After 24 hours of operation we have 5700 QSO’s in the log. Despite the poor conditions, we are very happy. From Monday we have a second location in the north of the island directly on the beach. When the rest of the team arrives we will set up 30m – 160m there. The location is perfect with clear views to the EU, USA and JA.ALL PICTURES BY DL8LAS FOR DX-WORLD[OCTOBER 10 / 11] –

Shortly after 0800z today, C21MM started activity from Nauru on 20 CW using an LZ beam antenna – recording below by DX-WORLD. Apparently, the team had a very hard day after arriving at 0500 local time with just two hours sleep, difficult logistics and 30C heat with very high humidity making antenna work difficult. Here’s the shack prior to the first CQ – nice cap

C21MM team arrived Nauru as did all luggage. Pictures are of their sunrise scene, by Andree, DL8LAS, who has also dedicated himself to being DX-World’s photographer from the island! Standby for more great pics and videos in the coming days!

C21MM team part 1 is currently waiting at the gate @ Brisbane airport. Arrival is scheduled tomorrow morning (local time). Reminder: Limited radio activity will occur during the next days as still some things need to be addressed once there.
