>>> PETER I ISLAND 2006 * 3Y0X <<<
In a press release dated 9 June, Ralph Fedor (K0IR) and Bob Allphin (K4UEE)
announced that "contracts have been signed with two Chilean companies to
provide a vessel and helicopter for the DXpedition to Peter I, Antarctica
during January/February 2006. The actual dates of the operation will be
released on or about September 1, 2005, but the general time frame will be
between January 16 and the end of February, 2006".
Nine stations will be active as 3Y0X on all bands and modes; it is the team's
objective to be at Peter I for a minimum of two weeks, with the actual
operating time to be determined by weather and set-up time.
Most of the members of the 2005 team will participate in the 2006 DXpedition,
but there are several slots available for new team members. Contact either
K4UEE (mallphin@aol.com) or K0IR (rfedor@cloudnet.com) for more information.
The team will be putting up approximately 70% of the DXpedition's expenses,
but additional contributions from sponsors are being sought. Detailed
