==================================
They are expected to arrive at Heard Island on March 20. They plan on 
leaving Heard at the conclusion of the DXpedition on April 10.
This should give us -- THE DESERVING -- a decent shot at working them.

A cool thing they are going to do is put up the callsigns of the guys 
they just worked real time. So if you worked them you can go to their 
website and see that you are in their log within a few minutes of the 
time you work them.

>From March 29th to April 10th both Juan de Nova and Heard will be on the 
air at once. The Juan de Nova guys have recommended a bandplan so that 
both DXpeditions will be able to operate on a given band/mode without 
QRMing each other. One DXpedition will be listening down and the other 
DXpedition will be listening up.

For example on 20m CW
         VK0EK   xmit 14034    listening between 14013 and 14033
         FT4JA   xmit  14037   listening between  14038 and 14058
