International Lighthouse and Lightship Weekend 2010
We will be operating from the two lighthouses again this year.
Nigel and his crew from Cape Naturaliste Light as VK6CNL, and Wally from Cape Leeuwin Light as VK6CLL.
Starting early this year, but Wally VK6YS is again looking for a volunteer or even better, volunteers, to assist with the operation at Cape Leeuwin. If you would like to spend a wonderful weekend at the
most Southwesterly point of Australia and play radio at the same time, please .
VK6IOA - OC211 Robertson Island, Pelsaert Group, Houtmans Abrolhous Dxpedition
With the dxpedition well and truly done and dusted, Alan VK4AAR has all the QSL materials, so please make sure you direct QSL's for the operation to him.
We have not made any specific plans for any particular Western Australian operations for this year, but that all depends on many things. We have still got a number of WA entities to get to so will keep planning and thinking.
West OZ DX
The group is an affiliation of radio amateurs, mainly from Western Australia, and interested in working from portable amateur radio stations as part of IOTA and lighthouse activation in particular, but also participating in field day events and emergency operations.
Members of the group have activated the IOTA groups OC-071, OC-234, OC243, OC266, OC-206, OC-193, OC-164, and OC-211. Short stories and photos from each activation are included in the IOTA pages. There are many IOTA's off the Western Australian coast, and we are steadily working towards operating from as many as is possible.
If you are interested in joining future expeditions please
