My Wake Island Adventures

I will operate as KH7AL/KH9 while on Wake Island during my days off from work (from the end of 2024 and into 2025). I welcome working many DX from this prime spot in the Pacific. This is also a POTA location (UM-0009, Wake Island National Wildlife Refuge), Grid Square RK39, ITU Zone 65, CQ Zone 31, IOTA OC-053, DXCC Wake Island.

Where in the world is Wake Island?

Where? About 925 miles west of the international date line. 2,300 miles west of Honolulu. 3,800 miles north of Sydney. 2,000 miles southest of Tokyo. 3,600 miles south of Anchorage. In other words, far from everywhere and and halfway to where you are going.

For more inforation about my activity on Wake Island check out my Upcoming and KH9 Blog pages on this site.

As for my equipment on Wake, I have my Yeasu FT-891, and several dipole antenna options (10, 15, 17, 20, 30, & 40m), SSB or CW only. Please be patient and courteous and I will do my best to work everyone I can
