3D2XX (1988) ON LOTW ---> The computer disks have been lost, but W6SZN has
the paper log. You can email your QSO data to Kip (kedwards[@]itol.com) and
he will upload the requests to LoTW once a week or so. This was the first
DXpedition to Rotuma. [TNX The Daily DX]
4W6A ---> The 4W6A team now has a Titanex V160E vertical antenna for use on
160 metres. They had previously planned to use an 18m Spiderbeam pole as
the support for a 160m inverted-L. With the arrival of the Titanex, the 18m
Spiderbeam pole will now be used for a full-size 80m quarter-wave folded
monopole vertical instead. All the antennas will be located on the beach
within a few metres of the ocean.
4W6A will be QRV from Atauro Island (OC-232), Timor-Leste on 16-26
September. There will be up to four station active on 160-10 metres CW, SSB
and RTTY.
QSL via M0URX, direct or bureau (OQRS at www.m0urx.com). The entire log
will be uploaded to LoTW as quickly as possible after the end of the
operation or, if possible, also during the DXpedition. Further information
can be found at www.4w6a.com [TNX 9M6DXX]
QSL VIA W8AEF ---> "Due to poor health, Dan Brown (NA7DB) has passed logs
for all of the following over to W8AEF", The Daily DX reports:
9M0M 1-9 Mar 2001 XZ1ZV 30 Jan- 2 Feb 2000
NA7DB/HP4 4-13 Jan 2003 XZ5DB 31 Mar - 3 Apr 2002
XZ1L 30 Jan - 2 Feb 2000 ZK1AAG 6-17 Mar 1994
XZ1VS 31 Jan - 2 Feb, 2000 ZK1WTU 6-10 Mar 1994
XZ1YL 30 Jan- 2 Feb 2000 ZK1ZRD 6-17 Mar 1994
There are no cards left for some of those activities, so he will issue
"just a note confirming the contact rather than a printed QSL. Logs will be
loaded to LoTW when time permits".
XF4L (1989) ON LOTW ---> Some of the computerized logs have been lost, and
only one third of the QSOs has been uploaded to LoTW. However "the paper
logs remain intact and individual QSOs can be uploaded by contacting
OH2BU". [TNX The Daily DX]
