3Y0J - Bouvet Island is on the air

Well they've landed, have setup camp, and are transmitting.....but sadly I can't hear a thing :-(

I'll need to try harder. Their website is www.3y0j.no and you can find the dxpedition being spotted on dxsummit.fi

Reached the DXpedition on Banaba Island (T33A)

Pleasantly surprised to make it into Banaba Island tonight. There was a pileup on 40m with a lot of activity on and around the split frequencies with the added bonus of some deliberate interferenceas - everyone tried to get T33A into the log. I had no joy getting through the pileup but just as I was to call it a night the op changed their listening frequency and I was first on the new one and picked up the contact. The new Alinco can at least make it the 4 thousand kilometers to Kiribati in the central Pacific.

Been a while.....but got my first DXpedition in the log

Nearly a whole month since my last update and unfortunately work has kept me off the radio for a while. I have however managed to add in some additional countries with India, Indonesia, South Korea, Finland and now the DXpedition to Norfolk Island in the log.

VK9NT are running a DXpedition to Norfolk Island at the moment and I managed to get a solid contact on 40 metres. The VK9NT expedition page is http://vk9nt.odxg.org/index.html
