Today this was posted by the team going out to Namibia. Hopefully they will be on the air this weekend for some fun chasing them. Good luck and safe trip my friends.
V55LA Namibia
Dear All,
Our team has been working tirelessly to prepare for this exciting adventure, and we’re pleased to share that the flight tickets are confirmed, our QTH in Namibia is secured, and some of us are updating our vaccinations to ensure a safe journey.
We’re also proud to unveil our brand-new V55LA logo, beautifully designed by our longtime friend, Miguel EA5ZD. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to finalize our preparations.
DXpedition Dates
Departure: 30th October 2024
Return: 11th November 2024
During this period, the V55LA team will be active on all HF bands (CW, SSB, Digi), with a particular focus on the low bands. Our team consists of experienced operators skilled in “human modes”, so you can expect to hear plenty of activity on both CW and SSB throughout the expedition where it is needed for most of you.
Our goal is to make contact with as many operators as possible so Digi will be run too of course, and we’ll be doing our utmost to make this a memorable and enjoyable DXpedition for everyone.
