[arrl-odv:14121] History Buffs

For you history buffs, VI9NI came on the air as scheduled from Norfolk Island this morning with a great signal on 30 meters. This special callsign was issued for the celebration of the 150th anniversary of the landing of the HMS Bounty Mutineers. Of course, not all of this merry band of mutineers stayed on Norfolk. As we all know some set out with Mr. Christian and wound up on Pitcairn Island. Watch your favorite DX reflector for postings. I only need Norfolk Is. on 160 meters so I have fingers on both hands (as well as toes on one foot) crossed while I rub a rabbits foot! 73 Joel W5ZN
