Please DO NOT use OQRS unless your QSO is CONFIRMED on Club Log. Thanks.
After having a great solo DXpedition to Pohnpei in 2012, I thought it would be appropriate to return to Micronesia, this time to Kosrae, OC-59, especially since I now had a 500 watt amplifier light enough to carry with me. I knew V6 was in the Top 100, so why not? Micronesia is just north of the Equator, and the 8000 mile haul to North America was doable. Although ClubLog propagation charts do not show any 160 activity to NA out of the 350 or so logs submitted, I figured that it was because no one had attempted that path yet. A challenge, true,
As QSL sponsors of EP6T, ON5UR Max & M0URX Tim are pleased to show you the preview of the EP6T QSL designs. QSL cards are on schedule to be in the post later in March.
Stan WS5K will be QRV as PJ4F on Bonaire IOTA SA-006 from February 15th – March 15th 2015.
QSL Via M0URX Direct.
Bureau OQRS only please.
