TESTING FOR JARVIS

[IK0ZCW]

As the N5J DXpedition to Jarvis Island will be challenged by both the season (especially on the low bands) and antenna restrictions, a series of preliminary tests will be conducted between 25 June and
25 July. This will include testing new antennas and the extended remote operator network from two locations:
* on 25 June-2 July, FW7JV (Wallis and Futuna) will be test the low band antennas (160, 80 and 40m) and a new 40/20m antenna;
* on 10-25 July, K8R (American Samoa) will be test all systems on all bands CW, SSB and FT8, including activity during the IARU HF World Championship.
Actual signal reports will be appreciated during both test periods.
