KH4 - Midway Island
KH6VV/KH4 is planned for the second half of next February. Midway
Atoll is now number 14 on the Club Log most wanted listing and has not
been on the air in recent years. Over the years the airplane used for
supplies fly-ins was downsides and visitors were no longer allowed on
the flights. A boat trip of seven days is expected each way on this
expedition. The A/S Machias vessel is planned. You can see it on the
KH6DV QRZ page. KH6DV, Ron, in Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii, is heading this
up. The boat has a pair of 27KW generators, air conditioned sleeping
quarters, radio room and galley.
KH6DV says ops who would like to join should send him an email, as the
planning continues, and if you have FT8 F/H experience, mention that
in your emails. Ron says 11 operators are needed, plus someone with
experience in contacting DX clubs for donations. Donations can go to
the expedition PayPal account, [email protected]. (Note that is a
different callsign, not a typo.) And also note your own callsign with
your donation "so we can add you to the express LoTW list."
Further info: QSL info for KH6VV: via NH6PR with SASE, "no buro."
QSL info for KH6VV/KH4, only OQRS at Club Log.
