Hello All, For those interested in the latest wacky idea to track down exotic South Pacific DX on Ultralight radios, a brief video of the 400' high Cape Perpetua ocean cliff site on Highway 101 in Oregon has been uploaded to YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZzBfstOXA4
Included in the video are the two fanatical DXpeditioners pushing their luck this past week on the cliff (Norm Clark of Monmouth, Oregon and yours truly), the 8" Medium Wave DXpedition FSL antenna on its 5' PVC base, the new-design 7.5" MW loopstick Tecsun PL-380 Ultralight, and scenery from the sheer ocean cliff site. The Spartan road side conditions are on full display in this video, showing the lack of AC power, running water, weather protection or adequate lighting. Despite all these challenges the Medium Wave and Longwave DXpedition results proved to be successful beyond all expectations, and a perfect cure for DXing boredom for decades to come! 73 and Good DX, Gary DeBock (now back in Puyallup, WA, USA) _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
