Buddies in the Caribbean 2011 Mini-DXpedition to Dominica Part 2

(Part 2) In Feb/2011 the "Buddies in the Caribbean" DXpedition (a group of 8-hams specializing in 100 watt or less low power radios and the Buddipole portable antenna system) spent a week operating from the island of Dominica on beaches, mountains and from their cliff-side villa. This is an annual effort to demonstrate "ultralight" DXpeditioning into magnificent "vista" locations, operate a field portable battery-only radio with back-packable, lightweight antennas and most of all "have fun!"

Excellent... enjoyed the video very much. Now I must get out there with my FT817 and Buddipole which have both been gathering dust in my garage for a year!

Excellent! But you're using external tuner? I like to travel light; carry an analyzer but no tuner. Hope to work you guys this year, Buddi to Buddi!
