Dang it Don! You didn't tell me you were gonna take DOCTORS!
I would have been first in line to volunteer my services.
You probably don't even have a family doc. John is an
ANESTHESIOLOGIST. They put people to SLEEP. How you gonna
run a Dxpedition with everyone sleeping all the time?

This will be last Update on the RTTY Reflector.  This
update should be forwarded to any and all amateur radio

exciting adventure.

Update #4 - April 1, 2002

The Parody Island DXpedition team has been finalized today.
There will be 13 operators, one reporter, one husband, 10
secret service agents and three doctors heading to the
island.

In addition, the team will have 4 Pilot stations, 3
Policemen,
a Publicist and an Archivist.

All the details of the DXpedition can be found on the

Policemen:

Other:

10 Secret Service Agents whose names cannot be revealed for
security reasons

Because 28 people and all the gear cannot be loaded onto the
SS Minnow,
alternate transportation has been arranged aboard the
Carnival Cruise ship
"Imagination".  We will share the cost of the vessel with
CBS, who will be
filming "Survivor Parody Island" at the same time.

The Minnow will still make the trip to serve as a support
vessel and to
trawl for fresh shrimp for Roy's gumbo.

Keep checking the web site for updates.

73, Don AA5AU
Parody Island DXpedition Team Leader
