VP8DOZ - Denis - in my log on 17M as New DXCC! South Georgia Islands

Number 9 Most Wanted by Clublog

I was waiting for him few evening on his QRG (18.160) he appered there around 20:30 but didn`t copy him at all. Maybe condition were not good , maybe Wicklow Mountains at his direction blocked his signal somehow ... He is using just 100W and 17/20 GP

Decided to go EI0PL location to give a try. And it was good idea. AK61824 antenna by SP3GEM is a good choice ... I was able to hear VP8DOZ on 18Mhz and exchange signal report as well. He was 5/7 at best peak! Thanks for new one Denis.

V6Z - Micronesia

by Chris GM3WOJ and Keith GM4YXI

Chris and Keith are great DXpeditioners and I have always pleasure to work them

(Niue ZK2V / Cocos (Keeling) Is. VK9CZ / Tonga A35V/A35X)

This time they strikes from Micronesia.

Great choice in my opinion. No many QSOs with V6 in my log and only two bands CFM on LoTW.

This time there is a hope for high bands!

Managed QSO on 12M CW / 17M CW / 20 CW / 15 SSB

New one on 12M!

SWL`ed them on 10M SSB with great signal at about 13:00 local time but didn`t make QSO.

Few days left , who knows ....

As far as I know they survived Tropical Cyclone Maysak!
