I now have photographs for the KH8T, VP6WR and FO/G0VDE QSL designs and these will be the next for Max ON5UR our designer to work through.

KH8T Final Log Update

KH8T American Samoa log update has been uploaded to Bespoke OQRS and to LoTW. All.txt files received and inquiries completed. LoTW is currently down so last 500 Qs will be uploaded to LoTW once it is back online. KH8T OQRS open: 

Missing QSO?

How do I ask for a missing QSO to be searched or corrected?

On OQRS log search you will see a button “Log Check Request” ALL logging inquiries should click this link to our form.
The form is sent to my work queue and enables me to work interactively with the log to find the issue, this is something emails cannot do!

It is for MISSING or INCORRECT QSOs ONLY” Before making any inquiry check the Last QSO date and time in the log. 

Please do NOT send emails or screen shots unless asked! (Emails will be deleted without reply) For FT modes our teams will send me the ALL.TXT files after the DXpedition has ended.
If you are not in log. It is always advised that you try again for that band slot. Thank you.

Pitcairn Island September

VP6WR Pitcairn Island DXpedition will be operated by Bill, G0VDE during September 2024 QSL Via M0URX
“I’m planning to travel to VP6, Pitcairn Island in the Pacific, and be active between approximately 5th to 15th September 2024. 
I will initially be travelling to Tahiti on the 31st August, stopping there for a couple of days and then travelling on Air Tahiti to Mangareva Island (Gambier) on the 3rd September. I then take the Pitcairn Island’s boat – the ‘Silver Supporter’ – for the around 30 hour trip to Pitcairn.
The return trip means I arrive back on Mangareva on 17th September but as the next flight back to Tahiti is on the following Saturday 21st, I’ll be staying there for four days and plan to activate Mangareva as FO/G0VDE QSL Via M0URX
I should return to the UK on the 24th September.”
