ZK2 - Niue on 60m band

Joe, W8GEX shared information as follows:
---
My good friend Jan DJ8NK is going to Sierra Leone as 9L0W from w8gexBanana island. He'll be on next Wednesday the 23 and again on Thursday the 24 at 2230z on channel 5 both days. If he has QRN or QRM he'll TX on channel 4. This will be a all time NEW ONE on 60 meters. Jan will listen for Europe at his sunset.

NIUE: ZK2V Chris (GM3WOJ) now has special permission to operate on the 60m band.


He reports: This permit is from 1st December until 7th December - Niue time, which equates to 1100 UTC on 1st December until 1100UTC on 8th December 2011. I am intending to install a more 'DX' antenna than the inverted-vee I had in 2009, so hoping for some further DX.3.5MHz and 7MHz are very noisy here on the island, so I am hoping that QRN will not be a problem.

Thank You to Joe for sharing this information and good luck to all Tropical pioneers with hunting him on this lovely band.
