[OKDXA] FW: SPECIAL DXPEDITON BULLETIN

[John Geiger]

Hopefully Scaffold Ier Scarbourgh) Reef won't be under
water when they get there. What should propagation be
like between W5 and BS7?  From the pictures of past
DXpeditions I have seen to BS7, they won't be able to
put up too much in the way of antennas.

Good thing they didn't wait until April 1 to release
this news.
