[Elecraft] Fwd: K9W Wake Atoll DXpedition Has Been Approved - Hope To Be QRV This Weekend

[Fred Smith]

Eric I saw that in the Daily DX my main amp is down so I will be using my
KPA500 and make do with Less HP LOL. I only have K9W on 2 bands both SSB
will be trying to fill out on phone except for 160m, not a good enough
antenna for it......yet 8>)


It's times like these when I really enjoy my K3 with sub-receiver/P3 and now
using my KX3 for yet another receiver. Yet at times I still miss my 2nd K3 I
was using it in a SO2R setup.

In our day and age it seems that Common Sense is in short supply.  If you
don't have any Common Sense - get some Common Sense and use it.  If you
can't find any Common Sense, ask for help from somebody who has some Common
Sense.  Is Common Sense divine?
Common Sense is the image of the Creator expressing revealed truth in my
mind. -  John W. (Kansas)

Never interfere with anything that isn't bothering you.

The K9W Wake Island Dxpedition is back on track and should be on the air
this weekend (Nov 3) if all goes to schedule.
(See announcement below and http://wake2013.org/index.html )

They are running K3s and KPA500's, so they should both sound great and have
sensitive ears!

   I thought you'd like to know that late Monday, 28-October, we received
   permission from the USAF to visit Wake Atoll.  You can read the Press
   Release on the K9W website.

   http://wake2013.org/

   I leave tomorrow (Wednesday, October 30) for Honolulu to meet up with the
   team, then we depart for Wake at 0230 on Friday morning, November 1.  We
   hope to be operational by November 3 and continue on the air until
November 15.

   We're excited that this is Commemorative DXpedition is finally coming
   together because our primary objective is to honor the Forgotten 98
civilian
   contractors who lost their lives on October 7, 1943 during WWII -- 70
years
   ago. http://wake2013.org/pages/forgotten98.html

   And, of course, we're looking forward to putting Wake Atoll QSOs into as
   many logs as possible over the next two weeks!

   If you'd like to help the DXpedition with a personal donation, here is
the
   Sponsors page:
   http://wake2013.org/pages/sponsors.html

   Assuming we have good internet access, I plan to keep in touch via the
K9W
   website.

   Wish us luck -- I'll be looking for you in the pileups. : >)

   John, K6MM
