VHF/UHF/Microwave DXpedition to Norfolk Island

Operators Alan VK3XPD, Kevin VK4UH and Michael VK3KH have planned a VHF/UHF/Microwave DXpedition to Norfolk Island (OC-005, WLOTA LH-1469, WW Loc. RG30xx), using the callsign VK9NA, between 03-14 January.

The DXpedition has created interest in the USA, and although the team thinks they are beyond their reach, they will be beaming into the Pacific on 6 metres and 2 metres and are hopeful of working A35 and E51.

Digital modes will be an integral part of their operation, and they are set up to run WSJT on all bands. They will also be active on the Meteor Scatter net, and will also be happy to consider skeds at other times.
