Update July 6, 2023: They started the activity yesterday.

Update July 1, 2023: As all major expeditions do, we have an operating budget to meet so we can get all equipment to the island and move it to the mountaintop location in the American Samoa National Park. Sadly, today we learned of a logistical change beyond our control which has increased that budget by over 30 percent. Because of this we are making a last-minute plea to our friends around the world to help make this a success buy supporting it in any way you can. Please visit the QRZ page for KH8RRC and slide down to the “Support Us” button and give it a click. Whatever support you may give is appreciated, everything helps us get all needed equipment there and up to the mountaintop in the American Samoa National Park to put out the strongest signals possible. Remember the last big one that was unable to get the amps and big antennas to the site! Well, we’re not swimming but it still takes a lot to get everything shipped and moved upon arrival.

The good news is we may be able to add 160m to our band plan (presently 6 through 80m) if we get creative and lucky! Remember, we and others like us do this for you, the global Ham community. Please help us give as many contacts as possible during our stay on the island.

Thanks, we hope to hear you all in the pileups…
