VP6D equipment on the way to New Zealand.
Chris N6WM and Walt N6XG report that on the evening of Wednesday, Aug 8th our customs broker accepted the VP6D shipment for transport to Braveheart in New Zealand. The shipment will soon begin its long journey.
We appreciate the assistance from: Jim K8JRK for the loan of the Halliburton cases used for the shipment, Ross K6GFJ for his coordination activities, and Paul N6PSE of the Intrepid DX Group for their loan of a BGAN and additional Pelican cases.
Also, while in California we attended a meeting with members of the recently completed KH1/KH7Z Baker Island project for a debrief. We were especially interested in their FT8 experience.
Look for our photos on VP6D.com under the “Photos Tab”.
