[NEWS] –
As this DX project gathers more individual support, DX-World is happy to become the official media channel for 3G0XQ.
Today, we received news about planned 6m activity. After having a discussion with the team, the Magic Band will be covered during the activity. A 5 element yagi antenna + 500w amplifier will be used.
[PRESS RELEASE #1, MAY 19] –
We are happy to announce to the DX community that this project is being conducted and planned by Felipe XQ7IR for the last 4 years of intense work. All licenses will be published on the website and will be submitted to ARRL for DXCC approval – prior to the activity being on air.
It is important to emphasize that this activity will be carried out by "a single man on the island”. This imposes a lot of restrictions, and for better understanding shall be considered a DX activity rather than a DXpedition.
An International Team of very experienced Amateur Radio operators is helping behind the scenes with technical support and operational knowledge in order to make this activity a very successful one.
The dates are between October – November 2025. Stay tuned about dates – they will be informed in upcoming press releases. More news and information will be published on this website.
