Hi Brian,
Short answer, submit via OQRS as usual... Occasionally a DXpedition
will ask us for a members list and they will bump us up in the priority,
but that is rare. It's usually more trouble for them than it is worth...
RR on livestream. Livestream is nice when it works, but there are
issues, especially multi-stations, un-reliable internet, etc... I had
trouble with it from ZL7...
73,
Jeff - K5WE
