Hi guys,
wow, the idea of a WWYC DXpedition sounds really great.
I have a suggestion for financing such an effort:
I think that in most countries the average age of active amateur radio
operators increases dramatically. So a lot of people are thinking about
how to make amateur radio attractive for young guys (as we are ;-)
So I am convinced that there will be a big reaction and joy if we come
up with the idea of an WWYC DXpedition and really stress the point that
every DXpedition member is younger than 30. I am sure that big DX
foundation and contesting clubs will be more than happy to support such
a DXpedition.
I could image an "godfather" financing system, e.g. every DXpedition
member is supported by a different DX foundation or (rich and elder)
individuals.
