DDXG is excited to host Bob Ronk, W9AP, one of the 3Y0K team members at our August club meeting, August 22nd.
Returning to Bouvet after 3Y0J was something we felt the DX community deserved. For 3Y0K, the team planned a full-scale effort to land safely with the radios, antennas, and amplifiers needed to put strong signals on the air and hear callers across the globe. Bob Ronk (W9AP), one of the 3Y0K team members, will share the challenges of mounting a second attempt on one of the world’s most remote islands, and how the team overcame logistics, weather, transportation and equipment issues. This presentation highlights what changed, what worked, and what it took to bring Bouvet back to life for DXers everywhere.
This meeting will take place at 9:00 AM both in person at the at the Recreation Center at Deep Run Park, 9900 Ridgefield Parkway, Henrico, VA 23233, and via Zoom. Use the following link to attend via Zoom: DDXG August Zoom Meeting.
