  • Final part of the jigsaw!

    This was a really historical moment to me today. One day I mentioned I’ve managed to work Vk9GMW from Lord Howe as VK9L/SQ8X (check their online log ;)  Today I managed to find a very end part of the Lord Howe puzzle as I’ve been fortunate to contact those guys at Mellish Reef from my home QTH after coming back home from Lord Howe Island with my 100 watts and vertical GP at almost the end of the Mellish Reef expedition! This feels like this is a sort of end chapter to the expedition I’ve been so fortunate to participate. We used to help those terrific guys while on route to Mellish Reef since Bill VK4FW has been to that entity and got some experience to share with them. We’ve been following their attempts all the time at LHI. This is why we all feel that much related to VK9GMW. It’s great, isn’t it! Can’t find any other words to describe it. Will remember this QSO forever. Million thanks go to George AA7JV and Tomi HA7RY for this unforgettable moment! Here comes the recording of our QSO:
