Learn something different every few hours .. Guess I read the website wrong with the photos of the TWO guys only. My mistake.. Just hurriedly read I guess. I did see where two VKs might be assisting, as I’d expect, in getting permissions, places to stay, customs but did not know they would be there as full time ops. In operations the past 3-4 years, operators came and went at various and in one case a co-leader NEVER showed up, leaving I think just 3 guys to venture for themselves and he did NOT pay his lodging portion. Crazy stuff that trip. One of my good VK DXer friends was on that trip to both Cocos and Xmas.
So many emails coming into me all day, including for our 2020 DXpedition, family Holiday plans, and I guess I overlooked your post on Tuesday, Joel. Sorry if I read things too fast or not at all. I will just sit back and try not to comment hastily… 😊

Yes VK9CZ as I correctly reported in my original email to the ADXA reflector Tuesday.
There are actually four ops there; Keith GM5X, Chris GM2V, Steve VK9VZ and roddy VK6MH.

Kept looking for VK9CX but it is CZ.. Checked VOACAP and other sites for prop. Put in your grid square and then antenna configurations for all bands and look at YOUR prop peaks...
The openings will be sporadic and sometimes changing from "OK" to nothing in an hour's time and then coming right back in within an hour or so for 2 hours. Expect much QSB and low signals during the 'peak'.
Need to pull up their website and put in on your PC screen to check things during each day. There til Nov 29th, so a full two weeks. Only two ops and looks like NO RTTY, so no ATNO for me. FT8 they will try and their freqs are on the website..
http://www.vk9cz2019.com/ is the website, good links, all you need to know I think.
