Repost: D68Z – Comoros

📡 Callsign: D68Z
📍 Location: Moroni, Comoros
🗓️ Dates: March 3–31, 2025 (extended from original March 18 end date)
👩‍💻 Operator: Elvira, IV3FSG
📶 Modes: CW, SSB, FT8, FT4
📬 QSL via: IK2WAD, LoTW | Logs on Club Log

Elvira (IV3FSG) signs off from her Comoros DXpedition with nearly 50,000 QSOs in the log, heartfelt reflections, and a powerful message about the human side of ham radio. Originally set to end mid-March, the activation has been extended through March 31st or possibly April 1st, bringing even more opportunities for worldwide contacts.

🏝️ Highlights:

• HF band operation with a 60m dipole, 6m delta-loop, and DX Challenger vertical

• Real-time Club Log uploads and livestreaming (internet permitting)

• Youth mentorship: Three local students learned antenna setup and pileup techniques under Elvira’s guidance—part of their prep for YOTA Summer Camp 2025 (France)

🗣️ Elvira’s Message:

“Each QSO has been a bridge to new friends, new cultures, and new stories… This amazing ham radio community goes far beyond just being on air.”

📸 Photos: On-air action, antenna builds, youth mentoring, and scenic Comoros moments.

🎯 Note to DXers: Some QSOs may not appear on Club Log due to poor local internet—be patient and check again post-expedition for full log uploads.

👏 A big thank you to Elvira and her team for this meaningful activation from D68Z. One that combined technical achievement, international friendship, and youth engagement.
