Here is J28MD from Djibouti on 10 meter CW. Conditions were good but not stellar, but a good enough signal anyway.

Transceiver: Icom IC-7610
Antenna: Mosley MP-33-NW

This is a great team in Djibouti. They have a guy calling at 38 WPM and he is super sharp working probably hundreds of QSOs per hour. I've enjoyed listening all week.

What gets me is every time a DX station says "UP", you always have two or three stations that will TX right on his freq. over and over. Or you have the LID that has to tune up his amp on the TX freq. as well. Those two things absolutely bugs the hell out of me!

Reason i do not spot anyone, if its spotted its finished for most modest stations to work, in my opinion Dx Expeditions bring out the worst in people, poor operating practise, calling out of turn and generally not listening to what the Dx station is sending.
The only time i operate when abroad now is during a contest, during the XX9E expedition it was bedlam, i decided there and then to never participate and waste my time and money to give guys the chance to work a new country when they could not afford us the simple courtesy of listening to us !!!

Not great ears, unfortunately.
Best so far are the crew of D60AE!! They managed to work an incredible amount of QSO in CW sweeping back and forth trying to get as much callers as possible.
