My QSO with Solomon islands 135DA/0

    Recently Darren 43DA001 started another DXpedition to the Solomon Islands, more precisely to the island of Malaita, with the callsign 135DA/0. And this morning, April 7, 2025, at 06:57 UTC, I managed to establish a QSO with Darren with rapports of 55/55. This is excellent! Thanks to Darren for another meeting with him, and a new DXCC country for me!

My QSO with 185AT/DX, Comoros Islands.

    At the beginning of March 2015, the expedition to the Comoros Islands 185AT/DX, operated by Daniele 1AT057, started. From the very beginning of the expedition, I repeatedly tried to establish QSO with 185AT/DX, but there was no propagation in the southern direction. Sometimes I managed to hear the presence of the station, and receive fragments of phrases. The propagation was terrible all these days, and the opportunity to conduct QSO decreased each time.

   Everything changed on March 24, 2025, when I was once again monitoring the work of the expedition, and then the signal from 185AT/DX suddenly increased to 53, and I immediately decided to take advantage of this, luckily making a call towards Daniele. What a surprise it was to hear a response and confirmation of the QSO, by the way, Daniele works split 5 up. Having conducted a QSO with the Comoros Islands, I received a new 165 DXCC for myself.
