Hi Dimitri
Thank you for your kind comments regarding our QSO on USB. I guess it was a surprise to be called by G3UCQ (ex VS9SJF). I had a great time trying to crack the pileups and the 1st QSO on 17m cw was a real thrill. 12 slots in total.
And you used the Summerland Hotel where I stayed in 2002!! I always thought the roof would make a good aerial site.

Great operation !

I was REALLY pleased to work you on 20 CW and SSB. I worked 7o1aa/7o years ago, but that operation was never approved. For me, working 7o6T was the first contact that will put me on DXCC honor roll. I worked you both times with my 20 foot high 20M dipole and a KW.

I have been on 3 DX-peditions in the past and can really appreciate all your hard effort. Thanks again for everything you guys had to endure and in giving a “new one” to so many people.

73 and all the best, Bob, WG9L

Thanks for the operation – all that was done as a team and the individual efforts too.

Write it up as a book please – ebook or paper or both so people can buy it and support you for future ops.

It was the most fun I’ve ever had working a DX-pile up! TNX for all the hard work. Look forward to the next one.

What about all the Israel contacts that were ignored or logged with the wrong callsign? will those be added later?

I sent a “donation” via Pay Pal and its still unclaimed 6 days later. I hope they understand that the transaction number cannot be included in the comments box on Pay Pal because Pay Pal sends the number to you via email AFTER you have completed the Pay Pal transaction. So, I sent a separate email to UA3DX advising that I had made a donation and included the transaction number, but no reply.

Was anyone else able to complete the OQRS and get the money to them?

I am in their online log for two contacts.

K7QXG, Bob

Super DX-pedition. Now Yemen is in the books, 160-10meters, great signals everywhere. Amazing S9+ on 160. Congrats to all team members. CU from the next one!
