Gary, am not a Costco member but would rejoin. Does this package have a particular designation to insure it would be the same as yours?

Consider joining the November 1-7 ocean beach DXpedition at Poipu Kai on Hawaii's Kauai Island-- the closest of the main Hawaiian islands to Asia. This point features an unobstructed salt water path to Asia and the South Pacific, as well as to North and South America.

A Home Depot store about 20 minutes away provides access to broadband loop materials like PVC pipes, antenna wire and concrete bases.

For two DXers who would share one of the comfortable condos, the cost of the entire trip (per person) would be about $ 1,200. Three of us are already making plans for an awesome DXing vacation, and if you would like to join us in this hobby thrill of a lifetime, we would be honored to have you with us!
