XU7XRO - Kompong Som, Cambodia

December 3, 2008 · No Comments

I (9M6XRO) plan to be QRV from Kompong Som, Cambodia from December 10th-18th as XU7XRO on 10-160m using CW/SSB/RTTY. QSL info for XU7XRO is only via Tim, M0URX.

There is also the possibility that I could do a Cambodia IOTA operation during the week from AS-133 with Wim, XU7TZG. We would use the call XU7KOH with Wim on SSB and me on CW. Still to be confirmed when I meet up with Wim.
