the "North American HF Pilot Station" for the upcoming CY9AA

DXpedition may be sent to Tom via e-mail to TOMK5RC@aol.com during
the operation.  Operators for this DXpedition are:  Mike Smith,
VE9AA, Doug Shepard, VE1PZ and Dennis Motschenbacher, K7BV.  They
will depart from Cape Breton, Nova Scotia on the morning of June 26th

stations once all stations are up and running with the basic
