Message from the HARAOA Group

The HARAOA Group have orginized a DXpedition to Norfolk Island (OC-005) 22nd - 29th of July 2009.

The VK9NI Team will take part in the RSGB IOTA Contest (25th - 26th July 2009) during there stay, under the callsign VK9IR. Due to the limitation of the IOTA contest we will be submitting the VK9IR Log as a compliant multi-single entry.


The VK9NI callsign will be operated on multiple bands simulataneously to give everyone the maximum chance to contact Norfolk Is (OC-005) during the contest. The VK9NI log will be submitted to the RSGB as a checklog only as it will not be compliant with the IOTA contest rules - (our understanding is that no multi-multi operation is allowed).

Team consists of operators that have a vast experience in DXpeditions & Contests, and some that are looking forward to there first Dxpedition.
