Major shower this month is Orionids, peaking October 21st. This shower has produced strong rates in 2006, 2007 and 2008, with lot of bright meteors. A 12-years periodicity in Orionids stronger returns, extrapolated from old observations, suggests that relatively good Orionids rates are expected even in 2010. Some other minor showers, combined with good sporadic meteor rates, will provide favorable conditions for MS DX-ing.

RAC Bulletin 2010-019E - President’s Bulletin from El Salvador 2010-10-03
As Vice-President International Affairs Lamoureux, VE2KA has pointed out the two of us are in El Salvador.
What are the key issues that would bring us here? Every three years the Assembly that governs Region 2 of the International Amateur Radio Union [IARU] [encompassing all of the Americas] meets to strategize on key issues effecting amateur radio. Of particular interest to Canadians is that we are profiling the recent non amateur use of amateur frequencies in the recent ProTour Bicycle Race in Quebec as an unwarranted intrusion into amateur frequencies. Canadians will also be interested in HF band planning in 40M [now that short wave commercial stations have left the band] strategies to enhance effective response to hurricanes and other emergencies that require amateur radio support. Vantroi Pena HI8VP of the Republica Dominica will add a very human touch to that discussion as he was one of the Republica Dominica amateurs that set up 2M repeaters at the Haitian/Dominica Border and crossed into Haiti to provide assistance during that calamitous earthquake. Galdino Besomi, CE3PG, and Dagoberto Arcos Rojas, CE5COX will share their experiences during the Chilean earthquake.
Vice-President Lamoureux, VE2KA, is also a Director of IARU Region 2 and his expenses are being paid by IARU. Mr. Bawden, VE4BAW is in El Salvador at no expense to the Radio Amateurs of Canada.
Geoff Bawden VE4BAW President and Chair, RAC -------------------------------- LZ Open 80m Sprint contest will take place on 16-th of October (saturday) from 02.00 to 06.00 UTC (only 4 hours total contest time). We have added 3 new categories: Straight Key Entrants, Field Operation Stations and Solar Energy Powered Stations. We invite CW operators from all over the world to take part in this event and to join us in our efforts to make this contest more dynamic. We need 300 participants ! Please see the rules at: www.lzopen.com/ [LZ1GL Krasimir Latinov] -------------------------------- Mark, 4Z4KX (IARC Contest Manager) reports that the 2010 Holyland Contest results are now published at: www.iarc.org/iarc/en/Main_Page -------------------------------- DXpedition to Jarvis Island postponed
Radio Expeditions, Inc. was selected by the IS-FWS to conduct an amateur radio DXpedition to Jarvis Island, KH5 in the Pacific.
The Team has announced that "Due to the time required to establish the rules for amateur radio operation in the Refuge, the last selection date, and the lead time required to schedule and prepare the MV Braveheart, the expedition has been postponed one year until 2011 November.
November remains the best month to visit Jarvis Island from a propagation standpoint, with the largest combination of openings predicted to Europe on both 160/80 and 12/10 meter bands." [Southgate ARC] *******************************************
73 and Good DX! Dave Raycroft, VA3RJ
