Jan/Feb 2014   AMSTERDAM & ST. PAUL IS.; FT5ZM 

An international team of 14 experienced DXpedition operators, led 

by K0IR, will depart from Fremantle, Australia, in early January 

of 2014. Their destination will be Amsterdam Island (FT5Z). The 

team has been granted an 18 day access to the island to occur 

between the dates of January 15th and February 20th of 2014.

Once ashore, the team will move to two station positions assigned 

by TAAF. The two locations are about 2 kilometers apart. Each 

location will allow a full complement of antennas. The separation 

will allow simultaneous CW/RTTY and SSB transmission on the open 

bands. The group plans on eight stations; four at each location. 

Elecraft K3's, a full complement of antennas, and 500 watt and 

1.5 KW amplifiers will be the backbone of the station 

configurations. The operators are well known in the DXing and 

contesting world and include: 9V1YC, EY8MM, FM5CD, HK1R, K4UEE, 

K9CT, LA6VM, N4GRN, N6HC, VE3EJ, VE7CT, W6IZT, WB9Z, and yours 

truly K0IR. Our website is in the final stages of preparation,
