Swains Island DX-Pedition 2007
Update 4/2/07, 9:30 AM
First, I want to thank all organizations and amateur
radio operators who have donated to the Swains
Island
DX-pedition - N8S. If you have not donated and want
to, please go to our website at:
http://www.yt1ad.info/n8s/index.html
All equipment has been loaded on the boat. We are in
the process of having operator personal luggaged
moved
from Hotel to Boat as I write.
We have decided to purchase two additional 5K to 6K
generators to ensure we have proper back-up. They'll
cost us additional $1k each here on American Samoa.
Our team of international operators have arrived
safely and are ready to serve the DX-Community with
pride.
We will depart American Samoa at 1:00 PM today,
April
2. We expect the boat ride to take approx. 30 hours.
Last evening, our team had a review meeting to
discuss
any concerns and to obtain any addition items deemed
necessary by team members. The main issue was
getting
additional generators.
We expect to get the first station on the air within
2
hours after arriving on the island, April 3. Our
team
will work through the night to get all antennas and
equipment up and running by the end of April 3,
2007.
If you have any special request, visit our Guest log
on the web site to make your comments or
sugguestions.
These comments will be reviewed with our pilot
stations at 6:00 PM each day local time and also
8:00
AM in the morning when QSO logs will be sent for
updating to the web site.
We do have a sat phone and will be checking spots.
Please be kind. :) Our goal is to make the
DX-community happy and server them well.
We look forward to seeing everyone from the island.
Sincerely,
David Collingham - K3LP
Swains Co-Leader
