To all concerned...Confirmation that Alex G(M)0DHZ and myself begin our Orkney/Shetland expedition tonight.

The plan is as follows...BUT...extremely WX-dependent. We will concentrate on 20m and 40m (J3E and A1A). When we are on the main EU-009 and main EU-012 islands, we also hope to try 160m.

Saba 2010 DXpedition

Monday, 23 August 2010 05:07 | Written by Xavier |

The Saba 2010 team has completed all preparations for the activation of Saba beginning 10/10/10. As you know by now, that is the likely date that the Netherlands Antilles will cease to exist and several new DXCC entities will be created as a result. One of those new countries should be Saba/St. Eustatius due to their close proximity. Although, this is not a 100% certainty, it is likely enough to plan an operation.
