The fellow who helps to run the Iowa, David KJ6HZO, is in pretty good with the Navy.
Perhaps he could help to facilitate a DXpedition. I will ask him.

For those of us trying to work all the grids in the lower 48 (similar to the Fred Fish award on 6m) it's one of the more difficult. ND9M/MM worked from there when his ship passed through, and that's the only operation I know of in recent times. The other tough ones have had some activity, like EL84 (K4T expedition) and EL58 (UT1FG/MM), but I think DM02 is the toughest.

Hah!
Had to look that one up, Drew.
I've cruised past it many times on the Sea Launch Commander when I worked for Sea Launch.

Figure out a way to operate from DM02 and you'd be a hero!

Is DM03 really that "rare"?
If it is, I'll get on the birds more often.

The Palos Verdes Amateur Radio Club is operating from Santa Catalina Island, DM03rk through Sunday. They have been worked on SO-50 but have about a 10-12 degree horizon. DM03 is not on that often although some of it is on the mainland. Callsign is the club call, K6PV/p. 73, John K8YSE
