Malta XPO 2025

Picture from 9H6XPO Malta 2023

Back in October 2023 the Marconi Radio Circle and Central Radio Amateur Circle set up and ran 9H6XPO from the Marconi RC HQ in Imtarfa Malta. It went well with 763 contacts and 54 countries worked. So we have decided to repeat the event in October 2025 and after some deliberation we have set a date of 6^th to 10^th October 2025.

          The two clubs will sort out the day to day running of the station. This is open to any full licenced amateur with a passport (you need one to get there).  Sorry but you need a full licence to operate in Malta.

           Operators are invited from any Country but will need to sort their own transport and hotels in Malta. All you need for Malta at the moment is a current passport, there are currently no restrictions on travel, but people are advised to keep an eye on the situation in case anything changes.

           There will be a small cost for running the station of 25 Euros each (this must be paid up front, and no refunds will be given if you change your mind), this is to cover the running cost of the station such as electric, water and drinks. This is a one-off payment.

There will be a rota for people to choose when they want to operate the station. No one will be expected to operate all the time. There should be enough time for people to have a good explore of the island and its culture. Basically, it’s a holiday with a bit of radio thrown in for fun.

Times of operation will be between 10:00 and 17:00, with the option of a late night if required (this to be pre-arranged with MARC in advance).

Anyone wishing to take part can contact me via email to start with and I will send more information as and when it is available. (radio-circle@live.co.uk).
