Rarotonga, South Cook Islands

Aerial view: Rarotonga, South Cook Islands

I (W7GJ) wanted to announce this DXpedition as far in advance as possible, in order to provide adequate time for people to gear up for it in the event they are interested in working E51 (previously ZK1). Please mark your calendars! Bob Sutton ZL1RS (2m) and I (6m) are meeting in Rarotonga at the end of March to activate E51 on EME on both bands. More station details will be announced as we get closer to departure.

    Our moonrise in E51 is also moonset in EU, so even if you are horizon-only, we should have a good chance! GL and we hope to complete with many of you!
