April 2006 - Andaman Islands

 

VU3FRK / VU4

 

HAMFEST - VU4 - India organized by NIAR due to the restless efforts of Bharathi VU2RBI and S. Suri VU2MY and my most cordial thank to Shri Ajeer Vidya!  Special thanks to Bharathi that I received the #1 permit for foreign operation from VU4 since decades and it was a honor to be the only foreign member of the organizing committee.

VU7RG January 2007 - Lakshadweep Islands
 

VU3FRK / VU7

Participation and co-organisation of VU7 Hamfest DX-Pedition.

Due to the favourable support of the Government of India and the restless NIAR efforts, namely Bharathi VU2RBI, Mohan VU2MY and especially S. Suri VU2MY,  33 foreign Hams had the very unique opportunity to operate from three Lakshadweep Islands against all jealous and non-hamspirit odds. In this connection my salute goes to Shri Ajeer Vidya since he has his heart in the right place!

It is fair to say that this dxpedition did set new standards when finishing with 110.000 QSO´s within less than 10 operation days.
