3Y0J Bouvet Island DXpedition 2022
США
Добавлен 13 окт 2021
3Y0J is a team of 13 international amateur radio operators who, in January 6, 2023, will be sailing to, and operating from, Bouvet Island with the goal of making over 200K QSOs.
Bouvet Island is a small Norwegian inactive volcanic island, half the size of Manhattan, covered almost entirely by snow and ice. Because of its remoteness, it has rightfully gained the title of: The Most Remote Uninhabited Island on Earth. Bouvet Island is listed in the ClubLog DXCC at position #2, making it, for the ham radio world, the equivalent of the Mount Everest of the DXCC entities.
The DXpedition will start its journey in the Falkland Islands, and team anticipates sailing for 12 days through the treacherous waters of the South Atlantic Ocean before setting up camp, and operating from, Bouvet Island for 22 days. At the conclusion of our DXpedition, the team will then sail another 12 days to the end point of the DXpedition: Cape Town, South Africa.

This narrow area of volcanic rock at Kapp Fie will be our QTH, 250' above the black sand beach where we will be landing in Zodiacs. See it now in 4K HD full screen mode. Yagis, verticals and our tents will be up here. How will we get the equipment onto the beach and up the hill? What will the camp layout look like? Parts of the plan are being tested in Norway right now. We plan on having video ...

I like Bouvet but I think it is not easy to reach!
..."so if you only have 100 watts and a wire, don't even try it..." 🤦🏽♂️ Someone please tell her you can have a kw, but if there's no PROPAGATION....
Nothing there, just rock and snow, no lives

Awesome! As a long-time fan of Bouvet and a newly licensed ham this is very exciting. It would be my dream to make a QSO! Best of luck and 73 de W6ADL

Boys, what a challenge.... I really admire your efforts and will support your plans money-wise and by publishing articles in DXtra, the monthly DX column of CQDL - German ham radio magazine -- vy73/55, Tom DL1HBT
Good luck ⛰
Wow!
