3X, GUINEA. Members of the VooDoo Contest Group have announced that its
project for CQ World Wide DX CW Contest (November 24-25th) will be in
3X-land. This will be the group's 14th straight year operating from a
different country in West Africa as a Multi-Multi category in the contest.
Roger, G3SXW, in a press release states, "We will mount seven 1KW stations
with monoband antennas for all six bands right beside the Atlantic Oceanin Conakry, the capital of Guinea. The callsign we have been allocated is
3XY5D. We still hope to secure a shorter call but this is now the most
likely to be used in the contest. We also have a VHF licence for 2mtr EME:
3XT1 (3X tango one with no suffix). QSL 3XY5D via G3SXW." The team will
also be active a few days before and after the contest. Operators mentioned
are: Roger/G3SXW, Fred/G4BWP, John/G4IRN, Robbie/GM3YTS, Bob/K4UEE, Vince/
K5VT and Ned/AA7A. All logs will be uploaded to LoTW soon after their
return home. Roger, G3SXW, states, "This is one of our more daring DX-
peditions. We face the possible risk of civil unrest, washed-out roads and
banditry, not to mention zero sunspots! We hope to C U in the contest!"
