reading Mike's post reminded me of something else re: DX-Peditions of this type.
I am talking about the Cheap and Easy vs the Lots of work and not cheap. We
have those where the idea is RATE so they do bands where they can get 200 per
hour and ignore the tough low bands or almost ignore them. You can't set up a
low band station with a little tripod and yagi on top of some hotel complete with so
much RF interference you can't hear beans on the low bands. Think about the
extra equipment needed to provide such a station setup as our low band
specialists set up and tore down as well as picking some location to setup the
station where the antennas would do the most good with the least possible
amount of RF interference. On this the website for V84SAA is a DONATE button.

Or when you apply through OQRS for your QSL cards there is an optional donate
a little extra button available. https://clublog.org/logsearch/V84SAA
Lets show our appreciation.
