I'm delighted to see such interest in DX on this reflector. Once when
I posted the QRV of an Elecraft-powered DXpedition, I got a strange
email from a reflector lurker saying that DX-related posts were off
topic. However, it's clear that there's a lot of interest -- some
casual, some hard-core -- among reflector users. After all, there is
no radio better designed for DXing than a 2-receiver K3, and a lot of
them are sold to DXers for exactly that reason. For whatever reason,
Clipperton has brought out a lot of commentary, much more than, say,
the Comoros, Swains Island or Conway Reef, or the numerous other rare
and juicy expeditions in the recent past.  It's great to see the
activity that their expedition has stirred. BTW, if you haven't read
their documentation, check out their website at

To see just how meticulously this was organized, see:

And when you work 'em, don't forget to watch the DXA page to see your
call appear on their map and real-time log.
