*Subject:* News from the Intrepid-DX Group VP8 Team
We are pleased to announce that the Government of South Georgia and
South Sandwich Islands has issued our Dxpedition call signs. We will use
*VP8STI* from South Thule Island (South Sandwich). We will use *VP8SGI*
from South Georgia Island.
In addition, the team will use *VP8IDX *(Intrepid DX Group) from Stanley
and during our voyage to South Sandwich and South Georgia.
We are pleased to announce that Force 12 Antennas will provide complete
sponsorship of our Dxpedition antennas including three element Yagi
antennas for the high bands including WARC bands as well as a custom set
of low band vertical antennas for 30,40,80 & 160 meters.
All of these antennas are being designed to sustain high winds that we
anticipate having on South Sandwich and South Georgia.
Our plans are moving forward in all aspects including our team’s first
$54,000 installment to the RV Braveheart being paid on April 1, 2015.
To date, we have raised $90,000 towards our goal of raising $215,000.
This puts us 40% of our target. We would welcome additional support from
the many DX Clubs around the globe, particularly those in Europe and
Asia who have not yet supported our efforts.
At the time of our activations, South Sandwich will be the #3 most
wanted entity, while South Georgia will be the #7 most wanted DXCC entity.
All information about our plans can be found on our website:

Thank you,
The Intrepid-DX Group VP8 Team
