Plans ...

Tokelau Islands

Jacek, SP5EAQ and Marcin SP5ES plan to be QRV from Tokelau (ZK3) from the 8th October 2014 on 80-10m bands. Jacek operates only SSB, while Marcin SSB and CW. Activity is planned for a period of three weeks, however, the dates may change due to the unpredictability of transport. We have been granted with suitable approval to enter Nukunonu atoll and local accommodation has been provided. We expect to get ZK3Q (SP5EAQ) and ZK3E (SP5ES) call signs (to be confirmed).

Some activity from Apia (SP5EAQ as 5W0AF and SP5ES as 5W0AG) is planned while waiting for transport to the atoll and during the return way in early November.

    Donations...

    We are happy to meet all the costs of the DX-pedition, but we are seeking sponsorship and donations from individuals, DX clubs and organizations towards any excess baggage charges, printing QSLs and similar expenses including a vessel trip. The expedition is clearly more expensive than the previous ones (vessel, floating dates). To make a donation, please go to Donations menu.
