PRESS RELEASE #5

Midway Island 2009

Press Release Number 5         July 22, 2009

The K4M team has passed a very important milestone with the shipment this week of 2 tons of radios, linears, antennas (20 of them), radios (6), computers and interfaces, thousands of feet of coax and stubs, and various connectors, switches, wattmeters, and all the supplies you would expect from an operation on a remote Island. Below is a picture of a portion of the freight:

The gear will be stored in Hawaii until the supply ship leaves in 3 weeks to Midway.

Our charter flight to the Island is confirmed. The team is assembled. Fundraising continues on our website, www.midway2009.com . If you haven't visited it in a while stop by and help support our effort. All pre expedition contributors who are on LOTW will receive their confirmations within a week of the end of the DXPedition.

This month we are highlighting three more team members. You can read all their history at
