LEM482 DXpedition in Lapland: The top DXer of North American stations in Finland makes many rare discoveries

Northern lights over LemmenjokiThe last week of October and the first week of November turned out to be a lucky choice for us in Lemmenjoki in terms of geomagnetic disturbances caused by solar activity. This good situation, with the peak area being Northern California and Southern Oregon, lasted for a couple of days, the scope then becoming a little more
widespread. Having previously 155 stations heard and QSLed from the state of California, on the first day I personally got 6 new ones, writes Hannu Niilekselä.

A second building added to the Aihkiniemi DX base in 2020

Aihkiniemi cabinsImagine spending a week in the middle of nowhere with 14 Beverage antennas — each roughly a kilometer in length and capable of catching hundreds of rare stations. It's possible because we've made our famous DXpedition base in Aihkiniemi, Finland available for rent to other DXers. The facilities have greatly improved in 2020. Going on a first class DXpedition has never been this easy.

AIH176 DXpedition in Lapland: Gold nuggets from California and TIS treasures from the Pacific Northwest

Enter AIH176 reportOn the 176th Aihkiniemi DXpedition we scored three extremely rare Travelers' Information Stations (TIS). They are the ultimate DX targets from North America due to their very low transmitter power. Normally, such stations are heard just a few kilometers away, but we caught three of them from the Pacific Northwest, about 7,000 kilometers from Lapland. Additionally, conditions strongly favored California, resulting in a dozen personally new AM catches from there.
