Planned
Falkland Island activated on 2m EME by Marshall K5QE and Arliss W7XU
Arliss-W7XU, Holly-N0QJM, and Marshall-K5QE would like to announce a DXpedition to the Falkland Islands(VP8). Arliss and Marshall will be operating 2M EME from a farm outside Stanley, courtesy of Neil-VP8AWU. Neil has agreed to host us while we are there and we owe him a large debt of gratitude. Thanks Neil.
We will arrive at VP8 on Saturday, the 14th of March, 2015 and depart on Saturday, the 28th. We hope to be set up and operating by Monday, March 16th. We will operate until March 26th and then we will tear down and fly out. Call signs are not yet arranged.
Arliss and Marshall will be doing 2M EME whenever the moon is up. Holly likes to do RTTY and she will be doing that on 20M and 30M.
The airline tickets are purchased and paid for. We have a reservation at a Bed & Breakfast in Stanley. At the current time, we are rounding up all the gear and testing it out.
We will have Internet at the B&B, but we are not sure about out at the farm. We will let you know on that later.
We certainly do hope that we can work you while we are in VP8. So, get the ice off your antennas and listen up for us.
Station: IC7000 + SSPA and 4 x 9el M2(all H-pol) with a WA2ODO preamp
73 Arliss, Holly, and Marshall
