there is much data out there concerning it.
I can remember years ago when the major expeditions were expected to

To the best of my knowledge, the team G3WSXW/G3TXF never asked for financial
support.
But they always QSL-ed 100 %, direct or via buro, and uploaded to LOTW. A

Don's talk was about the incredible costs and the UP FRONT MONEY that is
required BEFORE the Antarctic DXpeditions leave home, NOT about any money
needed/required for QSLing. IF you divide the total cost by the number of
Q's, historically it has been just shy of $5/Q. It will be MORE in
Hi Tom:
I agree with your stance on timely LOTW submissions. I support the 6 month
rule.
However, it is your choice to ask for a confirmation now or wait for it. The
Colvin Award (administered by the ARRL) states 12 months uploads.
Complaining about the $5 is that red herring.

Maybe some should be. However, I doubt that the DXCC Desk has the
balls to disqualify a high profile DXpedition organizer.
Seriously!

I didn't buy too much at Dayton. I ogled the new transceivers though.
They look like they will take at least several months to learn how to
use!
I bought a few mystery boxes that are supposed to work in the
microwave range of frequencies. They were practically given away so I
will at least have
I was there Friday only. Saw the entire flea market and everything
inside. I'm sure I missed something. Bought a K5 Logikey. Have K1 and
K3, what the hell. Advantage over K3 is it takes batteries. K1 did but
for some reason, they dropped that option with the K3. Great keyers.
Also
I went to Dayton 8 years in a row. My wife is from the area We stayed with her
brother. The last year I went was in 1991. Now we
have her family reunion around the 4th of July and we go there. Being poor
folk, we can only afford one trip up there a year. It is
a 9 hour drive from here to her
