DXpedition to Swaziland

Canceled !, see Lesotho

We had so much fun the last time in Swaziland in 2003 that we decided to go back again. Our towers, antennas, logistical support, licensing and all in country transportation is provided by African DX Safaris - Andre ZS6WPX.

Our goal is to operate around the clock on all bands on CW, SSB and RTTY will be our primary modes. Other special modes like SSTV and PSK upon request. We will try to operate in the General band segments as much as we can. We intend to spend every evening on the low bands from 30 to 160 meters. We have receive antennas and power AMPs available where permitted. Watch this WEB site daily for updates on our next evenings operation.

DXpedition Logs can be checked from QTH (Home) on this site. Enter your call and all 3DA logs for 2003 and 2004 DXpeditions will be checked for a match. The logs will be updated daily as Internet access permits. Each operator will be using their own call signs as follows.

Dave Anderson, K4SV is 3DA0SV

Neil King, VA7DX is 3DA0WC

Our Pilot station is Stephen Grose, K4YL. He will be in contact with the DXpedition daily. If you have suggestions or would like a special mode please send an email to Stephen at Stephen Grose, K4YL.
