Access to the main functions of www.425dxn.org is provided by the 425DXN App
for Android. It is available on Google Play - free of charge, no ads. Enjoy!
425 DX NEWS MAGAZINE ---> The July 2023 issue is available for download at
https://www.425dxn.org/. [TNX IZ3EBA]
INDEXA WORLDWIDE QSO PARTY ---> Grown from a few people loaning equipment to
DX travellers to an organization that has sponsored hundreds of DXpeditions
to dozens of DX entities around the world, the International DX Association
is turning 40 years old in September.
To commemorate this anniversary, INDEXA sponsors a worldwide on the air
celebration, the "INDEXA Worldwide QSO Party". The event will run on 2-10
September on 160, 80, 40, 20, 15 and 10 metres SSB, CW, and RTTY. This event
is open to all radio amateurs, INDEXA members and non-members alike.
The objective is to work as many INDEXA members, INDEXA Officials, and as
many non-INDEXA members as possible in as many U.S. states, Canadian
provinces, and DXCC countries as possible.
A user defined contest module is available for use in the N1MM Logger+
logging programme which will log each QSO, track multipliers, and calculate
your score. See https://indexaqsoparty.com/ for detailed information.
TX5S ---> The Perseverance DX Group's DXpedition to Clipperton Island (18
January - 1 February 2024) [425DXN 1673] will have two operating camps: one
for CW/Digital/Satellite/EME and one for SSB/Digital. "The camps will be
separated by about 500 meters, with CW located at the main campsite and SSB
being the distant camp. The combination of distance, bandpass filters,
horizontal and vertically polarized antennas at both camps will enable
simultaneous operation on the same band". The power grid will consist of six
generators (five units on-line 24/7 and one spare); WiFi networking will
link the camps and TX5S will have at least one Starlink terminal online
24/7, so logs will be uploaded to M0URX.com at least once per day.
The nineteen person team consists of sixteen experienced radio operators,
one scientist each from the University of French Polynesia and the Universi-
ty of Orleans, and one environmentalist from the Association la Passion-
Clipperton (France).
The fundraising campaign is underway: "our goal is always to split the
expedition funding approximately equally between the expedition operators
and the DX community - organizations and individuals. At the moment we still
have a long way to go to reach that goal", the team's Press Release #5
states. As most bills must be paid before the team sails, donations are
gratefully accepted: see https://clip.pdxg.net/donate/. You can also follow
TX5S on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tx5s2024.
