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
