San F‚lix Island
""""""""""""""""
After my experience in CE0Z Juan Fernandez Isl 2014 as CE0Z/CE5WQO I
decided to make all efforts to put another Chilean most wanted ON AIR, so
San F‚lix Isl is on my mind.
A few months ago I announced information of my next activity to CE0X San
F‚lix Isl. The original idea was a small team of three operators, but after
receive many e-mails from different stations around the world proposing the
idea of forming a large Team, I have been in contact with some US stations
to make this possible.
After hard work in The Chilean Ministry of Telecommunication and The Navy,
authorizations and permissions are granted - for now just need to take care
of the logistical details to put this entity on air.
Then came a team of world-renowned operators, with whom I worked with.
Today, the relations with the team are broken, for a lack of trust, and the
lack of support in logistics since most of the work I've done myself, and
is easy to receive news at the other side of the desk, while one who makes
efforts and spends money for this project it is one, guess who...
I decided to announce that the team will be only for three operators:
Dima/RA9USU on CW, other operator for Digital/CW, and me on SSB.
We will cover from 160 - 6 meters in SSB CW RTTY. I need to confirm that
this entity will be on air in 2017, with or without a large team, and the
exact date is still not defined.
My efforts will be for the chance that I have to put this entity on air,
to bring a new entity to many Hams in the world, 14 years have passed
since the last dxpedition, and will pass another 14 years, because this
opportunity must not be wasted, it is very difficult to get these permits
especially for foreigners.
The second press release will include information with more details.
Thanks to all the friends that has send support and friendship to make
this project happen...
