> P5, NORTH KOREA (P5/K6VVA Pending "CW ONLY" & IOTA AS-197 Activation
> Proposal Project). Rick, K6VVA, states: "This is a 'Work-In-Progress'
> Update & Interest Level Survey." Press release by Rick states on his
> Web page:
>
> "P5 'CW ONLY' & IOTA AS-197 PROJECT
> .............................................................
>
> HISTORY...
> During the past 6 years, I have had more than 50 cordial telephone
> conversations with D.P.R.K. personnel seeking official permission to
> operate from P5. Along with email proposals and discussions in this
> matter, substantial efforts have been made to obtain a P5 license.
>
> For more than a year now I have now been working with an NGO
> Organization
> which is well respected in the D.P.R.K. as a result of Humanitarian
> work
> they have done in P5 for many years. I have personally donated
> several
> thousands of dollars to this organization and another NGO
> specifically
> for both Food and Medical related relief projects to the people in
> need
> within the D.P.R.K. Representatives from both organizations
> personally
> supervise the final delivery and distribution of agricultral, food
> and
> medical related items in the D.P.R.K. to ensure the integrity of the
> donation programs.
>
> NEW DEVELOPMENTS...
> For several months now my NGO contact and I have been discussing a
> possible
> new venue which would be mutually beneficial in helping to accomplish
> each
> of our objectives in the D.P.R.K.
>
> A longstanding goal has been to combine the need for a "CW ONLY" P5
> Expedition with the first time activation of at least one P5 IOTA
> 'NEW
> ONE'. I believe an opportunity now exists to combine these goals in
> conjunction with unique "Cultural" and "Humanitarian" objectives
> which
> have been formulated for review by D.P.R.K. Authorities. There is
> strong
> support from the NGO in this effort.
>
> CLARIFICATION...
> I need to make it very clear than I am *NOT* seeking any donations at
> this point, but rather only an indication of the level of potential
> contributions for the related "Humanitarian" purposes likely required
> in order for approval of this project and issuance of a P5 license.
>
> Although I will be paying ALL my own expenses for the Expedition, a
> quite large 'threshold' amount for the 'Humanitarian' part of the
> proposal
> has been established which may be necessary for this P5 Project to
> succeed.
> NO future donations will come to me personally, but rather be
> directed to
> the very well-respected NGO specifically earmarked for the D.P.R.K.
> relief
> part of the P5 Project proposal AFTER the Expedition has concluded.
> There
> are some remaining details yet to be finalized.
>
> THE CHALLENGE...
> WRITTEN APPROVAL from at least four separate D.P.R.K. Ministries and
> entities (including the D.P.R.K. Military) is necessary in order for
> this to happen. Based upon a detailed review of several previous P5
> Expedition attempts that did not result in getting on the air, a key
> objective in this matter is to minimize potential failure upon
> arrival
> at the final destination in P5.
>
> It has been a very long 6 years thus far, but I believe the time has
> finally come to 'fish or cut bait'. I've espoused that 'Ham Radio
> Operators'
> are known to be generous contributors to Humanitarian causes. Being
> able
> to provide an indicator of this to the D.P.R.K. Authorities up-front
> can
> potentially make the difference between another 'No', or finally YES'
> in
> obtaining the desired P5 license.
>
> Another purpose of this Expedition is to hopefully further 'open the
> door'
> for a future Multi-Operator venue in P5, as well as activation of the
> other
> 3 remaining P5 IOTA 'NEW ONES'.
>
> PREPARATION...
> My FIVE 2011 IOTA Expeditions to NA-041, NA-066, NA-091, NA-184 and
> NA-242
> ('NEW ONE') were also used to fine-tune operational matters as well
> as test
> antenna designs for P5 use in a small venue footprint most likely
> acceptable
> to the D.P.R.K. Authorities. The plan is 4 days QRV with 200 watt
> radios and
> 'Verticals near salt water'. I have all the radio, antenna and
> computer
> equipment necessary for this expedition, including two KPA500
> amplifiers
> (approval for use of the amps in P5 is questionable at this time).
>
> Thanks very much in advance for your possible participation in the
