This is The DX Mentor podcast. I hope to help those hams trying to move up the DXCC ladder as well as those that at on the DXCC Honor Roll. As fast as technology is moving, no one can keep up on it all. I am here to help. #DX #Hamradio
Instead of my explanation, lets check out what the Rotuma2024.com website has to say:
"The Pacific Islands DXpedition Group (PIDXG) is pleased to announce that Gregg, W6IZT; Dean, W2FQ; Nathan, K4NHW; Jamie, MØSDV, Connor, KD9LSV and Lukas, LY7J will operate from Rotuma as 3D2Y from November 15 to December 4, 2024. In addition, they will be taking part in the CQWW CW Contest using another (TBA) callsign.
The 6 member team will operate locally with three 500w stations on 6m-160m. Additionally, the DXpedition will include two of W6IZT’s NexGenRiBs.
One of the primary goals of this DXpedition is to “Enable DXpeditioning for the Next Generation of Amateur Radio Operators.” Having young operators like 23-year old Jamie, 23-year old Connor, and 22-year old Lukas, participate on this DXpedition team goes a long way in fulfilling this mission. Moreover, the DXpedition organizers and Youth on the Air (YOTA) have entered into a unique partnership with this DXpedition by actually applying YOTA’s goal of building skills, fostering lasting friendships and mentoring younger operators. To this end, the NexGenRiBs will be operated by a team of young amateur radio operators who will get to experience the excitement that comes with being part of this DXpedition and what goes into making this type of activity a success.
We are also fortunate to have 19-year old YOTA member Kees (pronounced Case), WØAAE, play an important role in the 3D2Y DXpedition. He has volunteered to coordinate and schedule the YOTA operation of the remote stations."
My guests are Joe, W8GEX, Greg, W6IZT, Dean, W2FQ, Connor, KD9LSV, and Greg’s better half, Wendy.
