9M4SLL Team would like to remind you that some logging software may not identify 9M4SLL as being Spratly Islands. If this is the case with your log please manually change the DXCC ADIF Country Identifier to 247 Spratly Islands.
The log will be uploaded to LoTW at the earliest opportunity, but remember your log must have the correct ADIF country identifer number to match on LoTW. Thank you.
9M4SLL LoTW uploaded up to 15/03/2013 0306z.

Over the last few weeks I have received about 100 emails saying:
“I have had a HDD failure and need the dates and times of my QSOs”
It is impossible for me to know which emails are genuine and which are not, many are clearly seeing their call in Club Log and not having noted down the details and are clearly not aware that they have been logged.
It is YOUR responsibility to correctly log your QSOs and to back up to ADIF regularly just in case of a HDD failure. Please do not email me asking for such information as this breaches the integrity of my logs and my work.
So, I am sorry to report, I am NOT permitted to give out this data.
On 9 January I sent you some brief information about the 9M4SLL Spratly DXpedition which will take place between 10 and 18 March, and promised more details later. Here now is some further information.
Unfortunately Christian, EA3NT, had to withdraw from the DXpedition due to work reasons, but he has been replaced by two experienced Hungarian DXpeditioners: Pista, HA5AO, and George, HA5UK. The other operators are John, 9M6XRO; Steve, 9M6DXX; James, 9V1YC; Don, G3BJ; Tony, KM0O and Ben, N6MUF / DJ0YI (total 8 operators).
9M4SLL will operate with five stations simultaneously at peak times, using mainly Elecraft K3 and K2 transceivers plus full legal power linear amplifiers on all stations. The antennas will all be verticals and all will be sited within a few metres of the ocean. In particular we will have a Titanex V160E 27m (87ft) high vertical for 160 and 80m with a Pennant antenna for RX on those bands. Activity will be on 160 to 10m, CW, SSB and RTTY. There will be no 60 metre operation as that is not permitted by the Malaysian licence.
The QSL Manager is Tim, M0URX, and direct or bureau QSLs can be requested by OQRS from his website at http://m0urx.com/oqrs. Logs will be uploaded to LoTW as soon as possible after the end of the DXpedition – within a few days. We plan to upload to an online log once per day during the DXpedition. Further information, including suggested operating frequencies, can be found on the 9M4SLL page on M0URX’s website at http://m0urx.com/9m4sll

147 letters will be posted on Monday 25th February 2013, mostly V26BM & VP2MSW.
Bureau QSL cards will be sent to World Bureaus in May.
This is a reminder that when using OQRS to request your direct or bureau QSL. Please mark your log book that the QSL has been requested. I also suggest that you note down the date and amount paid.
The reason for this advice is to STOP you requesting the QSL over and over again.
The QSL cards for V63ZM. KH2/G3ZEM and 9U4U are expected to be posted out during April.
Please do not expect that just because you paid by OQRS, the QSL cards to arrive in ten days. THEY WILL NOT. First I have to wait for the images to be gathered from the team members, QSL cards have to be designed and printed and only once I have the QSL cards here can I then post the QSL cards out.
If your QSO is not on log of V63ZM or 9U4U please note that I will NOT be accepting or dealing with any emails until I receive the logs AFTER the DXpedition.
You must try to work them again. If it is not in log then it is NOT a two way QSO it is as simple as that!
