Gildas, TU5KG, informs DX-World that for a period of time in early 2016 he will be on Kerguelen Island. When active from there he will sign as FT5XT. Gildas is captain of a fishing vessel which will be sailing in the FT5 area for up to 3 months so activity will be sporadic. When not on Kergualen he will sign FT5XT/MM.
QSL via F4DXW.
NOTE: A reminder that FT4XU could also be active from Kerguelen in the weeks ahead.
