The nearest land is 1700 km away.  

Bouvet Island is currently Number 2 on the DXCC Most Wanted List (do you know the number 1 country without searching for it?).  Are you ready to take Bouvet Island off your list?  

We have some thoughts to share with you that might help.

Our own Lou, N2TU, who has been part of many DXPeditions all over the world talks about just where and when to transmit.  He has been on the other end more than a few times, so this is valuable information.

He also shows us the power of VOACAP for propagation advice.  How it works from your QTH and with your antenna farm.

For SSB and CW, they will be operating Split.  This is when the power of the panadapter and waterfall seriously helps with just where you should transmit.  

Near the end of the video, Lou goes over the 10 Commandments of DXPedition Operation.  These are great words of wisdom.
