Our trip started
for 19AT066 at 22/1 and for 16AT137 23/1 with a flight to Santiago de
Chile, via Paris (14) and Buenos Aires(4). In Santiago we did stay some
day's in company of station "Danky" and his lovely wife. Thanks for
their hospitality, good food, transport and for the trip to Vina Del Mar
and Valparaiso. Next time for shure we meed them again in Santiago.
Before we took a flight to easter island, we did buy the most inportant
food and drinks, because the prices are two to three times more
expancive in 144 div. than on the mainland. With " Lan Chile" we landed
after 5 hours in 144 , where Luis ( 144AT102 ) was waiting us
at the airport , for a warm welcome with an "carane tiare" or an
necklace of flowers, the weather was very nice from the first moment (
28 degrees ). Their after we did meed the rest of Luis family and had a
very nice opening mail. ( Luis and Ana- Maria are super cocks ) . After
the mail we starded direct with our dx-pedition, strange was to see some
dx raport before we even have giving the first call out. Well their have
been many fake before, but we where happy to bring the real 144 on the
air.
During our dx
pedition we had 70 % of our time 5/9 QRM on every split, but most of all
disappointed that some stations don't understand the word stand bye our
courtesy. So we had to put 5 stations in the blacklist , sorry. We are
happy to see many QRP stations in the log, working us with 20 watt. We
had every day good conditions to Europe and America, but Pacific and
Africa was very low. We want to thank Luis, Ana, Gorgette, Cotte,
Sussana, Rafa, Melo for their good hospitality and the unforgetable time
on Rapa Nui. We hope to visit you again in 5 years ,but we want
everybody who wants to plan an holiday our dx pedition in 144 division
that he is more than welcome at Tahai, you can contact Luis than via :
tahai23@yahoo.com
We closed down
our station with 2284 stations logged into 73 divisions and worked 5 of
6 world zones. This are the DXCC'S :
1/ 2/ 3/ 4/ 5/ 6/
7/ 9/ 10/ 12/ 13/ 14/ 15/ 16/ 17/ 18/ 19/ 20/ 21/ 22/ 24/ 25/ 26/ 29/
30/ 31/ 32/ 33/ 34/ 35/ 36/ 37/ 41/ 43/ 45/ 47/ 49/ 54/ 56/ 62/ 68/ 69/
72/ 75/ 79/ 81/ 93/ 104/ 106/ 108/ 112/ 122/ 123/ 136/ 137/ 141/ 143/
158/ 161/ 163/ 165/ 166/ 172/ 186/ 195/ 207/ 232/ 266/ 268/ 310/ 327/
328/ 329
We are very happy
with this result, we hope to confirm all qsl's in the summer. We did
return to chile where Steven 19AT066 did stay with 32AT140 Edmundo in La
Serena for a couply day's more of vacation. My station has some more
days of vacation left and was active like 32/16AT137 till the 15 th.,
unlucky propagation was not so good Chile like it was on Easter island,
so i had only 56 stations logged in 17 division. For our next we are
thinking about activating some IOTA'S from 32 division our another most
wanted DXCC.
Iorana, bye for
now
