  1. Hello Vlad,
    Thank you for the QSOs from 9U4WX. I got NEW BADS, 80 and 40m on CW.
    Your CW operation was very excellent.
    Regarding 9Q, I still need 160, 80, 40, 15, 12m Bands on CW or SSB.
    I am looking foward to make QSOs on the Bans, even I wii be busy days on business.
    So I sent some donation to you by paypal.
    Take care and FB DX.

  3. Ciao, according to the photo, nice nature, no danger from crocodile or hippopotamus. But watch out for a snake in the grass or a leopard in a tree.
    Mainly come back healthy with 30000 QSOs cw. 73s, Bob.

    1. Hi Bob,

      the only danger here is mosquitoes and malaria at the Congo River, but fortunately the wet season begins with the end of September.
      I have a delay, surprise is never end.end.

  4. I tried to work you tonight on FT8, Aug 21 2023 at 23:40 UTC and Aug 22 at 0014 UTC

    we exchanged signal reports, both time a -06 from you to me and -10 from me to you. However we didn’t get a RR73 or 73 I got my frequency stepped on both times right after we exchanged reports so I am not sure if you tried to send a RR73 or if as a DX expedition do you normally send a 73?
    I will continue trying to complete the contact!

  5. Bonjour Vlad, contacté (assez facilement)sur 15/40 et 30mtrs ce matin. Y aura-t-il d’autres possibilités prochainement ?
    Bon trafic, au plaisir de vous retrouver.

    1. Hi Jacek ,
      thank you so much That pilleup is terrible. Everybody’s calling and nobody’s listening, no filter helps. The QSO rate drops unnecessarily. We have power drops from a small unstable hydroelectric plant I have to deal with radio resets and PA
