PROGRAM / SPEAKER:

3YØX, The Peter Island DXpedition

Andy, AF3I, will entertain us with a good description of the Peter Island DXpedition from 2006. These guys carried several stations half way around the world by land, sea, and air. They set up on a deserted island that is never too warm for penguins. Then they made 87,000 QSOs using SSB, CW, RTTY, SSTV, and moonbounce. And we think that Field Day is a big deal! Andy has some nice pictures and professional video for us.

If you want to get a head start, here is the web site of the DXpedition: Peter Island DXpedition

It was sponsored by the Northern California DX Foundation. They also operate the worldwide system of HF beacons. Their Web site is: Northern California DX Foundation

REFRESHMENTS AND RAGCHEWING: Let's talk Ham Radio.
