Like most major Dxpeditions, sponsorship is of extreme importance to help with the popularity and financial aspects of the Dxpedition. The majority of the 8Q7ZZ team are under 20 years of age, and it is a great challenge for us to obtain funds to help finance liabilities such as licences, insurance, QSL's, etc. Also, as the majority of the team are still in full time education, it is very difficult to finance such a trip - as the member will not be earning a suitable income. Therefore, it has been agreed that a proportion of the monies required can be obtained by sponsorship funds - of course this does not mean it is a free-be! We have all agreed to pay most of our costs.

If anyone can help, please contact me [email protected] . We will obviously provide a wide range of promotion for our sponsors including mention on this web site, mention on the QSL card, displays in the radio magazines, etc.

Below are our sponsors to date of which we are most grateful:
