Spratley Islands DX0P DXpedition with K3s, KPA500s and KX3s.

Administrator

From "The Daily DX" newsletter:

"The DX0P team is now aboard the Philippine Navy vessel BRP Apolinario Mabini on
their way to Pagasa Island in the Spratly Islands. They had set up a station
and were QRV as DX1M/MM, having been reported on
14.277 MHz on SSB and 21.086 MHz on RTTY, until the LCDR officer asked them to
shut down "due to security reasons".

The DX0P DXpedition is expected to begin sometime tomorrow. http://www.dx0p.org
<http://www.dx0p.org/>"
---------

They are using K3s, KPA500s and KX3s.
73,

Re: (permit for Yaesu) Spratley Islands DX0P DXpedition with K3s, KPA500s and KX3s.

Even thought the press release clearly says Elecraft, it looks like their permit from the Philippines is for a Yaesu not Elecraft radio?
May just be a formality.

The permit was granted 16 months ago. Guess they had a glass of koolaid
since then. ;-)

In reply to this post by Brian Broggie-2

Maybe they approached Yaesu first to get support, hence Yaesu kit on
licence ... then maybe ran out of money and went elsewhere... You could
ask them?
