St Paul Island

This DXPedition is great for me as first of all I don’t have CY9 in the log.  Secondly due to its location I stand a fairly good chance of getting them on a few bands,  Located just off Cape Breton Island should give me dependable communications on 40, 80 and even a chance of 160 should they decide to operate on the top band.  I will also be listening on 6m with the hopes of contacting the 6m operator Kevin VE3EN.

This DXpedition has  a local flair to it as Kevin VE3EN and Steve VA3FM both hail from Eastern Ontario.  When I was camping in Cornwall Ontario a few years ago I worked them on Groundwave during 2009 Field Day and I have worked Kevin on 6m from the Champlain Lookout when I was operating portable/ve2.

Its nice to be calling a DXPedition where you actually know the operators at the other end…

This is one I am really looking forward to…
