Latest update – I decided to go on-air from my temporary Naypyitaw QTH, prior to my trip back to Bangkok and move to a better location on my return. So I’m only using a very compromise antenna right now. However, as the band closed up for the night (Friday 23rd), I managed QSOs with several stations in Ukraine and with A45XR in Oman. Please look for my FT-8 signals over the weekend 24th/25th on 15 metres. I know it is CW/SSB contest weekend and I will NOT being using SSB, to avoid creating a pile-up. I’ll stick to digital for this weekend 🙂

Big thankyou to the DX team on 4B4B. Was nice yo say hello today good conditions and great signal 73 ZL2SDX Darren.

Thanks for Easter Island! I hope you have plans for a future expedition–next time would like to work you on some other bands. 73, Charles K4TIN

Why does my Trend Micro say that the TJ2TT web site is being blocked because it transmits malicious software or has been involved in a scam?

To avoid you wasting time searching for my signals right now, please note that I have to make a short trip back to Bangkok to pick up some items before I’ll be on the air.

I had so much fun at Z6 FT8 pileup and I didn’t take radio at Lanzarote missing RDXC, BARTG, WPX SSB 🙁 Local hams not interested. Boring sunshine only…

“This 2018 4B4B REVILLAGIGEDO IS Dxpedition to Socorro I is formed again by XE1B Mark who is very well experienced and know for his interest and willing to put again Revillagigedo on the air once more. Please support the Dxpedition, it’s been 7 years, since the last operation took place by XE1B, Marl. It’s been a long wait …” ???? Strange operation (called “DXPEDITION” only by the author himself). Before asking for money, it may be necessary to prove that efforts are being made. This guy don’t know that Europe exists, or maybe he is not interested in contacting Europe? Whenever I heard it (very weakly) on 20m, he only contacted the US or SA (next doors) and ASKED NOTHING ELSE even if only to try. I am very curious to see logs and especially statistics by continents for this one month activation called DXpedition …

“Et, pourquoi cette rédaction n’est pas aussi en langue française ?” Just because DX WORLD is a site for everyone in the world (so in English which is the international language).
