possibility to send this question to award manager?

Hi,
There has been a discussion about this in the Advisory Board. The final decision seemed to be :
For the purposes of the eWAC South Shetland is considered SA as the designated continent (as per Wiki ref to DXCC).
For eAntarctica, South Shetland Islands are also considered in Antarctica.
RSGB have listed AN-010 as the IOTA designation for South Shetland Islands.
From QRZ DXCC Entity: 241 Continent: SA TZ Offset: -4 hrs UTC ITU Zone: 73 CQ Zone: 13 ARRL Prefix: CC: GB Callsign prefixes: VP8 4K1 RI1ANF
But I forward your e-mail to the Managers : K7INA, G4GVB...
