While doing a little research on the upcoming K4M Midway DXpedition, I stumbled on the site of the Midway/Kure DX Foundation's K7K & K4M operations circa 1997/8, at http://www.qsl.net/eudxf/stories/k7k.html (The web page is undated, but refers to the "previous" 1996 Midway expedition & a 1997 survey)
At the end of the article is this curious little tidbit:
"Following Kure, the team returned for a 2-night, one-day stay on Midway where they made approx. 3,000 QSOs as K4M before returning to Kauai and onward to their respective homes. As chairman of the Midway-Kure DX Foundation, Frank AHØW and Yuuji Yoshitani JA3IG/K1NT also worked out an arrangement with officials on Midway whereby two permanent HF stations will be installed in Midway's hangar to include two fully-equipped ICOM HF tions and Force-12, Cushcraft and other antennas. The stations should be ready beginning the first of 1999."
Whatever happened to those two stations?
