Between March 26th and April 15th, Jacek SP5EAQ was QRV as A3EAQ in SSB only...
Tonga is a rare entity here, I only worked A35YZ DX-pedition on 30M CW on their last day, as I was away for job, so I was very interested by this holiday style operation... I must admit I was stuned by Jacek's signal : alway 5/9+ !
I was happy to work him from 12M to 20M SSB for 4 new bands and a new mode for Tonga Islands... Thanks a lot !

Hi all, 5W0M will go QRT on Wednesday at about 0200UTC, it's time to add some missing slots !
Unluckily, it appears my call has been busted for my 30M CW QSO, I didn't see this before on the online log, and it only let me this morning and tomorrow morning to try it again, IF they are QRV on this band AND at the good time for me...
Well, this morning I could even add the 40M CW for a new band and the 20M SSB 2 minutes later for a new slot !
To be continued... good luck to all !
Hi, I just got my April Bureau QSLs, a good package again, where I could find 3 new IOTAs confirmations :
- YB8Y from IOTA OC-221 Kei Islands confirming our 2 QSOs on 15M & 30M CW
- EJ0PL from IOTA EU-103 Little Saltee Island confirming our 20M SSB QSO
- and VE2/F8BMG/P from IOTA NA-177 Bonaventure Island confirming our 20M CW QSO
They are my confirmed IOTAs #362, #363 & #364.
Thanks to all for QSLing...
In the same time, I am about to send another big package to the Bureau !

Hi all, yesterday evening very first DX opening of the year on 6M here with PY1RO from Brazil !
Coming here 549, it appears he was stronger in South & Central Europe according to cluster reports... but no matter, the QSO is done and it is my 72th DXCC on the Magic band !! Hope this season will bring many others !

Hi, the 5W0M chase continues here...
Since last Thursday, I could add the 12M CW + SSB for a new band, the 17M CW for another new band and just now the 15M RTTY for a new mode !
There too, the high bands are worked, will have to be lucky for working them on 30M and down...
Good luck to all !
