If I can work Costa Rica with my dipole maybe I stand a chance to work Cocos Island. I hope I hope. What bands so they plan to operate and how long will they be there?

Cocos Island is near enough that you should be able to work them, but a directional antenna and or amplifier is always nice. I am without a good directional antenna these days, but if the rain will hold off for a while I may be able to fix that.
