I just spoke with LA9SGA, the chairman of the Arendal section, and he has no knowledge of any club activity from Jan Mayen.

It only has 92 lookups on qrz.com, so it doesn't seem to be very active. The announced QSL manager lives at the other end of Norway and has 114 lookups. Finally, nothing was announced in advance. A legitimate club operation probably would have been. All in all this smells very bad. The way LA/JW/JX/3Y calls work is that I would become JX4RT the moment I set foot on Jan Mayen.
