[Nob Ichino]

(Some format problems with this so I slightly edited it...de W4ZV):

             <<<<<<ZK1/North Cook DX-pedition 2000>>>>>>

Yasu/JI1NJC has activated several small entities in the Pacific and
Indian Ocean with his company at least once a year in the past
since 1989(KH0, C2, T30, T2, ZK1/S, 3D2, A35, FW, 8Q7, S79, 3B8 etc. ).

This Y2K as a peak of Cycle 23 Yasu will make another DX-citing trip
with Yu/JR2KDN who activated one of rare entities in SE Asia, Lao in 1998.
Of course the target is to work stations in everywhere as many as possible
on ALL BANDS and also SPECIAL attention to 6m will be paid and various
propagations (e.g. Scatter, Skew path, Short path, Long path) will be
tried.

Now we are very pleased to announce our upcoming DX-citing/pedition
