I sure wish they were getting on 6m as well.  I know there are a LOT of 6m 
folks in the 160m ranks.

For all the effort it would take to put up a 3el yagi or even a measely 
vertical  - - -   heck, their 40m antenna
would probably work on 6m...Their K3's already have 6m in them.....

SIGH....

I emailed some months back and not even the courtesy of a reply.  Can other 
pse ask them about 6m?

  Good Day All,

  I just received this bulletin from The Radio Amateurs of Canada, by way of 
a friend of mine (Ed, VA3ES)...

  May the Topband propagation force be with them...!   : >)

  There is going to be a Dxpedition to Pitcairn Island (OC-044, CQ Zone

  is made of Jacques F6BEE, Gilles VE2TZT, Nigel G3TXF, Michel FM5CD and
  Vincent F4BKV

  They will be on all bands 160-10 metres including the WARC bands
  during their stay.

  They will try and upload the VP6T log to LoTW during the operation if
  they can. if not, they will upload the logs after their arrival home.
  They will try to update their VP6T log on "ClubLog" as often as they
  can during the operation.

  For their operating plans, QSL information and other information, take
