Thanks for the clarification, Bill.  I didn't do my research as I ignored the "and" and thought they were one in the same!  That will be a tougher activation with no in place infrastructure like San Felix.

No chance on San Felix. The military won’t allow it. San Ambrosia is more likely. I worked XQ0X years ago.He was a fisherman who worked only RTTY. That remains as only one of two RTTY contacts I’ve ever made, the first to see if my tu worked, the second to work him.

I think I would wait until after the DXpedition before contributing. One operator of unkown proficiency doesn’t inspire confidence.

The QSL fees may be reasonable considering the demand.  I'm surprised it is so rare as the Chilian Navy is there and can land a 737.  San Felix should be as easy as Easter Island to work. It will be an ATNO for many but Honor Roll for N5QS!  I may try to pick up band counters which weren't considered forty years ago.

This is not a DXP, but a DX Activity as only one operator on the island.  The plan is to be active 24/7 with two stations on the island.
    One station focused on SSB/FT8
    A remote station focused on CW/FT8

Looks like he's prioritizing his responses for QSL Cards and LoTW by "donations".  ADXD #14.  The question becomes send $10 after a contact (or two) or send $30 BEFORE they leave and hope for a contact.
