T31EU team with the EUDXF flag
Here we have the T31EU team posing with the EUDXF flag:
Despite terrible propagation they are working hard to give many of us the contact with this very much needed DXCC.
Just 2 more days to get them…..
T31EU Update
The EUDXF supported DXpedition to Central Kiribati – Kanton Island – T31EU keep many busy. The signals are minimal, especially in western Europe, and it is not easy to make a QSO during this period of lower propagation. The team on the island does everything within their possibilities, but nature can not be controlled. A small update from the team:
- Yesterday was a better day in particular 30m and 40m.
- The generator causes interference on the RX Beverage. The team added additional K9AY receiving antennas to overcome this issue and further improve reception at the lowbands.
- On all bands there is high static QRN which makes the reception not easy.
- The team is working with 2 High Power stations, they lost one amplifier. So a possible third signal comes from a 100W radio.
- Tonight they hope to pass the 30K mark in the log.
T31EU
A short update from the team:
- The high QRM-QRN level due to the heavy rain the past few days was giving them trouble.
- Due to technical reassons they can only run 2 high power stations for the moment.
- Now the 160 contest is over they will be back on topband.
- The “Kanton Island Internet Café” is a 15 minute walk from the shack and has limited opening hours, so log upates are limited.
