Bill was part of the TX5T Austral Islands DXpedition as one of the operators and will present a nice show about his experiences as a part of that effort. He's operated from numerous DX locations over the years and is scheduled to go with many of the same group to TX7T Marquesas DXpedition this November.?? He's well known among those that do serious DXpeditioning and brings a wealth of DXing knowledge; we're certainly looking forward to learning about his experiences and impressions.

While their DXpedition is entirely self-funded, the OKDXA helps fund other DXpeditions to more rare entities.?? To that end, we always have a raffle as a fund-raiser at our Fall Banquets. If you'd like to contribute, please bring an item to raffle off and, while you're at it, buy some raffle tickets!
