Now QRT!

After a total of 4,042 QSOs, all continents and 100 DXCC entities were worked during my holiday in the Maldives. Apologies to everyone who tried to call me and didn't get through, I had a lot of local QRM (sometimes S7-8 on 20m) which meant I could not copy everyone who was calling me. Congratulations to those who managed a QSO with me on all 4 bands I worked (40m, 20m, 17m and 15m), I was surprised by how many people managed it!

QSL info: Logs have now been uploaded to LoTW, eQSL and QRZ.com, if you use any of these services you should see that your QSO has been confirmed. If not, and you think I might have made an error, send me an email with QSO time in UTC and I will investigate.

If you'd like a paper QSL card through the bureau, please send me a card via my normal callsign G4PWO after checking that you're actually in the log using the below log search.

You can also request a card directly by sending a self-addressed envelope big enough for a standard QSL card plus $2, £2 or €2 to: Phil Anderson, 16A Orde Hall Street, London WC1N 3JW, United Kingdom.

DXCC: I have verified my callsign with ARRL so all QSOs will get DXCC credit.

Cards will be sent out later in the year once I know how many I need to get printed.

Radio: Elecraft KX2, Amplifier: Expert 1.3K-FA, Aerial: 12m mast right next to the sea, supporting end fed half wave verticals for 20m-15m and a 0.275λ vertical with short radials for 40m.
