Angola DXpedition Promises People the moon

South African amateur Bernie ZS4TX is going on a different kind of DXpedition: operating portable using EME on 2m between the 12th and 16th of August. This is supposed to be the first time Angola has ever been activated by a ham using EME. He’s going a great distance in another way too: driving there. That means he will travel more than 2800 km over four days and make the final six-hour trip of 220 km on dirt roads. Bernie is a veteran at EME. He’s hoping that by travelling by land he can bring larger and better antennas to the site and give more people a chance to work this unprecedented activation.
