Thanks to the partnership with the Foundation for Global Children tgc-or.jp and Mr. Zorro JH1AJT, we could again donate gifts this time, to the Azuretti local school.

I approached Mr. Zorro before arriving at the Cote d Ivoire with the idea of presenting gifts to a local school. He was so kind to support this idea. Our friend at TU, Mathurin TU5JZ, made arrangements in the school. We got a list of items which they need to improve their operation.

Gifts were purchased (Thanks to Mathurin and his friends), and we could visit the school. All the children and the school management were thrilled to receive the gifts. The children were vibrant, and it was not easy to take photos, but they were natural, and it was very nice.

We are happy to cooperate with the Foundation for Global Children to make children in need have an easier life.

We have done a good deed and can help them.

28 Mhz qsos logged as 30 m band cw qsos on online clublog streaming, but QRG is correct.

QRG correctly written in our DX log, unfortunately, there is an issue somewhere else. We are aware of it. Hopefully, it will be fixed, and we can rerun Clublog online streaming. We will regularly upload qsos a few times a day.

Air france “like us” in Paris. We paid 200 eur for overweight onboard luggage and had to check in additional luggage with our delicate electronics ( 2x notebooks, ts480 and microham interface). Hopefully it safely arrives with us to Abidjan. Not the best beginning of our trip.
