- [UPDATE] –
Providing that the AU2K operation remains on track and is successful, the team is considering the possibility of operating from Sagar Island, AS-153. This IOTA reference in the rarest among the VU ones, in demand by 83% of the IOTA chasers. We have applied today for a special callsign, which will be announced once issued. The operation will be carried out by the entire team, using the same equipment employed in the AU2K project. Sagar is a densely inhabited island, which can have an adverse effect on the local noise level. Rest assured that we will be looking for a good location. The operation is tentatively scheduled between Dec 10 and 13.
- [OCTOBER 11] –
A team composed of Cezar (VE3LYC, VU3LPL), Sarath (VU2RS), Adi (VU3WEW), and Anil (VU3DXA) will attempt to operate as AU2K from Kanika Island, AS-179NEW, between December 2 and 7, 2024.
Regretfully, Frank (DL4KQ), who planned and worked on this project with us, will be unable to join the team due to family and work-related issues. More information can be found on the expedition website.
We seek financial support from those who are able and willing to help us defray some of the large costs required by this project.
