Well-known Scottish DXpeditioner Tom Wylie GM4FDM talked about "Radio Expeditioning to Senegal and Jersey" on 5th October, 2011. Senegal 2010 was an expedition to West Africa by Tom GM4FDM & Ronald PA3EWP. Their objective was to make as many QSOs as possible especially on the LF bands over a 10 day period. Tom's presentation described how they went about preparing and executing their plan and the problems and highlights of operating ham radio from Africa. Tom also talked about a trip to Jersey for operation principally on 6m plus some HF. Full report with photos in Meeting Reports.
