Maxim OH7O (ex-UA3LHB, ex-RV3DOS) celebrates his birthday at the beginning of September. And as a radio amateur, he gives himself a gift in the form of a DX expedition. Last year he went to the Pacific, where he only got T2M permits when he was on his way to Fiji (3D2YY), and he applied for and got YJ0YY when he was already on his way. Despite the very successful operation, there were nerves. Therefore, this year he tried something more reliable: XW4YY in Laos, where until September 11, 2025 SB will also FT8 módmi na pásmach 40, 20, 17, 15, 12 a 10 metrov. Pásma 80 m a 6 m nie sú oficiálne povolené, a nie je si istý, či dosiahne dostatočnú výšku pre 160 m pásmo. Spojenia z tejto expedície budú potvrdené prostredníctvom služby M0OXO OQRS.
