Press Release: DXpedition to Rotuma as 3D2R
After many months of careful planning, we are pleased to announce that
our preparations for a large multi-national DXpedition to Rotuma are going
according to plan.
Rotuma is located in the South Pacific Ocean and is #32 on Club Log's
most wanted DXCC list.
The Team is meeting in Lami Bay, Suva on September 22nd and departing
by ship to Rotuma on September 25th. The Team expects to arrive in Rotuma
and become active on Tuesday, September 27th. We will complete our DX-
pedition on October 7th, 2011.
The main goals of this DXpedition are to work every amateur radio
operator who needs Rotuma for a new DXCC country. In addition, we will
be active on all bands from 1.8 MHz to 144 MHz, including the 5MHz and
50 MHz bands.
In addition to CW, SSB and RTTY we will be active on PSK, SSTV and
EME. Special attention will be made to work far away stations such as
Europe and Africa during those periods when propagation permits. The
propagation window for EU and Africa is very brief at times and signals
may be weak, so we ask everyone in the honored HAM SPIRIT to stand by
when asked so that we may fulfill this need. Our destination will have
a wide range of options and possibilities.
We plan to upload our logs on a daily basis to our on-line log. We
will upload to LOTW approximately six months following the DXpedition.
We wish everyone good propagation and we hope that you enjoy working
the 3D2R Team.
At this time, we are seeking additional Club and Individual Sponsors
to help us defray the costs of carrying out this DXpedition. Our official
website is http://www.yt1ad.info/3d2r/index.html
