Default Amateur Radio Operators in the South Pacific

Jim, VK9NS is quite active ... and a nice fella ... but
don't know if he has a GPS. Would you be willing to
send him one if he does not have one?

Jim is on Norfolk Island ...

A question for those in contact with radio amateurs in the south
pacific islands.

Does anyone have any contact with radio amatuers in the south pacific
islands who might have a GPS unit & who might be able to take some
latitude/longitude (& maybe height ASL) readings for me on some FM
broadcast band transmitter tower sites in any of the below listed
nations. This info seams to be largely unavailable in the smaller
islands.

Countries that I am interested in a

Tonga
Vanuatu
Solomon Islands
Western Samoa
Niue
Nauru
Wallis & Futuna Island
New Caledonia
French Polynesia
Norfolk Island
Parts of PNG

The GPS info would be used to establish exact distance & azimuth stats
& info for dxers from their QTH.

Anyhelp would be VERY highly appreciated.

Contact Ian at this e-mail address ONLY below:
