FYI, this is now appearing on XF4B - Mark’s QRZ.com page in case you were unaware:

Mark is QRT now, Logs will be uploaded to clublog around 11/3.

Due to no internet and PC issues there was no FT8 this trip.

The page also states:

This is a self-funded trip using Mark’s personal equipment and some purchases in the US by N1DG. It will be a low profile, low geographic impact operation showing the Commander that a DXpedition can be conducted without a major impact on the Island’s mission.  Use of remote operators via the NCDXF RIB technology will also be discussed.   Accordingly, do not expect a Mega DXpedition this time.   Mark’s intent is to make as many ATNO contacts and lower XF4’s rank of 24^th most wanted (12^th in Europe) by as much as one operator can do in 5 days.

Hope the base Commander finds favor in Mark’s proposals, and approves a team to operate in the near future.  Some of us were able to obtain a couple of

new band counters from his demo trip this week, so thanks to Mark for that.
