COCONUT TREES ON THE BEACH THAT WE USED TO PULL UP THE INVERTED V/DIPOLES
FOR THE LOW BANDS.  WE SET UP OUR FLAGPOLE WITH THE COLORS OF THE USA,
JAPAN, FRANCE AND AMERICAN SAMOA.  OUR FIRST DAY AND NIGHT WERE SPENT
GETTING AS MANY STATIONS AS POSSIBLE IN THE LOGS ON SSB.  WE ESTABLISHED
SEVERAL GOALS FOR THIS FIRST SHORT DXPEDITION TO A NEW ENTITY AMONG THEM
WAS TO GIVE A CONTACT TO THE LARGEST NUMBER OF STATIONS.  TO ENSURE THIS,
WE COVERED EVERY AREA OF THE WORLD WHERE THERE WAS AN OPENING.  FOLLOWING
THE DX IS LEAD OF CASS AND THE WEST COAST DX BULLETIN, WE ESTABLISHED
FRIENDLY DXPEDITION IS AS OUR MOTTO NO UNFRIENDLY ACTS, PERSISTENCE IN
GETTING THE CALL WE HEARD INTO THE LOG AND IGNORING THE JAMMERS AND OTHER
INTERFERENCE.  ON THE NEXT DAY WE TOOK THE QSL CARD PHOTOS AND CONTINUED
ERECTING ANTENNAS, PUSHUP MASTS FOR THE YAGI AND MORE WIRES.  WE BEGAN CW
OPERATION IN ADDITION TO SSB, WITH TWO STATIONS ON CW AND ONE OR TWO ON SSB
AS CONDITIONS DICTATED.  WE GENERALLY MAINTAINED A STATION ON CW AND SSB
