Hi Mark,

 

Chris Knight and myself just came back from a mini DXpedition to Padre island 
last Saturday 15th, we have a lot of recordings to go through both of us, but 
early indications are showing a few Columbians being heard and of course tons 
of Cubans and Mexicans.

There is a list of logs in the next DXN magazine which I have sent in the Bruce 
Conti.

 

Thanks

Subject: [NRC-AM] Autumn 2016 DXpeditions?

 

I'm curious as to what DXpeditions are on tap before winter sets in.

"Who's going where when?"

Of greatest interest to me are ones along the US and Canadian Atlantic 
coastline such as:
PEI - I think Bruce Conti, Brent Taylor, and some others are signed up for that
Newfoundland - ?
NJ coast (Long Beach Island?)

Of course, here in the east, results from those outings are augmented well by 
near-DXpedition-grade home-based reporters such as Allen Willie in NL, Michael 
Yule in NS, Brent Taylor in PEI, Sylvain Naud in QC, a few of us in New 
England, and sporadic contributors from other coastal hotspots such as the NC 
Outer Banks and south FL. 

Still somewhat relevant to me would be news about DXpeditions in Europe, 
Africa, South America, the Caribbean, and Bermuda.

The West Coast guys must have some activities cooked up (such as Rockworks, 
Grayland, and Haida Gwaii).  Every so often trips to Hawaii are mentioned.  
Japanese and Australian DXers are likely to be active sometime too.

I'm thinking of doing at least one or two sessions from the car at beach sites 
within an hour's drive time.  Typically these would be around local sunset at 
sites providing more consistent / strong TA and South American signals than can 
normally be obtained at the house.  Maybe I would try to coordinate a 
mini-DXpedition night with others' activities in PEI or NL as I've done in some 
previous years.
