Do you need the tiny island country of St. Kitts? My XYL & I will be there!
#1
Does anyone need the tiny island country of St. Kitts? In a couple of weeks, my XYL Elsie (KB1IFZ) and I will be there for a few days.

We have applied for a V4 amateur radio visitor's license with the National Telecommunication Regulatory Commission of St. Kitts, and we'll pick it up from the NTRC we arrive on the island. I'm packing my trusty FT-857, and intend to toss up a wire into a nearby palm tree for some fun QSOs.

In addition to being new members to MARC -- thank you for the warm welcome! -- Elsie & I are also long-time members of the SARA Club, and we are already planning skeds with them, too.

We don’t have our travel itinerary set yet. But if anyone is interested, please chime into this thread. As soon as I have tighter info, I’ll post it here. (It may be really short notice, as the heads up may occur when we’re on the island and we figure out what our QTH and antenna options are.)

FYI, my wife and I enjoy DX and love DXpeditions. For instance, we’ve had the great pleasure of twice operating the IARU HF Championship contest from Aruba. It’s fun to be on the receiving end of a pileup! We also, generally, like contesting. I’ve been working Field Day (yes, I know it's not technically a contest) since 1974 and Sweepstakes since 1976.

Anyway, let me know if you’d like a contact from St. Kitts.

73,
