> VK9L, LORD HOWE ISLAND (Update/Press Release -- Written by Christian/DL1MGB,
> July 9th 2014, 20:07) [edited]: It has been a while since the last news
> about our (VK9DLX/VK9LM) DXpedition to Lord Howe Island in October 2014.
> But that doesn't mean that nothing happened since then. OK, the experience
> we gained with the last DXpeditions in preparing and packing the sea freight
> makes it easier with the time. But nevertheless it was again a huge amount
> of work to get all ready to go.
> Nearly the whole team met in Goch at the great station of DR1A where we
> packed all our equipment. Though we already have a good selection of radios,
> amplifiers and antennas on our stock, there are always new ideas coming up
> with each DXpedition which lead to even more equipment. So it was this time.
> For the planned contest operation as well as for the normal DXpedition we
> plan to set up two-radio setups which are sharing the available antennas.
> Also the antenna planning needed some brain power. For the high bands we
> will use both horizontal and vertical polarized monoband antennas for each
> band, because they were available and because they minimize interferences
> between the bands. Having a big field to set up antennas is good, but having
> the shack at one end of the property, you need long cable runs to feed all
> the antennas. Therefore over 1,500 meters of coax cable and another 1,400
> meters of control cable went into the boxes. At the end of the weekend we
> had over 3 tons of equipment packed in nearly 60 different boxes. They will
> now be shipped from Germany to Australia mainland and further on to Lord
> Howe Island. Be sure you don't miss the pictures in our gallery on:
> http://www.lordhowe2014.org/service/gallery/index.php
> We had one sad moment when Felix, DL5XL, had to tell us that he had to
> cancel his participation due to his job commitments at that time. With him
> we loose an excellent operator buddy!
> More or less by chance we got in contact with Joerg, DF7TH. He has already
> been known to Dietmar, DL3DXX, and Gerd, DJ5IW. They shared the operating
> seat at XF4DL in 2006. Being a CW enthusiast he has been active from EI,
> TK, LX, OD5, EA8 or IS0 in the past. Working as a freelancer in hardware
> and software development, he found the time to join our group to follow to
> Lord Howe Island. Having now three Joerg in the team, we decided to name
> them after their callsign numbers: Joerg-6 (DF6JC), Joerg-7 (DF7TH) and
> Joerg-8 (DL8WPX). Sounds like fun when calling for a Joerg. So welcome to
> the team, Joerg-7!
> Feel free to visit the DXpedition website on <http://www.lordhowe2014.org>
> and subscribe to our newsletter to stay informed.
> No idea who the Lagunaria DX Group is?
> Just visit <http://www.lagunaria-dx-group.org/> and learn more about the
> group, the people behind it and their goals.
