The SEISA/Foundation for Global Children is pleased to announce our next
activity as “Eritrea Project 2015”.  As part of this project, we will
conduct an amateur radio DXpedition from Asmara Eritrea, from March 6th
to 17th, 2015.

Franz - DJ9ZB
Jay - JA1TRC

We are very excited about this announcement as it has taken many months of careful
planning and negotiations to bring about this amateur radio event.  Our DXpedition
call sign will be assigned to us upon our arrival in the capitol of Asmara.
 
We will use four transceivers consisting of two Elecraft K3 radios with the KPA500
amplifiers and two Kenwood TS590 transceivers with the ACOM 1010 amplifiers.
 
We will use beam antennas for the high bands (10-20 meters) and four verticals
