Access to the main functions of www.425dxn.org is provided by the 425DXN App
for Android. It is available on Google Play - free of charge, no ads. Enjoy!
IOTA NEWS ---> The logs for the IOTA Contest 2019 island stations have now
been added to the IOTA database and are available for QSO matching. IOTA
Management is "waiting for further information from B2/BY1CQ, BI4IX, DL0SOP,
R0MZ/P, SA7J, SP3A, SQ6NEJ and SV8/LZ1ABC before these activations can be
accepted". Record-holders who have made IOTA contacts in an IOTA contest
after 2003, can claim credit for them without submitting QSLs, provided
that the contact details match. Go to https://iota-world.org/, log in,
select "Add Contest QSOs" under the "My IOTA" tab, and then upload your .cbr
or .log file(s).
VP8/VP8DXU ---> Beginning on 24 October, team members will meet near Palo
Alto (California) "to consolidate, integrate, test and pack the equipment
for its transport to Punta Arenas, Chile".
Similar to their Ducie Island (VP6D) plan, "the antenna team designed a
strategy that considers Signy Island's location and topography. Vertical
Dipole Arrays will be directed towards Europe, over water. For other
geographies the topology is less suitable for VDAs so instead Moxons will be
used. Low band vertical antennas will be used for all geographies".
As for fundraising, 44 clubs/foundations and over 350 individuals have
supported the project so far. "We still have a long way to go", the team
says, "but we're encouraged by the response. If you or your club aren't
listed on our website, please consider a donation".
Read the latest Press Release (#7, 11 October) on https://sorkney.com/.
WAG & JOTA ---> Participants in this weekend's Worked All Germany Contest
are reminded that, in order to reduce interference with scout stations
