Buddies in the Caribbean

Members of the 'Buddies in the Caribbean' DXpedition
group which specializes in 100 watt or less low power radios and the Buddipole portable antenna system, is off again to a new DXpedition site in St. Lucia on February 2-11th, 2010.

This is an annual effort to demonstrate "ultra- lite" DXpeditioning into magnificent "vista" locations, operate a field portable battery-only radio with backpackable, light-weight antennas and, most of all, "have fun!"

The nine operators from eight states will have fixed operations from a cliff-top villa and portable operations from
various points on the island using CW, SSB, and the Digital modes.

Operators mentioned are: Budd W3FF, Chris W6HFP, Scott NE1RD, Dan WZ1P, Steve WG0AT, Mike KC4VG, Guy N7UN, Paul KB9AVO and Wey K8EAB.

Licensing is not yet complete, but each operator is expected to receive their own callsign.

QSL via LoTW, eQSL, or mail to operator's home callsign (SASE required).
