La importancia de ayudar a las expediciones y el uso del OQRS @LA7GIA #OQRS #Hamradio hk3w.blogspot.com/2026/10/de…
Peter I Island Expedition container packed! Today I also booked my flight ticket to Chile where we depart Jan 22nd 2027. Camping on Peter I Island has always been a dream and it will be more challenging than Bouvetøya. With a $1,95M budget we will need all donations we can get. – at Skedsmo, Norge

Ken LA7GIA (3Y0K Team lead):
We just finished a very successful expedition to Bouvetøya in the South Atlantic Ocean. What an incredible trip! Depsite all the challenges, the team overcome each of them. We made contact with 102.000 persons during our 15 day stay. We encountered harsh conditions, snow, and wind sometimes was so strong we could barely walk outdoor. Bouvetøya is a beautiful island, but is known for its remoteness and unpredictable weather. The team worked well together and we're proud of having made 100k contacts under these conditions. Today everyone is safely back on the vessel and we're bound for Cape Town this weekend. Thanks to everyon who supported us and who was in the pileup!

3YØK have paid the $400,000 vessel deposit today! This weekend the team meet in Oslo for packing the container, and it will be shipped in 1 month. Our plans are firm, and we have lined up the equipment in a staged approach, where equipment will be taken onshore with helicopter.
ONE seat left for Bouvet adventure! Get in touch if you fancy a cold trip that involves assembling antennas in strong wind. We offer sleeping on ground, panoramic view from restroom and MRE meals. Cluster will provide feedback on your operating skill. No glory, only hard work.
Lotto is being refunded. The operator fee has increased by an average of 40%. If you want to support our Bouvet Island effort please donate via [email protected]. In a few weeks time we pay $400,000 vessel deposit and by that time we have paid in total apprx $1,000,000
