  • Sheigra Dxpedition Report 7Th to 20Th March 2015 with Dave Kenny & Alan Pennington
    British DX Club - Sheigra DXpedition Report 7th to 20th March 2015 - with Dave Kenny & Alan Pennington Sheigra (“peaceful valley”), Sutherland, North West Scotland. Receivers Alan Pennington AOR AR 7030 Plus and Palstar pre-amp Dave Kenny AOR AR 7030 Plus and tuneable pre-amp Aerials (long-wire Beverages use 7-strand 0.2mm wire supported on 4-5ft bamboo canes) No 1 - 260 degrees 500m Beverage - terminated Caribbean, Central & South America No 2 - 300 degrees 500m Beverage - terminated North America No 3 – 340/170 deg 300m Beverage – un-terminated UK & Africa + general SW reception No 4 - 50 degrees 500m Beverage - terminated Far East & SE Asia We’d not been up to Sheigra in the month of March since 2002, as most DXpeditions have traditionally taken place in October or November. But this tiny crofting village in the far north-western corner of the Scottish mainland is always a draw for DXing or just to enjoy the wild open landscape. So, although very late in the MW DX season, we decided to chance a two-week DXpedition in March, ending on the day of a solar eclipse. Tony Rogers was unable to make this DXpedition, so just the two of us made the long drive north, for what records say is the 55 th DXpedition to Sheigra. We certainly missed the extra pair of hands putting up and taking down the long Beverage aerials! Our DX base for both weeks was Murdo’s cottage, a traditional crofters style house which we had used for the first time on the last Sheigra DXpedition in October 2013, and is more favourably sited for erecting aerials targeting the Americas.
