The Ducie Island DXpedition is about a week away. I'm fascinated by the fact that they are placing weathertight radio/amp enclosures on the island and that operators around the world will be operating them remotely 24/7. Three guys staying on a boat will refuel generators and maintain equipment once a day. |

VP6A (Ducie Island) is currently running F/H FT8 on 28.091 and 14.088. Today was the start of a 2-week trip, so be watching for them on SSB and CW as well.

I just had to wait until I could hear him clearly enough to make a QSO and then it was no problem. |

I already had Republic of the Congo and am embarrassed to admit that I didn't realize there were 2 Congos until I looked into this station. The wiki entry for the country and the ongoing turmoil make it a place I can't wait to never visit. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Emoto: The wiki entry for the country and the ongoing turmoil make it a place I can't wait to never visit. The team originally had different call signs for the province they planned to set up in. Then violence and unrest forced them to find a new QTH, which resulted in different call signs. I think they were originally 9Q3 and had to go to 9Q1. |

21.313.5 BD7MM - My first QSO with China!
 They are doing the ITU contest, so they want their signal report and YOUR ITU zone #. Unlike many contests, they do NOT want to know the number of QSOs you have made, so "001" is wrong. In case you don't know: https://www.icomamerica.com/en/amateur/amateurtools/2013_itu_cq_worldmaps.pdf |

Dem Rep of Congo is currently on 14.084. Only took me a minute and a half. Earlier on a different band they responded three minutes after I quit transmitting. At that point I lost my path to them they were unable to copy signal report to them.
Kazakhstan is/was on SSB not long ago. Got that one in the log for the first time. I've also added Sri Lanka twice and Iceland today on FT8. And Siberian Russia. Now Iceland on SSB. |

9Q1ZZ on 21.090 FT8 (F/H) at 23:32 on 07/10/23.
Easy pickings. I called one time and he responded. He's working mostly JA and EU but it looks like the USA has good propagation in there and a lot of guys here are getting called. Wow .. he just called CQ with no takers! The second time he called a few jumped on. This is a VERY good time to get that country on 15 meters if you need it. |

That's one of the great things about some of the digital modes: Unless the station is set up wrong in the software the call won't get transposed, misheard or anything. It's also not likely to not be logged since that is normally done automatically at the end of the contact. You might want to send their QSL guy (EA5RM) an email and mention it to him. As you said, they likely transposed someone else's call to yours. |
