active as 3D2C from Conway Reef between September 24th and October 5th.
Their primary objective is to provide as many DXers as possible with a
"new one" with this rare DXCC entity and, as a secondary objective, to
give as many band-slots as possible. They would like to focus on European
contacts which is the most difficult area to work especially during
those periods when propagation is possible, so they ask that JA and
North America to stand-buy during those periods. Activity will be on
160-2 meters using CW, SSB, RTTY, SSTV and PSK31. See OPDX.1045 for
suggested frequencies. Currently, the Multi-national team consists of
