[SFDXA] Wake Atoll update

[Bill]

 From Tony N2MFT:

Press Release #5

The Wake Atoll commemorative team is in the final phase of preparation. 
All equipment has been received in Hawaii and will be transported to 
Hickam AFB for delivery to Wake Island. Thanks, Kimo, KH7U for your 
invaluable assistance!

The plan is for the team to assemble in Hawaii on or before 3 October, 
depart 4 October and arrive on 5 October. The following day will be 
dedicated to station set-up. There will be two CW and two SSB stations 
on the air. The CW site will be located across from the Arrivals 
terminal and the SSB site will be housed in a “beach house” near 
downtown Wake.

We are planning on being QRV 7 October through 18 October (Wake time). 
If there are any changes, they will be posted on our website 
<http://wake2013.org/pages/bandplan.html> . Logs will be uploaded to 
ClubLog as time and internet access allows.

This is a commemorative DXpedition. Our prime objective is to honor the 
lives and contributions of the Forgotten 98 civilian contractors who 
lost their lives on Wake during WWII. Some of these men have yet to be 
identified and are interred in Honolulu. If you know any of the 
Forgotten 98 or their relatives, modern DNA testing may identify their 
remains and provide for a proper burial. Please take a moment to look 
  <http://wake2013.org/pages/forgotten98.html> through their names.

The team wants to thank the DX community, including generous worldwide 
Foundations, Clubs, Individuals, Equipment manufacturers and outlets for 
their outstanding support of the Wake commemorative efforts. These 
DXpeditions are extremely expensive and could not be accomplished 
without the support of the entire DX community.Visit the Wake Island 
DXpedition <http://wake2013.org/> website to view our sponsors and make 
your personal donation.

Please note! A few other DXpeditions will be on the air during the Wake 
operation. To avoid the dreaded “not in the log”, please be sure which 
DXpedition you are working! Our operators will announce the K9W callsign 
often to help identify your contact.
