they have created. Please check the web site for more information. 73 Natan W6XR/2 Frozen Tundra DXpedition University 2001 Learn the art and "How To" of DXpedition Planning and Running Pileups! Envisioned some 10 years ago and after 2 years of writing the material, DX University is now a reality. DXpedition University ("DXU") is the first of its kind to provide a training ground for energetic radio amateurs wanting to learn the foundational methods and tactics of DXpeditioning. A group of 6-10 hams will go to a proven site in Jamaica (6Y). Participants become part of a team, just like the World Record 6Y2A Team. Learning begins before the trip with planning procedures and continues through the Jamaica stay. With expert hands-on training, team members will be shown the essential skills needed to feel confident about venturing out on their own DX-oriented vacations and in their ability to run and control pile-ups. There is not only personal instruction, as hard copy manuals covering all aspects are also included. Besides setting up a complete multiple transmitter station and running DX pile-ups during the week, the team will participate in the A.R.R.L. SSB contest, with additional pointers provided real-time. This is a learning environment and all questions will be answered and fully explained. The Jamaican accommodations are radio-oriented (not a luxury hotel) and include full time staff, transportation (private driver), plus side trips during the week. To learn more about DXU and how you can join the team in Jamaica, visit the DXU site at: http://pages.prodigy.net/k2kw/dxu/ 73, and hope to see you in Jamaica!
