Preparing the Equipment at Home

DXpedition equipment assembled and working. Time to pack it up.
My poor beat up K3 Classic. It’s been to many countries and it sports quite a few dents and scratches, but it’s still ticking.

Besides American Samoa and Fiji, this is the station we will use as KH7Z/mm. 20 Meters only aboard ship.

The Hotel – Sadies by the Sea
