 http://ducie2008.dl1mgb.com/  is the official website of the dxpedition.
There you will find the on-line log, all sorts of news about what's
happening, pictures etc. and if you click on "Site Map" you will see an
aerial photo of Ducie with all the antenna site/information superimposed.
Very impressive setup.

7 Active stations, all K3's with ACOM amplifiers and those guys sure seem to
know how to get the most out of the K3's receiver!  They hear EVERYTHING!
