The QSL-Route is via DL7DF either direct to:

Sigi Presch
DL7DF
Wilhelmsmuehlenweg 123
D-12621 Berlin
Germany

or via the German QSL bureau DARC to DL7DF.

If you prefer a direct QSL please send a SASE and 1 IRC or 3 US$ for outside of Europe and 1 IRC or 2 US$ for mail within Europe. When sending IRC's please check the expiration date, the new ones are valid until the end of 2009.

Any donations are very welcome and needed for the high shipping costs.
If you do not provide the right return postage or a self addressed envelope, we reply via the buro. Please only one call sign per letter! If more than one, all additional cards go via the buro.

Postage needed for 1 envelope with 20 Gramm (FYI):
A letter within DL = 55 Euro Cent, a letter within Europe costs 70 Euro Cent, a letter outside of Europe is 1.70 Euro. 1 US$ is equal to 51 Euro Cent.

So please keep in mind that 1 US$ - due to the bad exchange rate between the US$ and the Euro - does not cover the postage needed for an overseas airmail letter or for a letter within Europe!

International Amateur Radio DXpedition to Easter Island

The XRØYA DXpedition to Easter Island will take place between October 31 and November 15, 2009. It will be a lightweight, small expedition led by 6 operators:

* SQ8X Stan
* SV2KBS Victoria
* NI1L Leszek
* CE6TBN Marco
* PA3C Aart
* SP7HOV Zbig

Thanks to fantastic support from Radio Club de Chile we will have a unique opportunity to activate Rapa Nui on 30 meters. Since the island is still most wanted on this band in Europe, 30m will be our priority.

The unique location, in conjunction with the ham radio hobby, is going to be our experience of a life-time. We are glad we will be able to share it with you live from the island.

Stan, SQ8X
