Re: [IRCA] Leaving the "Hope" with great DXing memories

Allen,

Your DXing accomplishments in Newfoundland have already pretty much become legendary among the Ultralight Radio enthusiast group (as well as those by Rob Ross in Ontario, Richard Allen in Oklahoma and Gary Deacon in South Africa).

It's doubtful than anyone else will ever receive so much transoceanic Medium Wave DX on an unmodified pocket radio-- and you have shown us all what patience and determination (along with a pretty favorable location :-)  can accomplish!

Hello To All,
Tonight will be my last official evening of Dxing here in the "Hope" ( unless 
future Dxpeditions here may be in the cards at some point in time )  as we make 
final preparations for our temporary move tomorrow to Northern Bay, Newfoundland 
. 
As mentioned prior,  during the month of October while there, will be the start 
of the Northern Bay Medium Wave DXpedition as soon as things can be set up for 
equipment/antenna etc. 
My wish is that team members of the other upcoming Dxpeditions in Prince Edward 
Island and other locations have great success this fall season with their Dxing 
efforts. Good luck to all.
Previously mentiond was the fact that we may not have intenet nor phone at the 
residence during the first leg of this two part move. There are neighbours in 
that community, friends and relatives not far away , who may help out with 
access to these things in that regard. 
I will try and submit an update / log report  when I can of what is being heard 
in Northern Bay as time marches on.
We will definitely be back online sometime after Nov 1 in Carbonear NL which 
will become our new permanent residence . 
I leave the "Hope" with some great DXing memories , logging my 1000th AM station 
on Ultralight radio , hearing my 100th country and finally capturing my two 
farthest DX catches thus far,  India on 1566 and 1071  all accomplished using an 
Ultralight Radio.
I hope every one has a great fall DX season this year. 
　
Good DX 
Allen Willie
Bristol's Hope, Newfoundland
