Minami Torishima 南鳥島

Fantastic DX in my log today! Minami Torishima - Marcus Island !!! This is dream locatation to be DX! JG8NQJ/JD1 Brand New Country. CW on 18Mhz. Take is using 50W and 3 ele Yagi for EU fixed. Condition was great from EI to JA direction. I`ve worked few Japan stations on 12m today. I had QSO with RI1FJA from Franz Josef  Land on 24Mhz as well.  When JG8NQJ/JD1 signal show up on 17m I knew it it will be workable! And it was. Few months ago I`ve SWL his signal on 30m but was very weak and he din`t reply to my call.

Vietnam on 40m

No much activity on the bands by EI9KC last few days :

* family life are more important

* weather outside is like during summer time! +20C

* break from the radio is needed

In spare time I did some improvement of my wimdom antenna balun. And now I am testing it on low bands how is working. Looks fine. Interesting DX just worked on 40mCW XV2W Larry from Vietnam.

One of Best EI DX-Man EI7CC Peter is QRV now as 7P8PB from Lesotho. Last year he was there as well but I had no luck to be in his log. This year I happy to have QSO with Peter in Lesotho on 10m (last Sunday) and 15m - today. New DXCC on those bands for me and rapid QSL on LoTW. Many thanks Peter!

Tonga once again!

A35YZ Dx Pedition from Tonga in my log for 2`nd time this morning! 14MhzCW via L/P signal was low  ... similar to 30mCW but good copy, nice clear without noises. Very happy with that QSO. Their location is one of most difficult to work from Ireland.

CW can do a magic .... Grey Line can help!

A35YZ is QRV now and I`m happy to have them in my log! For 1`st time Kingdom of Tonga worked on the bands. I was thinking few days how to work them. SWL their signal last Saturday on 30mCW but no luck. Decided to wake up early today to try and it was worth it! QSO on 10Mhz CW , very low signal but good ears on the other side there in Tonga! Grey Line helps too! Here is a video how low was their signal when I was working them. Few minutes after signal was much better.
