Kure Atoll, KH7 Dxpedition

An international DXpedition to the northern-most Hawaiian Atoll will be carried out from September 24 to October 9 using the call sign K7C and will implement an innovative satellite-internet system (DXA) for real-time display of the expedition activities.

In addition to the radio operations, the team will carry out a variety of other activities in support of the wildlife sanctuary on Kure, and contribute to the maintenance and upgrading of the facilities on Kure.

Kure Atoll is the northern-most coral atoll in the world and it lies 2,204 km northwest of Honolulu, which is the point of departure for the expedition. The voyage will take about eight days to reach Kure.

The team will spend two weeks on the atoll operating on all HF bands plus 6 meters and then return to Honolulu.
QSL cards should be sent to N4XP
