[SADXA] May meeting" VP8STI/VP*SGI talk

[Jim W]

It's my pleasure to announce that our May speaker will be Ned Stearns, 
AA7A.  He will be speaking about his experiences as a member of the 
VP8STI (South Sandwich Is.) and VP8SGI (South Georgia Is.) DXPedition 
team.  This promises to be the highlight of this year's monthly 
meetings, so mark the event on your calendar now.  It will be at 1730 
MST on Thursday, May 19th at Mimi's Cafe.

Here's a teaser for that event: in response to my comment about how 
South Sandwich was considerably harder to work than South Georgia, Ned 
responded that "VP8STI is further from W7. VP8STI site was behind a big 
hill that blocked the path to W7. The duration of common darkness with 
W7 was quite a bit less than at VP8SGI. "

He'll be able to answer your own questions at the upcoming meeting.
