VK2KU and VK2TK - Portable Expeditions

From time to time Guy VK2KU and John VK2TK venture forth in John's Landcruiser to activate various rare and not-so-rare gridsquares on 144MHz, 432MHz and 1296MHz.
The accounts of these adventures were originally posted on the VK-VHF Reflector, and have sometimes been reproduced in other unexpected places.
