Thanks, Gerben – PG5M
Apologies to anyone that had access issues this morning. We were alerted to an issue on M0OXO Bespoke OQRS around 4am UK time.
Iain G4SGX has been active recently from Jamaica as G4SGX/6Y. He also participated in last weekends BERU Contest.
Luke VK3HJ, Alan VK6CQ, Matt K0BBC and Chris VK3QB will activate Vanuatu on 40 through to 6 metres from 29 March until 11 April 2024. For the first week our focus will be on SSB and CW, with FT8 as a ‘back-fill’ mode. The second week will be CW and FT8.
We’ll have an IC7300 and 500W amplifier for SSB and the CW station will be an Elecraft KX3 with an SPE amplifier. FT8 will radiate with an IC7000. Antennas will be DX-Commander Expeditions (with thanks to Callum) and a 40 metre doublet.
