>        I was just over at Bob Allphin's ( K4UEE ) house this past week
>helping with antenna testing & packing in preparation for the January 
>Dxpedition to
>Peter I.  I asked Bob how the recruitment of Team members was coming 
>along. He
>said that they now have the necessary number of operators & skill makeup to
>meet their requirements, but he added that they would entertain the 
>addition of
>a couple more operators.
>I think this would be a great opportunity for the right person! There are
>several criteria points that any possible recruit must meet.
>
>FIRST, members must have good interpersonal skills and get along with other
>people. This team will be together almost 7 weeks and one person can make
>everyone else miserable. I know many of the existing team and I can assure 
>you that
>they all meet this most important requirement.
>
>SECOND, they must be able to work in hard and difficult conditions. They
>must be in good physical shape and have some experience in camping
>conditions. Cold weather experience is a plus.
>
>LASTLY, good operators who have experience handling large pileups are
>desired. Most of the current team are CW first, and SSB second. Several 
>team members
>are also skilled in RTTY.
>
>The team will depart from Ushuaia, Argentina on Jan. 3, 2004 and return
>between Feb.10 and Feb 14. The cost for each team member is USD $15,000 
>with the
>possibility of getting some money back later. The payment schedule is: 
>$7500 due
>when accepted to the team and $7500 due 30 days later. All team members must
>pay for their own transportation to/from Ushuaia, purchase Medical Evacuation
>Insurance (about $250) and provide their own clothing and personal items. The
>signing of several liability release forms will be required.
>Unless you are known by the one of the current team members, two ham
>references attesting to your meeting the 3 criteria outlined above are 
>required.
>I personally think that this is an adventure of a lifetime and I can't think
>of a better team to enjoy it with.
>If you are interested please contact Bob Allphin directly at k4uee at arrl.net .
