Ham Radio 360: WA7NB DX-pedition…Planning, Operations, Fun!

A DX-pedition is an expedition to what is considered an exotic place by amateur radio operators, perhaps because of its remoteness, access restrictions or simply because there are very few radio amateurs active from that place. This could be an island, a country, or even a particular spot on a geographical grid. DX is a telegraphic shorthand for "distance" or "distant". ....linked from Wikipedia In the newest episode of the Fo Time Podcast, we're joined by Art Blank, WA7NB from Arizona. Art has been participating in DX-peditions since 1995 and the discussion revolves around planning and funding a DX-pedition along with logistics and operations. Art's latest involvement was with the Juan Fernandez Island DX-pedition in 2013. If you are interested in exploring this end of the Ham Radio hobby, this episode is for you.
