[50mhz] KH8 on 6m - Please distribute widely

[Lance Collister, W7GJ]

Hello!

In recent years, KH8 has become a very difficult catch on 6m.  For that reason, this 
year I have made plans to activate American Samoa as KH8/W7GJ on 6m EME from July 13 
to July 28.   I will concentrate on July 13-21, when EME conditions are most 
favorable. We will also operate on terrestrial propagation modes if they become 
available, but expect to be busy contacting many single yagi stations via EME using 
JT65A mode.

If you still need KH8 on 6m, I certainly hope you will take advantage of this 
opportunity to contact us!  The reason for this advance notice is to give you time to 
clear your schedule and finalize any station improvements before the DXpedition.

The QTH selected has a negative horizon out over the ocean from moonrise in the east, 
around through north to moonset in the west, so we will have common moon with Europe 
on both moonrise and moonset.  Current details plus future updates are available on 
my website:

As with my previous 6m EME DXpeditions to the Pacific, contributions are very much 
needed and welcomed!   It is a lot of effort and expense to haul a 6m EME station 
halfway around the world!  Any amount is very much appreciated and can be submitted 
to my Pay Pal account via my email address of:

w7gj at q.com

Many thanks for your continued support, and I hope to put many of you serious 6m 
DXers in the log this July!

GL and VY 73, Lance
