EL2EL/4 – NEW IOTA AF-111

The QSL work for Brand New IOTA AF-111 DXpedition EL2EL/4 is under way. The QSL card has been designed and is currently being printed by Top Quality printer Max ON5UR. This design was initially published by DXworld on Social Media. 

 

 

 

 

 

One of the biggest aims of this DXpedition was to raise money for the MAF (Mission Aviation Foundation) and The locals of Liberia. This was done with a just giving page and OQRS donations. With £2000 raised before the DXpedition and ever increasing donations being made with QSL requests Via OQRS and direct letters. An Incredible effort! 

The team made almost 5000 QSO’s from the Brand New IOTA, So far we have had 500 QSL requests using QORS and less than 20 Direct letters. This is a very good outcome and a great for success for OQRS which is growing in popularity each and every year.

I Hope for All direct requests to be in the post within the next 10-14 days, LoTW has been uploaded. In the meantime there is plenty of DX to work whilst you wait. 

PJ4/M0SDV – QSL Preview

Finally after long delays of my own doing QSL cards for my PJ4/M0SDV in March are now in the printers. I hope to receive the cards and send them out within 10-14 days.

During my stay in Bonaire I made 1,600 QSO both CW and SSB. I also took part in CQ WPX as PJ4V (Click here to see results) I also activated Curacao as PJ2/M0SDV from the PJ2T station where I took part in the Russian DX Contest making around 600 QSO’s

QSL Via Clublog OQRS or Direct

 

Old Out of date IRC’s

Thank you to Ronald DL2DWC for the donation of 10 out of Date IRC’s included with his QSL request for EL2EL/4. United Radio QSL bureau returns out of date IRC’s in return for stamps which greatly helps our outgoing QSL Bureau service. 

Remember Don’t throw them away. Just 350 out of date IRC’s is enough to post 20,000 QSL cards to world IARU Bureau’s
