In a press release, it was reported (edited): "Someone said
that there is no pilot station for the west coast of Americas; that's not completely true. In fact some hams offerred to help us, but they cannot be QRV for the entire length of the DXpedition, so we have only one pilot for the Americas which is Floyd, N5FG."
