Are you aware of the DX Code of Conduct?

This DXpeditioners’ Code is to help maximize the fun for all participants. As the DX operator, you play a critical role in pileups: you are “in charge”. Dealing with an unruly pileup of discourteous operators who have forgotten about ethical behavior is NOT fun. So it makes sense to plan and train ahead of time on how best to deal with the situation

Good operators at the DX end and courteous behavior at the other end of the QSO can greatly increase the total number of QSOs logged. It has been demonstrated that pileups can be kept reasonably under control if the DX operator follows certain ‘rules’. Luckily, some top operators have given us the benefit of their experience. Please peruse these suggestions on this link and bear it in mind when calling the many Dxpeditions that are currently active.

Its November again and having a couple of days down at the Club in GW Land.

Listen out for MC0SHL on the air but in all likelyhood I don’t expect to be on air much at all as I have other things planned but you never know!

Also have a browse around the Club website when you have a few minutes.

You can find the website by clicking on the log top left of this message or from the left sidebar of the webpage.

Qsl Cards have now arrived from Gennady UX5UO for the V31MA callsign.

Qsl Cards have been processed and Direct requests are in the mail later today. Bureau cards also processed and will go with next shipment (see http://www.m0oxo.com/bureau-posting-news.html and details will appear here when next shipping takes place).

Your Qsl Cards are not required so where possible, please do not send through the bureau and use OQRS.

The fastest way to receive any Qsl Card I manage is to request them via M0OXO OQRS.
