2 SEPTEMBER 2014 - 7 SEPTEMBER 2014
I'm back in Mozambique for a 5 day stay, 2 September through 7 September 2014. Same location as our trip in December/January 2014 - Ponta do Ouro. Equipment on this trip is a Flexradio Flex-3000, Icom IC-2KL amp and Icom IC-AT500 ATU, and the antenna for all HF bands is a 43ft vertical with 8 radials going down the sand dune to the beach below.

28 JULY 2013 - 4 AUGUST 2013 PICTURES
I'm currently camping in Mozambique 28 July - 4 August 2013, using hamstick rotary dipoles on a 30 ft push up fiberglass mast, for 40, 20, and 15 meter bands. This trip I'm operating from the south of Mozambique in a village called Ponta Do Ouro. Using an Icom IC-7000 and small 300 watt amplifier, right on the Indian Ocean beachfront.

Camping 3 August 2013 - Icom IC-7000 300 watts, rotary dipole





DECEMBER 2009 - camping at Laguna Campground, in Bilene, Mozambique - 200 km north of the capital Maputo, Mozambique. Here is a picture of me, operating from a tent with an Icom IC-7000, LDG Z-100 ATU, Icom AH-4, Astron SS-30 power supply, and the antenna is a G5RV strung between two coconut trees. Logging is by RUMLOG, on an Apple MacBook Pro.

This picture shows the campground staff helping me to get the antenna up into the coconut trees.


A picture of the operating position - the portable air conditioner is almost essential in the hot humid climate, during the summer months in Mozambique


The QTH I am operating from, is on the coast, and on the shores of a really large lagoon. I took these pictures of the sunset over the lagoon
