"Bill Horner, VK4FW, reports they now have a complete crew for the 
upcoming trips to Willis (VK9W) and Holmes Reef (VK).  Bill, K6KM,
and Doug, VE5RA, have now joined the group.  A special 80 and 160
meter antenna has been built which is a 65 foot vertical with top
loading for 160 meters.  It will have 42 radials for 160 meters and
21 for 80 meters.  The main operators who will be on the low bands
are K6KM, VE5RA and VK4FW.  Most of the RTTY operation will be done
by IV3FSG.  During the trip to the islands they will use VK4YN/MM.
While on Willis Island the YLs will use VK9WY and the OM's will use
VK9WM.  On Holmes Reef (IOTA OC-NEW) they will all use VK4YN.  QSL 
all via VK4FW."
