[EIDXA] Bouvet Island DXpedition Press Release #2

Press Release #2
Bouvet DXpedition 2017-2018
August 11, 2016

We are pleased to announce that our website (www.bouvetdx.org<http://www.bouvetdx.org/>) is now
active. Now, you can see more about our plans to activate the #2 DXCC "most
wanted" entity. You will also meet the operating TEAM. You will recognize
most, if not all the call signs as these operators have given out millions
of DXpedition QSOs over the years.

We plan to be QRV on Bouvet on all available bands using the common modes
with the very best antennas, radios, and amplifiers. The duration of our
visit to "the most remote island on Earth" may be as long as three weeks,
weather permitting of course. As with our many previous DXpeditions, we
expect to make tens of thousands of QSOs. That is our #1 goal, consistent
with the safety of the operating team.

Now that the website is up, we are officially beginning our fund-raising
program. As with our other DXpeditions, the operating team is committed to
provide one half (50%) of the DXpedition costs. We are asking DX
foundations, DX clubs, individual DXers and equipment vendors to provide the
remainder. We believe this arrangement is fair and equitable. As always, you
have the option of using PayPal, a credit card or a personal/club check.

We appreciate you becoming our partner in very expensive under taking.

73, For the TEAM,

Ralph-K0IR
