Tune in Christmas at the bottom of the world... SWLing opportunity on 
Christmas Eve
Tune in Christmas at the bottom of the world... the following is from 
Nathaniel Frissell, W2NAF/KC4, currently in Antarctica:

Each year, the residents of McMurdo Station, Antarctica celebrate 
Christmas by singing Christmas Carols to the remote, Antarctic field 
camps on the HF radio. This year, we are asking ham radio operators 
around the world to listen in and e-mail short wave listening reports 
telling us how far away the carols are heard.

Listen on 7995 kHz USB on 24 December 2014 2300z (December 25 1200 New 
Zealand Time) and e-mail reports to w2naf at arrl.net.


For a Christmas in Antarctica SWL QSL card, please send an SASE to my 
Blacksburg address (see qrz.com). Special cards will be made for this 
event.

Please share this information with as many hams as possible. It would be 
really interesting to know how far we are heard. I believe we will be 
running about 1000 W for this.
Merry Christmas!

73,
Nathaniel, KC4/W2NAF
