Received a fun card today from ubiquitous Janez – S51DX, (Sierra 51 David X-ray). I’ve heard him on the air since becoming a ham in 2019. He was fun to hear but never had a QSO with him until this year’s WPX CW contest. So, I sent for his card. He claims he’s had over 800,000 QSOs! I don’t doubt him. He’s a solid, no-nonsense operator. I’m sure most of y’all have heard him and made some contacts.

He also enclosed a brochure on “Park of Military History,” which is a part of Slovenia’s largest museum complex. Interesting.

Last week or so I received a few cards from the bureau. That package included:

JA3BJZ – Kyoto FT8 15m

FT8WW – Crozet CW 20m

TO11A – Guadeloupe Island FT8 10m

OX/DO2YX – Greenland SSB – 20m

JA1CJL – Mack in Yamato-City, Kanagawa FT8 15m. Mack and I have had several QSOs under my old callsign KI5DJP, and we exchanged cards through the bureau and a lot of nice emails. This was our first contact on my new call.

I worked a few stations just for fun on 6m for Field Day including W5NX and K5CM. No DX though.

As for DX, I’ve recently worked Allen on Wake Island, KH7AL/KH9 (ATNO thanks for the spot Steve, QQ! ) and T30TTT on a few new bands.

73 and have a great summer of DX,
