Phil, G3SWH and Richard (Dick on CW), G3RWL will be active from Mayotte between February 26th and 5th March 2009. Mayotte counts as AF-027 for IOTA purposes.
The 2003 "Most Wanted" survey by 425 DX News shows Mayotte at #121 for DXCC purposes. We will both use the single callsign of FH/G3SWH.
Our activity will be mainly on CW on all bands 80-10 meters.
There may be some 160 metre CW activity, but this will be entirely subject to QRN, antenna space and local site conditions, so there are no promises. Richard may also operate some RTTY towards the end of the trip. Propagation permitting, we plan to have two stations on the air for as many hours every day as is possible.
Our main objective is to work as many European, North American and ROTW stations on as many bands as possible. QSL via G3SWH, either direct with SAE and adequate return postage (recommended), via Phil's web site for a bureau reply or via the
bureau.
