>> Friends-
>>
>> The Heard Island team is gathering this weekend in the San Francisco Bay
>> Area for training and equipment checkout. We would like to invite you to
>> share this with us.
>>
>> We will be setting up and occupying one of the 12x24-ft. shelters we will
>> use on Heard Island, complete with radio, computers, galley, and sleeping
>> facilities. The location is Coast Guard Island, Oakland. The entrance to
>> the island is just down the street from Ham Radio Outlet, Oakland. You get
>> there from the Hwy 80 freeway, 23rd St. exit.
>>
>> You are welcome to drop by any time and see what we are doing. On Saturday
>> night, anytime after 6:00 PM we are having Open Tent: We'll be preparing an
>> expedition dinner, and we'll have lots to drink and munch. We'll also have
>> some of the Easter Island/Salas y Gomez XR0Y/Z team members there, and the
>> draft of the EI/SyG book, which is finished.
>>
>> This will be a great chance for you to interact with the Heard Island team,
>> and for us to have the pleasure of seeing you. Please consider coming over,
>> even if only briefly.
>>
>> We will be on the air, presumably 20 m, 40 m, and 80 m, from sometime
>> Friday afternoon (Sept. 27) until sometime Sunday morning (Sept. 29). We'll
>> use /6/VK0, or some such callsign, to identify us as the Heard Island
>> group.
>>
>> If you'd like more information, please reply directly to this message.
