They state, "Our goal is to demonstrate 'ultralite' DXpeditioning into
magnificent 'vista' locations, operating field portable battery-only
radios with backpackable, lightweight antennas and most of all 'having
fun' with a number of local operators from a 5-star Villa near the
ocean." QSL via LoTW or to the operator=92s home callsign (w/SASE).

monthly Arctic and Antarctic DX column which goes to CIDX (Canadian
Int'l. DX Club) for publication in the monthly Messenger. Scanned copies

ZL7, CHATHAM ISLANDS (Update). Jim, ZL1LC, informs OPDX that he has

Chatham Island between March 14-20th. He adds that all other preparations
are going well, and this is a micro DXpedition which includes himself
and his XYL with limited gear. Jim will be running PSK31 only. The rigs
will be Icom 7000 and 7200 units, and the antennas will be verticals on
10, 15, 20 and 40 meters. The QTH is within 100 meters of the sea, so DX
should be hot. The frequencies will be the standard PSK frequencies of
7035, 14070, 21070 and 28120 kHz. Jim states [edited], "I'll normally be
operating on the highest working frequency. If/when a pileup develops,
callers will be asked to work SPLIT and transmit 100 - 400Hz higher. For
ZL contacts, there is a chance of SSB on 3677 kHz between 0700-0800z,
but it depends upon the PSK activity. The IOTA is OC-038, the grid locator
AE16ug and the nearby lighthouse (1km away) is CHA009. ClubLog will be
uploaded about 24 hours later, as there is no internet at the QTH. All
QSLs are direct to ZL1LC and further updates will be on the ZL7LC QRZ.com
page."
