[TVARC] Mid-August DXpedition - TX5T

[George Briggs]

Fellow DX chasers. I received this from the Frankford Radio Club reflector:

> Low Band enthusiasts.....
>        The 5 man team going to TX5T, Raivavae Island in the Austral group
> are pleased to announce that they will be QRV on all bands 160m thru 10m.
> (no permit for 60M).  We should arrive August 13th and depart the August 22nd.
>        The decision has been made to use 18m Spider poles to support a 160m
> Tee and an 1/4 vertical on 80m.  Power output will be limited to 500w. 
> 
> There are plans for receive antennas as well.
>        On TopBand, our frequency allotment begins at 1830 KHz, so look for
> us just above that and likely listening up most of the time, but down for
> our friends in JA.  We also expect to be QRV on FT8 around 1838-1840.
