JI1FGX/DU9 Mindanao Diary IOTA OC-235 Camiguin Island(2009/09/06)
Here is the interface for CW that I was working on the other day
It's the same black as the radio, and the same black as the laptop, so I guess it looks pretty good.

Steel case made in China. The steel sheet was so thin that it was difficult to drill holes in it, but it is finished!

We have now communicated with 9 stations CW in 3 days!
Russia, Solomon Is, Sweden, Timor-Leste, France.
It's a very difficult pattern, where you keep on CWGet all the time, and only call the stations you can decode perfectly.
And writing a draft of the antenna for a separate volume of CQHAMRADIO
I write a little and then enjoy communicating with the radio, and it's hard to get going.
Today, there was a power outage for about 3 hours in the afternoon, and I couldn't use the radio, so I wrote all of this in one go!

Lily, brought from Japan, relaxing on the terrace
He seems to have become accustomed to life in Mindanao.
There are many stray dogs in this country, but dogs as pets seem to be rare.
These days, it is so popular that passersby call out "Lily!
last few daysJG1UKW's BlogWe were talking about the IOTADX pedition in

Jolo Island OC-174
Pangtaran OC-188

I was surprised at the number of names of islands I had never heard of, such as "The island of the sea," which I had never heard of.

However, when I asked Gigi about it, he said that it is difficult to go there because it is a Moslem residential area and there is a risk of terrorism and kidnapping.

So I looked into it and found that it is a famous resort area.Camiguin IslandThen it's a 6 hour drive and boat ride from my house.

IOTA OC-235 Camiguin Island


I've wanted to visit this island since I was working in Cebu in 2007, and IOTA OC-235 might be a good way to practice DX pedition!

However, it will be difficult to achieve this immediately, as we also need to prepare materials for transportation, coaxial cables, antennas, and so on.

We would be happy if someone from Japan could support us....
Antennas required for mobile operations, coaxial cables, 240V to 12DC power supplies, etc...
If I'm going to do a DXpedition anyway, I'd like an antenna like this.
