Peter I Island DX-pedition 2026 is in the progress
(#8 most wanted)
There is also plans for Peter I Island in progress. We have secured a vessel, and
we’re now building a team of 19 operators that will go to Peter I Island in February
2026 and stay there for 14 days. The vessel is a proper Antarctica vessel with 2
helicopters, two Expedition leaders and with all permits needed. We are working
closely with the Norwegian Polar Institute to obtain the landing permit. A website
will be created and more information about Peter I Island DX-pedition will be
released later. Fundraising is expected to start 2024

Team leader Ken LA7GIA – Co-leader Adrian KO8SCA, Co-leader Cezar VE3LYC
and Co-leader Dave WD5COV

Media Officer and WW Pilot Steve Hass N2AJ

Because we are running the two DXpeditions through the same organization there
exist synergies as for the equipment, logistics and resources committed to execute
these.
