A team of 4 Australian amateur radio operators will be activating YJ0VK from near Port Vila on Efate Island, Vanuatu, from the 27th of August to the 2nd of September 2010.
To work as many stations as possible, have some fun and enjoy a
bit of a break on a beautiful
We plan to operate two stations as often as possible -
remembering that there are only 4 operators available. We will
be making a special effort to focus on the WARC Bands as YJ0 is
still well sought after on these bands.
We gratefully acknowledge our logistical and financial supporters
for all their assistance. If any organisation or individual
would like to contribute to help alleviate our freight costs etc
please use the link on our Support page. Any donation will be
gratefully accepted.
Our main goal is that you are successful in making a contact with
us while we are there.
73 and see you on air!
