Default FT5ZM - QRT?

I forget which DXpedition has the all time record, and what the total was.
If they would've been able to stay 3 to 4 days longer I'm certain 185,000 if
not more, would've been reached.

If you copied them and any of the calls that they mentioned (use for
verification purposes), plus it helps fill in holes since sometimes a call
might've been copied incorrectly, or not at all. They will send you their
QSL card, which I'm certain will be nice!!

Their last QSO was at 02:20z on 2/12/14. The final total QSO count
stands
at 170,010. Impressive to say the least.


I recall hearing something about trying to hit over 180,000 Q's to beat
some
kind of DXpedition record.

From their website: "With almost 165,000 QSO's, FT5ZM is now QRT".

I think FT5ZM on Amsterdam Island has gone QRT (signed off, for those
in
Glendale), as I have seen no spots for them for a while.

They were to begin teardown on the 12th, which is certainly nearing
their
location, if not already there.

It was certainly interesting to hear them here from such a distant
spot
on the
globe.
