Vía DX Coffee: The idea for this expedition was born a number of years ago while Barry Fletcher ZS1FJ-9V1FJ was traveling home following a multi-island DXpedition to French Polynesia. This small-scale, self-funded, expedition is undertaken by four highly motivated friends who will endeavor to make as many contacts as possible on all the bands. The scale of the expedition is dictated by aircraft luggage constraints and all the equipment will be transported by the team as part of their luggage limits.
