October Presentation: 3Y0K – Breaking the Curse
This presentation is about the successful activation of Bouvet Island after several less than successful previous DXpeditions. Team, planning, logistics, weather, operating, and results will be included in the presentation – as well as domestic Q&A.
Program Speaker: Robert (Bob) Ronk, W9AP, of Winneconne, Wisconsin was first licensed in 1979 as KA9EQH, and immediately fell in love with DXing and Towers & Antennas. DXpedition experience includes annual trips to FS operating with good friends, 9G, and 3Y. Contesting activities are primarily from AA9A multi single. Primary operating modes are Phone and Digital. I achieved Honor Roll early in 2026. Involvement in DX Clubs is important to me; I’m currently serving as President of NEWDXA, General Chairman of W9DXCC, and trying to assist Bill AJ8B in forming ODXC. In June 2026 he was named the new ARRL Central Division Vice Director. The central division includes Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin.
