Congratulations to my Rockwork cliff DXpedition partner Tom Rothlisberger
for once again making out like a bandit in tracking down multiple low power
Longwave beacons from Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific islands.
This past DXpedition produced a record haul for Tom, who ended up will 55
of these beacons-- including 6 which had never been heard previously from North
America (such as 332-BHI in Broken Hill, Australia). On my PL-380 and 12"
Longwave FSL I was able to track down one of these on August 8th (260-NF from
Norfolk Island, Australia), which was my first Ultralight South Pacific NDB
reception in five years. Great work, Tom!
7 years ago (in August of 2011) a newly minted NDB DXer first had the
wacky idea of setting up for South Pacific NDB reception on the plunging ocean
cliff with an Ultralight and 6" FSL, as detailed in the wild DXpedition report
