_Our Band Plan_
The K1N operation is your only opportunity in 32 years to work this #1
Most Wanted Entity. It has been 22 years since the last operation and
USFWS will not permit another operation for at least ten years._ For
these reasons, and in the spirit of worldwide cooperation and good will,
we ask that if you already have QSOs with Navassa on certain bands from
a previous operation, __/PLEASE/ DO NOT CALL US ON THAT BAND!__ ClubLog
Leader Board will be turned off for obvious reasons._
Our stations will be at "the usual" DX frequencies, listening up, but in
some cases, down, for certain parts of the world's band plan. It is
absolutely necessary to listen to the instructions of the DXpedition
operator. We will be listening in the U.S. General/Advanced bands
periodically.
Band modes will be somewhat limited in an all-out effort to work the
bands down to the last station for this unique opportunity. We plan to
be on all bands 6 though 160. At least one station will be on 20
meters, 24 hours/day. 160M and 12M will be CW only and 10M will be SSB
only. Other bands will in some pattern, alternate CW & SSB. At least
one station will always be on RTTY, and we will operate RTTY on no more
than three bands.
The QRM problem is one reason we are not publishing our operating
frequencies, but we will be on or near the "usual" DXpedition
frequencies. If we do experience QRM, we have planned tactics to
minimize the malicious interference (see DQRM) button above). We will
also try hard to keep our splits narrow as possible to avoid annoying
non-DXers who have been known to "bother" a pileup.
