TX5C Base Camp
According to Steve, K6SGH's on-line journal the Clipperton Atoll DXpedition base camp is struck. That's great news and 1-day before their signal hits the ionosphere.
Check out TX5C's history page including QSLs and photographs from various DXpeditions. My favorite is the 1954 FO8AJ card and the 1986 FO0XX card. If you're interested, read more, on the 1986 FO0XX Dxpedition and their Clipperton diary.
I'm deploying my inverted-vee tomorrow evening for NSL V and the doublet follows late Friday afternoon.
My operating goals need corrected after following up on TX5C's bandplan. It looks like 40- and 80-Meters is not possible because of my General class license. But I'm looking forward to 30, 20, 17, and 15-Meters through the weekend. Let's see what happens?
