Active EUDXF Member Alex 5B4ALX his DXpedition to Niue Island is coming in a few days. Despite this is a One-Man-DXpedition activity is to be expected as Alex is often in SO2R style of operation combining several bands and modes. Alex will carry enough hardware with him to provides us with good signals from the Pacific: Equipment : 2x Icom IC-7300 + solid state amplifier 2x 40A switching 2x Laptop (running Wintest and FT8 dxped software) Antennas : 6m : Mono Quad @ 8mh 10m : Mono Quad @ 8mh 15m : Mono Quad @ 8mh 17/20m : Homemade 1/2… Continue reading →

Here we have the T31EU team posing with the EUDXF flag: Despite terrible propagation they are working hard to give many of us the contact with this very much needed DXCC. Just 2 more days to get them…..

The generator causes interference on the RX Beverage. The team added additional K9AY receiving antennas to overcome this issue and further improve reception at the lowbands. On all bands there… Continue reading →
