    VP6R PITCAIRN ISLAND DXPEDITION NEWS (Updates). The following was posted
    on the VP6R Web page (https://pitcairndx.com/news-and-updates/), August
    14th and 17th with pictures:
    * August 14th: Today the RV Braveheart completed the loading of its
    cargo, including all our Pitcairn Island Dxpedition equipment. Our
    Flex radios, ACOM amplifiers, Yagi and vertical antennas, masts,
    feedlines, computers, network gear, tools, and our personal luggage
    is all aboard and securred. The vessel will depart Tauranga, New
    Zealand early next week.
    We’ve had a slight change in plans which benefits everyone. The
    Braveheart will make a preliminary stop at Pitcairn on September 6th.
    Our gear will come off the vessel and be stored on the island until
    we arrive on about October 17. This should get us on the air faster
    and circumvent any potential weather delays.
    Things are moving quickly now and our team is anxious to get under-
    way. If you’ve supported us, we thank you. If not, please consider
    doing so. Cash is flowing out very rapidly now. No matter what, let’s
    do this thing and have some fun!

    * August 17th: Here are some images taken during the arrival of our
    sea container at the pier and the transfer of our gear onto the
    Braveheart. It has yet to be stowed and secured. Nigel and a friend
    are seen seated in the container. Matt Jolly, Nigel’s son, is in
    the “selfie” with our gear in the background. The lattice tower
    sections are part of the DX Engineering ninty foot 160 meter vertical.
    A complete Flex station is inside nine of the black Pelican cases.

    VP9, BERMUDA. Josh, W9HT, will once again be active as W9HT/VP9 from

    W4, UNITED STATES (Special Event). Members of the Lake County Amateur
    Radio Association (LCARA, N8BC) will activate special event station W4G
    for the 103rd anniversary celebration of the National Park Service in
    conjunction with the James A. Garfield Presidential Home in Mentor, OH.
    This Callsign was chosen so that they could use the phonetics on Phone
    of "Washington For Garfield" (Washington 4 Garfield). The celebration
    will take place on the grounds of the Garfield Presidential Home on
    Sunday, August 25th. They will have stations operating on various bands
    and modes to make the special event callsign workable by Amateurs across
    North America and possibly the World. They expect numerous stations will
    be calling them to say the least!
