Hi Victor, Dave, KD3V here. Its been nice to work you on a number of bands. I would love to join you on the island for some DXing. Can you send me some details on what it takes to get there and all info you think pertinent! My email address is kd3v@arrl.net as you might know.
I have operated from Turkey years ago and have been extremely interested in getting to the islands. I spent 2 weeks in Tahiti and need more of the same!
