DXpedition Sponsorship
For many years, the GMDX Group has provided sponsorship to major Dxpeditions. Here are a few from recent years.

In return, each year, the Group receives several high-quality presentations from international DXers. Group members learn a great deal from these events and find them extremely enjoyable.

If you are planning a DXpedition, and seeking sponsorship, find out more.

Contest Operations
Group Members are active during many major contests. Scotland has a small Contesting community, so GM stations are often in demand. With the right skills and training, an effective GM station can run pile-ups for many hours.

If you are new to contesting, here is a helping hand to get started.

VP8SDX and beyond ...
During 2001, the GMDX Group organised and ran the world-class VP8SDX DXpedition. The team (GM3YTS, GM4FDM, GM0GAV, GM4COX) made over 30,000 qsos during their time in the Falkland Islands.

At some future date, the Group may mount another major DXpedition. Right now, all options remain open ... :-)
