the fourth Africian expedition D44TVG/D44TVD |
| On 3 - 7 November another African expedition took place. Callsigns were D44TVG on 70 cm and D44TVD on 13, 9 and 6 cm bands. We worked with them on all four bands, of which 9 and 6 cm was the first OK connection. Unfortunately, Hermann was not able to setup 3 cm equipment. |

The third Africian expedition ZS6EME |
| 23rd and 24th October a third African expedition on 3 and 6 cm took place under the ZS6EME call. Due to local interference at low elevation, ground and wide spread, only QRA64D QSOs succeeded. CW QSO failed. Weak CW signals spread to about 200 Hz are not readable. The QSO on 3 cm was the first ZS-OK. |

Expedition 3DA0MB |
| With today's 3 cm on QRA64D mode and CW QSOs with another African expedition 3DA0MB we worked with 6 bands; on 5 of them for the first time in OK. |

EA9LZ expedition |
| Today's morning QSO on 6 cm with EA9LZ we made Zdenek expedition also on the fifth band. This made it possible to meet the digital WAC conditions on 3 and 6 cm and CW WAC to 3 cm. QSOs on 3 and 6 cm are the first from OK. |

Rex VK7MO has completed this year's MW expedition on 24-GHz from OF78. |
| Rex VK7MO has completed this year's MW expedition around VK8 and VK6. He again activated 24 GHz from OF78. With this QSO, we have all 10 fields in VK at 10 and 24 GHz. Our QSO was followed by Charlie G3WDG. Our balance is 35 new locators on 10GHz and 3 on 24 GHz. |

MW part of the ARRL EME Contest |
| MW part of the ARRL EME Contest took place during this weekend. We participated in the 3 cm band. 22 QSO were compledet in good conditions; from which 10 were CW, initials are SP3XBO and 557RA as #117. We also made 12 JT4F or QRA64D QSOs; new digital initials are UT2EM, K6QPV and WA3LBI expedition to DE as 10th US State on 3 cm and VK7MO from OF76 field #148. OZ7Z decoded us on QRA64D -11 but because of his reduced power we haven't completed QSO. |

Rex VK7MO activates 24 GHz |
| Today, Rex VK7MO first activated 24 GHz with its 1.13 m parabolic and 20 W output power on his journey this year. After initial trouble when passing through a humid atmosphere, it was possible to complete QSO from OH field only after an elevation above 25° and then simply from OG field as another new field. The same program was used QRA64D and CFOM as well as 3 cm. This band is not so easy as 10 GHz. |

July 24th 2017 |
The Rex VK7MO has begun his this year expedition around VK8 and VK6. |
| Today we were able to work with Rex from the non-activated locators PG67 and PG77 on 3 cm. Both with JT4F and with us new modem QRA64D. Furthermore, we used the Doppler Offset Compensation System CFOM - Constant Frequency on the Moon. |
