Section 1 DXCC

DXCC still a great challenge for must of us . Probably you should know that this is the most wanted award. When you have already credited at least 329 countries you can apply for the Honor Roll. Attaining the DXCC Honor Roll represnts the pinnacle of DX achievement:

Section 2 DX’peditions

Over past 4 years, I remember the “biggest” “pile-ups” on HF at our favourite bands. I decide FO0AAA, K5K, 3D2CI  operations were really the best. I don’t know why but in my point view they were the best.  

Section 3 Western Sahara Desert 2003.

I must say that S05X adventure that I’ ve the privilege to took part . Make me a big change on my point of view concerning DX and operation. In fact it was a great experience, off course if you are a contester is more easy your adaptation.

Here some audios files:

s05x1   s05x2    s05x4

Nowadays I really understand how is difficult to plan and prepare a International DX’pedition.   

If you want to know all story, please take a look on

Section 3 Working Czech Republic Provinces

If you interesting on awards, I recommend the PRAHA AWARD and also OK COUNTIES AWARD. Different categories Mix, CW and Phone also on VHF. If you are a contester and participating on annual OK/OM DX contest you can find “rare” counties.                Most of all Czech Stations use the QSL Bureau

Section 4 What is this?

I define DX'er a person with a "contagious disease" like a hunter this person is always insatisfied. Spend almost the time on the radio looking for a "RARE ONE" . DX means "radio contact at long distance" so we can say the DX'er is a operator looking for contacts at long distance. If you like DX , you have this "disease" you are alone at your radio schak but you have company in the radio.  

Section 5 Working on a team!

This is one of the great experiences.Working on a Team, here each one as your own responsabilities , each operator as one of the different  areas: antennas, equipments, computer and logging, computer interface, filters, Power Amplifiers, electric power              (including  alternative power by generator).                                          All details must be observe.     Everything you learn during many years you can contribute for the  sucessfull on this Multi operation as Contest or on DX'pedition.   But, the most important thing is that you learn a more and more with pratice . I recomend for everyone this  interesting experience.           

Remember integrated on a Team you have the chance to demonstrate  your capacibilities in specified area. If you know more confortable on area you can study and upgrade your knowkledge on this specified area for future operations.              Enjoy Contest and Dx'peditions and  If anyone want to envite you, don't refuse .  

Section 6 Public Service Emergency Radio !

This is another one great experience. Past 5 years some amateur radio operatores were envolved on "Field Day" for Emergency Radio Services. With lot of exeperience the Amateur radio operatores are the correct operatores for testing Radio Emergency Services for Protection Civil operations.  Like RACES or ARES Working on diferent Teams, operatores are prepared on all areas helping other services for comunications through radio.
