DXPedition To Bhutan A5A qrv 6 m


The FGC DX Group (*Foundation for Global Children) is pleased to announce their next multi-national DXpedition to Bhutan, callsign A5A. We will begin operations by May 24, 2012 and will run until June 6th. They will activate 80 to 6 m including the WARC bands using modes: SSB, CW, and RTTY. They will erect high gain antennas, utilize receive antennas, and run amplifiers at 3 stations. The QTH is in the mountains (more info very soon) and they are aware of where Bhutan is needed most and will focus on these areas when the band is open there. Also, they intend to listen carefully to the needs (see Poll here) of the DX community during the operation by monitoring the activity on their  website and other social media outlets for band openings, and dialogue with the radio community. On 6m they will run 700w into a 6 el yagi. More info in their web http://bhutan2012.com/
