Yeah, funny isn't it?  A hotly contested lump of rock fought over by two rather 
dodgy governments, yet it's possible to get permission to operate.

However, in the Home Of The Brave and the Land Of The Free it's not allowed to 
go to KP1 and KP5.

Scarborough Reef DXpedition
Announcing the 2007 DXpedition to Huang Yan Dao - better known as Scarborough 
Reef

After three years of effort to obtain permission to land and operate from the 
most needed entity in the world, that needed authorization has been received.

A multi-national team led by W6RGG will operate from Scarborough Reef for ten 
days in late April 2007.

BA1HAM and BV4FH have been instrumental in bringing this operation to reality 
with ongoing support being provided by N4XP, N1DG, K5YY and N6MZ.

A team is being assembled that will include members from Asia, Europe and the 
USA.

As with any DXpedition to a location such as this, transportation is very 
costly and will be the largest single expense. Success will depend on the 
contributions of the DX Community.

Please QRX for more information as it becomes available and the web site is 
activated.

Sounds like a well-respected group of Dxpeditioners are involved.  What 
makes you think it's not for real?
