This expedition took place in extremely difficult circumstances.

Despite many hurdles such as security, customs, power losses, the visit of more than 30 officials and observers and an extremely high QRM level caused by man made noise with occasional peaks up to over S9, we still managed to retrieve more than 68,000 Q’s !

The Rockall Dx Group is proud to inform you that our goal to promote amateur radio in Iran, hence opening doors for both local radio amaters as future DXpedition groups, has been achieved.

Dr. Azim Fard, General Director of the CRA, has assured to further keep supporting ham radio in Iran by creating exams and establishing new clubs.

The translation of our 150 page course to Farsi will be a good guide and will soon also be downloadable for free in the neighboring countries.

As always we would like to thank our sponsors for their trust in the Rockall Dx Group and hope to be able to count on you in the future.

Individual sponsors who have joined our log will receive a QSL card free of charge.

Max ON5UR is currently busy with the QSL design which Tim M0URX will then further distribute, taking this roll as his lead.

A video of this adventure will be made available shortly.

We have learned a lot but still there is so much more to tell, therefor we will be visiting the DX convention for a presentation in CA, GMDX, FDH and perhaps in your club with a Powerpoint presentation.

See you all soon in a new and exciting DXadventure!

The Rockall DX Group.
