Nigel (G3TXF/OE5TXF) and Ian (G3WVG) were recently active from the Falkland Islands as VP8TXF and VP8CIW respectively, during the RSGB Commonwealth Contest held on March 8–9, 2025. Their operation ran from March 4 to 10, including both contest and peri-contest activity.
QSLs for both calls are available via OQRS. A photo of the station setup was shared via the CDXC (Chiltern DX Club) reflector, with credit to VP8WOS.
Notably, some QSOs included 10m CW and 17m SSB, appreciated by operators worldwide. A short YouTube video by G0KOM captured VP8CIW’s 10m CW signal in action.
Stay tuned for more DXpeditions from these experienced operators!
