["]At 0000 UTC on March 23 (the evening of Tuesday, March 22, in US time zones), Tom Medlin, W5KUB, host of the weekly "Amateur Radio Roundtable" video webcast and radio program, hopes to make ham radio media history by interviewing the DXpedition team live on his webcast. Audio will be simulcast on international shortwave broadcaster WBCQ on 5130 kHz.

Heard Island is an Australian protectorate, part of a subantarctic island group(Heard Island and McDonald Islands) in the southwest Indian Ocean, some 4000 kilometers (approximately 2480 miles) southwest of Western Australia and 1000 kilometers (approximately 620 miles) north of Antarctica.

I will certainly be listening to WBCQ tonight and, hopefully, recording the show for the SRAA.For updates about the Heard Island DXpedition, check out their website (and admire Jeff Murray's excellent official DXpedition artwork while you're at it!).
