Hallo,

In less than 48 hours we (DL6RAI, DL2MLU, DD1LD, DK7MCX, DD5FZ) will be 
leaving Munich to start our journey to Suðuroy, the southern most island 
in the Faroe Islands (OY).

After a long drive from Munich and even longer stay on the ferry from 
Denmark to the islands, we should be arriving in Porkeri on Suðuroy late 
on Monday afternoon local time (July 7th). With a bit of luck we will 
manage to get our first signals on air by late Monday evening.

If all goes as planned, we, very briefly, hope to do the following
