Tomorrow, Fred, WW4LL, Brian, N4OO (ex NA4BW), Eric, W4DXX, and I will 
be leaving by air for Bonaire and the rental QTH there.  We should 
arrive on the island about 2100Z Tuesday.  It will take us a while to 
get a rental car, buy groceries, and get to the shack.  It may be that 
we will not be QRV until Wednesday.  Probably most of Wednesday will be 
taken up with putting out beverages and setting up the station, but you 
may begin to see spots for PJ4/home calls.  Some of you may not have 
worked Bonaire on some bands or modes since it became a new DXCC entity 
separate from PJ2 on 10-10-10.  We will be using CW, RTTY, and SSB 
outside the contest.

In CQ WPX SSB, we will use the contest call PJ4Z, the same call that 
Fred and I used in ARRL 10M Contest in 2004.  Feel free to ask for QSYs 
to other bands and modes. We may not be able to accommodate all such 
requests, but we will try.  Look for spots and drop by for a QSO or several.

All PJ4Z and some of the portable operations will be uploaded to LOTW 
after we return home, which will be on March 27th.

I will try to be QRV in NAQCC Sprint Wednesday night and in NCCC NS 
Thursday night.

73, John, K4BAI.
