Activity will be on 80-6 meters with operations mainly on RTTY, PSK and

VK9C, COCOS KEELING ISLANDS (Update/Reminder). Operators Phil/G3SWH and
Jim/G3RTE will be active from West Island in the Cocos (Keeling) Islands
between February 22nd and March 5th. The Cocos (Keeling) Islands count
as OC-003 for IOTA purposes. The 2010 "Most Wanted" survey by the DX
Magazine shows the Cocos (Keeling) Islands at #76 worldwide for DXCC
purposes. Both operators will use the single callsign of VK9C/G6AY. Their
activity will be on CW only on all bands 80-10 meters. There will be no
160, 6 meters or EME activity. Propagation permitting, they plan to have
two stations on the air for as many hours every day as is possible. Their
main objective is to work as many European, North American and ROTW
stations on as many different bands as possible and plan to make at
least 15,000 QSOs. QSL via G3SWH, either direct with SAE and adequate
return postage (recommended), via Phil's web site for a bureau reply or
via the Bureau. This will be a very expensive DXpedition. They are happy
to meet the costs of transport to and from the islands, but are seeking
sponsorship and donations from individuals, DX clubs and organizations
towards their living expenses on the island, printing QSLs and the like.
