Daily DX Sept 23:
The P29 DXpedition to two rare IOTA's and activating P2 on 160 has an
opening. K6HFA, Hugh, has canceled because of some unfortunate
circumstances. Hugh is graciously leaving his $3000 (AUD) in the boat
charter fund. Who would like to replace Hugh? For $2067 (AUD) or
$1730 (USD) plus your own air fare (~$3000 USD), you can be a member
the team. Anyone interested can contact G3KHZ, Derek, at
G3KHZ at derekcox.plus.com or W5GAI, Skip, at W5GAI at arrl.net. The P29
team is still looking for donations to help defray the cost of
transporting the 160 meter amp, antennas, etc. to/from P2. If you
want to contribute, they have set up PayPal on their Website
http://www.425dxn.org/dxped/p29_2008/ or checks can be sent to W5GAI.
The P29 travel schedule is as follows:
