3d2r

Tony Estep
The 3D2R expedition has been on for the past couple of days with basically
the same lineup who put ST0R on the air. As you'll recall, their gear
includes several Elecraft K3s and KPA500s. For certain periods, they've had
good signals here in the midwest, and I know they are strong most of the day
out west. I worked team leader Paul, N6PSE, and he recognized my call from
this reflector and called me by name, which put a smile on my face. If you
want to hear the audio and keying of a K3 coming to you live from the far
reaches of the Pacific, tune 'em in.

I have been calling them on 6m during their moonrise, but I don't think they have all
the equipment with them.  I heard that much of it is stuck in a container in New
Zealand :-(  Like ST0R, it looks like they will not be able to put all that great
Elecraft gear to work on 6m either :-(  GL to all those who are interested in working
them on HF!  VY 73, Lance

Tony, Lance,

There are only some 3D2R  operators, which have been on ST0R, but the
organization is totally different as well as the lineup. N6PSE is not a
leader, and if there are any K3 and KPA500, they have been brought by
members as personal equipment. Otherwise the transceivers there are IC7000,
hi.
And this is T32C DX expedition, which container (full with Yaesu gear) is
stuck somewhere in the middle of Pacific. Anyway, they must start today with
FT450s, hi.
GL working both expeditions!
