Thanks for the heads up!

How does this work?  Go into clublog, find FT8WW, enter my call in, If it finds my record, I STILL have to enter the date and time, then..what? Paypal for a card, or free to qsl buro??  Never did OQRS before.

If you've already uploaded your log info to ClubLog, you won't need to enter it. Otherwise, you'll need to enter the date and time for each QSO. Then proceed like any other PayPal purchase.

I'll probably hold off until we find out whether his permit to operate will be extended. I'd certainly try to add a few more bands if he can get back on the air again.

That is exactly what I was thinking.  From what I have heard there is a good chance he will be operating again and hopefully he gets permission to use a better antenna.

Seems like it should have been a simple request.  The fact that 4 days have come and gone without the extension is not sounding good.

Quite frankly, it doesn't sound like he actually wants to go to the trouble of putting up a better antenna.  Sounds like he is very okay with lesser antenna and using FT8 to compensate.  C'est la vie.

You obviously know nothing about how the French work,

You have insulted him so much why are you even interested,

Just wait another 20 years for a SSB guy to go there,

Just requested my card via OQRS, and added a donation as well. With only 3 more ATNOs possible for me, I don't mind giving a few dollars or Euros to say thanks for being there—in whatever mode or on whatever band.

Something I did notice was that several of my QSOs that came in from Clublog had bad dates and times associated with them. I changed the values from what was recorded in my log, refreshed the page and all was good, but it did catch me off-guard a bit.

I am extremely grateful for this new one. It sure wasn't looking promising for the first four days of Thierry's operation, but lady luck was finally on my side and the curse was broken, thanks in no small part to the Palos Verdes Sun Dancers doing their thing. Here's hoping he gets re-authorized for a longer period!

Ha - my ex wife is French and I lived for a time in Brittany.  So much for jumping to conclusions.

If the local Garrison leader wasn't able to approve it on site, its not looking good from my experience.  Time will tell.

This crowd certainly likes to jump to often wrong conclusions.  The list is endless.

I did my OQRS last night. I also noticed that some QSO details were already loaded in the OQRS form, but others weren't. The 20 m QSO data were correct.
I did OQRS for TN8T a few days ago, and noticed none of my QSO details were pre-loaded in the form. I had to load it from my log.
Previously I've not had to do this, as my QSO are uploaded to ClubLog when I log them in HRD.
I'm happy to have Crozet off the "Wanted" list.

Oh, its far from off the most-wanted list, but I'm sure it's been moved down a few pegs, thankfully.

Does QO-100 not count for DXCC Satellite? I'd have put it in the same basket as 60 m, which not all countries have access to. A bit like QO-100 which excludes much of the world. Admittedly, it does include a lot of the world, but nobody in Australia can use it, nor can we use 60 m.
