V73WW - DXpedition Update: Homeward Bound After Majuro Activation

The V73WW team has officially wrapped up operations in Majuro, departing on February 26th. In an interesting twist, we crossed the International Date Line en route to Hawaii, meaning we had the experience of living through February 26th twice!

We’re currently spending some well-earned downtime on Oahu, Hawaii, before continuing our journey back to Europe. Meanwhile, Braco E77DX is still on the air, actively participating in the ARRL SSB Contest under the callsign KH6J. Some of the team will be active as /KH6 as well.

For those awaiting confirmation, OQRS direct requests are now open via Club Log: Click here to request. Bureau cards will be available later through OQRS.

We’ll be arriving back in Europe on March 5th, at which point we’ll continue processing log requests and responding to emails. We sincerely appreciate your patience if you don’t receive an immediate response before then.

A heartfelt thank you to all our supporters—your encouragement and contributions made this activation possible!
