Good Man Elmo EA5BYP

3C0BYP - QSL Card

3C0BYP - Another fine job by EA5BYP Elmo from Annobon Island in Africa. New band this time 17M. Nice full colour double sided card received.

Marion Island ... once again

ZS8C - "Old" QSL

ZS8C is QRT now. Carson gave us great opportunity to work this rare DXCC. I am happy to log him on two bands. QSL above is my first QSL received from his QSL Manager , confirmed my 10M QSO.

After that I had a chance to work him again on 15M. Had a hope for 12M, tried few times but without luck. No worries anyway. Two QSOs with Marion Island in my log! Brand new DXCC.

Both QSOs are confirmed on LoTW now. I am QSL card collector and new version of ZS8C Carson QSL card was ordered by OQRS on Clublog. 4 pages QSL cannot be missed in my collection:

Look for W1AW/0 next few days. Is QRV from South Dakota .... One of the rarest US State on HF. I am missing SD on several bands and will try. So far 17M sorted. Good Luck!

It is time for a change ....

+ 3 DXCC SWL , not worked , tried but no luck.

+ 2 times internal ATU in ICOM IC-PRO3 was calibrated

+1 GU74B Tube damaged and relay in my PA

Serious DX chasing ...

Enjoyed this antenna very much .... but sometimes it was not enough. Garden in my location is limited for small antenna. 

Now it is time for a change.

New antenna in my QTH. I had this antenna for short time already but it was prototype that time (4 years ago) And my mast wasn`t good.

G3TXQ Hexbeam by SP7IDX is back in my garden. Let`s see how it goes.

So far 2 new ones on 17M (Ecuador and Venezuela) worked with 75W

WARC bands were "weakest" on SP3PL`s Delta. High SWR was main problem. 

Looking forward to enjoy Hexbeam by SP7IDX now.

FT5ZM - Amsterdam Island - Confirmed

Nice surprise today. FT5ZM Amsterdam Island DX-Pedition 2014 confirmed on LoTW.
