Amateur radio expeditions, commonly known as DXpeditions, are associated by all amateurs with the signs OH2BH, ZL1AMO, OH1RY, SM0AGD, VK9NS, JA1BK, let me name those better known. One of the pioneers of DX expeditions were famous: Gus Browning W4BPD and Danny Weil VP2VB. Then for whole years we were excited by expeditions by Iris and Lloyd Colvin - W6QL and W6KG. For me these people have always been role models, as they have given a lot of emotions and happiness to the whole ham society, enabling us all to make long-distance communication with the white spots on the map.
On the following pages you may read about several expedition to places, which are not often visited by tourists. I begin modestly, with a description of several SP9FIH expeditions: Aland Islands SP9FIH/OH0, Austral Islands FO0WEG, Marquesas Islands FO/SP9FIH and FO0POM, Tonga A35WE, Nepal 9N7WE, but I hope, that soon others will join!

I would like other DXpeditions organized by us to be here. There were a lot of them. Here we can share our experiences and perhaps we will inspire others to follow this track. Please send to my e-mail address description with several most interesting pictures (best if they were with titles) in "jpg" or "gif" file format. As materials are sent, I will place them on the Guests sub-page.
Descriptions of our expeditions are supplemented with photographs and sometimes with a soundtrack. There is a telegraphic pileup contest on the SP9FIH/OH0 page, thus the long loading of the pages...Some patience please. The pictures can be enlarged by placing the mouse pointer over them and clicking the left mouse button.
There are two new awards for contacts with amateur radio expeditions issued: "Tonga DXpedition Award" and "Polish World Tour Award".
