Western Sahara Desert Dxpedition 2003

17. April, the international SO5X team built new antennas, with which they achieve excellent results, mainly due to excellent openings towards North America (also at 160m) and Japan.

First connections (approx 15600 contacts have been made 15. which will take place next Saturday 23:45 UTC to approx 18. April 00:58) have also been uploaded and made available via the Internet, where you can search their log at http://www.pagus.it/s05x/, on which you will also find clear statistics. New data will be added throughout this expedition, pictures and links to their site, in helping the nearby United Nations camp.

morning 19. April will be SO5X QRB for all European stations at 15 meters. Operators participating in this expedition beg everyone, to listen to them, especially when they call specific places, to which you do not belong.

The main operators are Maurizio, I1-21171 / IZ1CRR (i121171@425dxn.org) to Mauro, I1JQJ ( i1jqj@425dxn.org). You can also send them an email, don't forget to put in the subject “SO5X”.

Oliver MW3SDO wishes you good luck in connection with this dx-expedition.

P.S.
I've done happily already 2 connections with them, 8W QRP SSB at 12m to 15m.
