BREAKING DX NEWS: VP6T PITARICAN OPERATION SAYS NO 6 METERS
The VP6T DXpedition to Pitcarin Island will not be on 6
meters nor any exotic modes such as EME or SSTV. Nor will
it likely even show up on 60 meters.
The operation which begins on January 20th and continues
through February 4th has issued a press statement explaining
its decision to concentrate its operations on the
traditional and popular High Frequency bands.
According to the team they are a small group and are limited
in baggage weight and size. As such they were forced to
make choices. And while most of the team are 6 meter
operators, they reached a decision not to spend much their
time and effort on this band.
For these reasons no 6 meter antenna will be taken with them
and no time slot is booked for 6 meter operation. For more
details, updates along the suggested frequencies for the
VP6T DXpedition please visit the operations website at
www.vp6t.org. (Southgate)
