This month, we turn the keyboard over to Gregg Marco, W6IZT, who is on a team sponsored by the Northern California DX Foundation (NCDXF) to create “RIBs” for DXpedition use (A “RIB” is a self-contained “Radio In a Box”.). In my August DX column, we first introduced you to RIBs and their potential impact to the future of DXpeditions. This month, Gregg will provide some more detail into the project.
I personally find this aspect fascinating and a step into keeping amateur radio alive on many of the most sensitive entities around the globe! I think that you will agree after reading this that the RIB team is taking us into the future of DXpeditions. I wholeheartedly endorse this project and want to thank NCDXF for its sponsorship. I want to also acknowledge George Wallner, AA7JV; Gregg Marco, W6IZT; Mike Snow, KN4EEI; Don Greenbaum, N1DG; and Hal Turley, W8HC, among others, for their participation in this awesome project.
