Gwenael, F4EFI received news from Gildas, TU5KG (FT5XS/MM - FT5XS). He makes a path to Kerguelen Island (AF-048, DIFO FT-011, WLOTA 0439) from March 5th. With a stop at Port aux Francais on March 9th normally, but does not know the precise date because the place is taken by the boat Marion Dufresne. He will be present between March 8th and 10th to watch. [F4EFI] -------------------------------------------- Tim, M0URX, reports that John, 9M6XRO, is planning once again to be in Southern Africa this year. An E-mail by John explains (edited): "I can now confirm my Africa trip dates. I arrive in Johannesburg via Kuala Lumpur and Doha on July 25th, 3 days earlier than planned. I can then help Daniel, ZS6JR, load up and move all the gear to Lesotho (7P) and get the antennas and equipment set-up before the others arrive in Lesotho on the 29th. I hope to put ZS6/GM3OOK on the air for a bit en route possibly from the 25th evening. Daniel has not yet confirmed the date we will drive to Lesotho. Looks like I will also have the option of operating from Swaziland again as 3DA0OK, but the duration and dates will depend on the logistics of the whole operation as everyone is due back in Johannesburg on August 13th. I will keep you updated on that part of the itinerary. My flight back to Borneo leaves on August 14th, once again via Doha. QSL via M0URX."
