EUDXF supports the 3D2LYC DXpedition by Cezar VE3LYC
It is our pleasure to announce that the EUDXF Board decided to support the currently active DXpedition by Cezar VE3LYC to Yanuca Island OC-189.
There have been two previous operations from OC-189, the first in 1993 and the second in 2007.
Cezar will be travelling to Fiji for the sole purpose of bringing this IOTA reference back on the air after a 16-year hiatus.
OC-189 currently ranks #47 of the IOTA most wanted, in demand by almost 90% of its membership.
Cezar’s goal is to make 4000 QSOs with 2500 unique stations located on six continents.
He will operate primarily on 10, 12, 15, 17, 20, and 30 m, using CW and SSB.
Club Log ranks 3D2 relatively high at #58 on the list of most wanted DXCC in Europe.
As such he will be looking for European stations in SSB, not just in CW, at the appropriate times.
