(Moving discussion to DX Chat)

Cedric,

When the US Fish & Wildlife Service decided to permit the Desecheo
operation, the impression left was that groups would be permitted to land on
& operate from both Desecheo and Navassa every few years.

A lot of this going forward was dependent on how well the entire Desecheo
operation went.  As far as I know, it went well.

But we are dealing with government bureaucrats who have their own standards
and their own way of doing things.  So all we can do is be patient and wait
for F&WS to decide if & when to let the group go to Navassa.

Hi Cedric!

Bouvet was actually on air in 2008 (3Y0E). The op was a brand new ham
by the name of Petrus. He was a very weak signal on 20m phone but
workable from here.  I haven't heard of anything else since then.

Desecheo was a couple of years ago too but news about Navassa has been
pretty much slim to none. My guess is that activating Navassa would be
significantly more difficult than Desecheo. Here is the website of the
group that did KP5 - http://www.kp1-5.com/news.html
