October 14 – Update from Hans SM6CVX:
Just less than a week before first stop on our six different P29-island activty. Please remember if you need QSL from old/new islands from our activety, include 2 USD or 1 new IRC for maximum 4 islands. If you ask for more than 4 islands QSLs, please include 4 USD or 2 New IRCs to cover postage. All logs from 2005 up to 2012 still in hands of SM6CVX and G3KHZ. This year 5 operators will do most bands with CW priority, but also SSB, RTTY and some PSK31.
September 21 – P29VPB callsign added for OC-069 activity.

An international team will visit 5 islands belonging to Papua New Guinea between 19 October and 4 November.
The team is G3KHZ Derek, SM6CVX Hans, HB9BXE Hans-Peter, K5WQG Eddy, DL6KVA Axel and non-ham Stig Nyman.
Website for full details.
An exciting trip where few westerners have been before you.
Good luck and be sure to take the anti malaria medication as and when you should.
Hi Brian
Yes, and we will be very happy to work you and others from all Islands on most band modes as we can.
See you in pile-up

Hi
you will be active on 160 m. ??
gl de ik5mej
We might try 160 meter one or two nights,,,,BUT it is not the
best year. I think for 160 meter, we need to wait 5 years or so,,,,
BUT IF we have time, we do have antenna 160 meter inverted dipole,,,and may be,,,,

Would love to get P29 in log for 160m. Shouldn’t be too hard from VK3, but understand your thoughts on stage of the solar cycle. And the logistics of running a 160m station on DXpedition.
Will enjoy working a few new IOTA, any band/mode.
73 es GL,

Any chance this and previous P29 logs will be uploaded to LoTW?
Great start, crazy activity! Keep it up! Thanks!
