V73WW - DXpedition update

The past two days have brought heavy rain and thunderstorms, resulting in very high QRN levels, particularly on the low bands. Aurora activity is also affecting our signal paths through the north, adding to the complexity.

Participation in the ARRL CW contest has been successful, with 3.5k QSOs logged and uploaded to Clublog and LOTW. Although this was not a full-time effort, we managed to work many stations beyond the USA and Canada.

Despite the challenging conditions, we continue operations as weather permits. We aim to return to 160 meters as soon as QRN levels become manageable. We are also QRV on 6 meters.

High bands experienced massive pileups, with 35% of our logged QSOs from Europe across all bands. After SSB pileups, our voices are recovering, and we are prepared for more action. Antenna checks and maintenance are conducted every morning after high tide, including cleaning salt from insulators and making necessary repairs to ensure optimal performance.

We are committed to daily uploads to Clublog, with a full and final log to be published after the DXpedition. If you find any missing QSOs, please email us (info (at) next-generation-dx.com), but be patient as our internet access is limited, and responses may be delayed. While there is no livestream at the moment, work is in progress.

Thank you for your support and understanding. We look forward to making more QSOs with all of you!

V73WW - DXpedition Update: Better Low-Band Conditions, RTTY Operation Coming Soon

The V73WW DXpedition team is pleased to report progress from our QTH on Majuro Atoll. Our operations on the 160m and 80m bands are turning to be successful. We’ve experimented with various RX antennas to optimize our reception capabilities.

The weather has been favorable, resulting in reduced QRN. However, the constant wind and waves continue to challenge our antenna setups. To ensure optimal performance, we conduct daily antenna maintenance at low tide, reinforcing masts and securing equipment against the elements.

While the DXpedition is focused on radio operations, daily life here includes more than just QSOs. As we are located on our own island, a part of the team recently made another grocery trip to Delap. Cooking various meals a day for 6 hungry operators and cleaning are part of our routine, adding an extra layer of challenge to this expedition.

We are steadily advancing toward our goal of 60,000 QSOs and are eager to make many more contacts with operators worldwide in the remaining days. In line with this objective, we are excited to announce that RTTY operations will start soon. Please refer to our planned frequencies and modes in our detailed band plan available on our website: bandplan

Our internet connection has become more stable, allowing us to provide real-time updates. The live log is now accessible on Clublog. We are committed to transparency and upload QSOs to LOTW at least once daily. If you notice any missing QSOs or discrepancies, please don’t hesitate to contact us at (info (at) next-generation-dx.com), though replies may be delayed.

We extend our gratitude to the global amateur radio community for your continued support and enthusiasm. Your participation fuels our dedication to this DXpedition, and we look forward to making many more contacts in the days to come.
