STUDENT JOINS SOUTH GEORGIA ISLAND DXPEDITION TEAM

Even before they set foot on South Georgia island, the VPØSG DXpedition team has already fulfilled one of its objectives. They have added Megan EI5LA, a 19-year-old engineering student from University College Cork, as the third and final young operator.

Megan joins Violetta KN2P and Leon DL3ON for next year's trip. There are now 16 operators from North America and Europe who hope to get on the air from this coveted DX next year.

Megan, who has been a ham since 2021, is involved in the EI7M contest team and has a particular focus on high-level multi-operator events and CW contesting. She is active in Youngsters on the Air in Region 1.

The team announced her addition, reaffirming its commitment to helping mentor the next generation of operators and encourage a robust future for DXpeditions.
