CONFIRMED GROUP DX CE2AA TRAVELS TO JUAN FERNANDEZ ARCHIPELAGO, CE0Z Our radio club will carry out on Thursday, 24 May, a trip to Juan Fernandez Archipelago (SA-005), with the purpose of installing a radio station that will be able to communicate from the island to the mainland. It is not the first nor last time, that CE2AA embarks on a mission of this kind in this section place of our beloved and loved Chile. Team members include: Claudio CE2NGN (team leader), Alex CE2OKY, Ricardo CE0YJI, Ed CE2SJT and Francisco CA2REM. QRV on 80-15 metre, CW and SSB. CW - 3.550, 7.035, 14.040 and 21.040 MHz. SSB - 3.700, 7.075, 14.150 and 21.250 MHz. They will also untilize any local VHF/UHF repeaters. On Monday 28 of May they will try to connect the island in the maneuvers of tsunami. Information of: Encargado grupo DX CE2AA (ce2aa.cl/) VIA: Comision Dx y Concursos FEDERACHI ------------------------------ CUBA'S RADIO HAMS GET NEW DIGITAL MODES With great pleasure I inform to the world community of amateur radio that after a national debate and then follow the legal avenues has been approved by the department authorized by the government the use of new digital modes for all Cuban hams. The last legislation only allowed us to work in PSK31, QPSK31, AMTOR, PACKET and RTTY. We can now work in Domino Contestia, Olivia, MFSK, JT65, almost all variants of PSK (BPSK, QPSK, PSK-R) among others. And more importantly, it has set up a mechanism to apply for new digimodes by any hams, I have asked already some who were not authorized, including WSPR, JT6M, HSMM, PACTOR II and III, FSK441, among others. Another important step is that they have authorized access to the FRC's internal network using packet radio nodes, and have authorized the use of packet gateways in cross bands (HF/VHF, etc.) Cuban radio amateurs are pleased with this approval that puts us on a par with colleagues anywhere in the world. 73 from CO7WT CU on HF on Digimodes !!! [Southgate ARC] ------------------------------ K6VVA/KL7 IOTA NA-240 ACTIVATION SUSPENDED Complete details at: www.k6vva.com/iota/na240 Tnx & 73, Rick-K6VVA ------------------------------ PRESS RELEASE: Helsinki, May,21.2012 >From the Desk of Radio Arcala RADIO ARCALA MOVES ACROSS THREE CONTINENTS IN WPX
In the summer months of the Far North, the midnight sun never sets and no QSOs are possible on the point rich lower bands. Additionally, 10M rarely opens in the North, so the only choice left to Radio Arcala and their associates is to tactically move South to satisfy their competitive urge. The troops are still spearheaded by their battle ship, OH8X and the specific target is to reach North America with the massive hardware of Arcala fame, boldly challenging the forces of Mother Nature.
Northern Europe: OH8X will be operated by Toni Linden, OH2UA OH10X by Kim Ostman, OH6KZP OH0X, Aland Islands by Pekka Holstila, OH2TA
Asiatic Turkey: TC2X will be operated by Pertti Simovaara, OH2PM
South America: PW0F will be operated by Ville Hiilesmaa, OH2MM/PY2ZEA PW0F, Fernando de Noronha operation will be conducted jointly with the Araucaria DX Group of Brazil
QSL info: OH8X via OH2UA OH0X via OH2TA others via OH2BH ------------------------------ OFFICIAL LAUNCH OF THE GRAGGY ISLAND DXPEDITION GROUP The Galway VHF Group will be officially launching of the Craggy Island DXpedition Group using the new callsign EI0TED. The launch will take place this weekend, on Sunday the 27th of May, at the Craggy Island Parochial House which is actually located in the Burren, County Clare. A H.F. Station will be in operation between 11:00 am and 3pm on 80, 40 and possibly 20 metres. Afternoon Tea and buns have been booked for the operators and guests courtesy of "Mrs. Doyle". Please find time to QSY to 3680 KHz after the IRTS news at Mid-day where we will take calls before QSYing to 40 metres for the rest of the afternoon. A special QSL card will be produced to mark this occasion. Later this year there will be a number of operations from Offshore Islands round the coast of Ireland. EI3IS is an experienced kayaker and hopes to activate some of the more inaccessible islands with no landing facillities and due to the mode of transport many of these operations will be QRP. This should not present a major problem if the band conditions are reasonable. Check out the News section of www.galwayvhfgroup.com/ where up to date announcements of our operations may be found. Current EI0TED / EJ0TED operations may also be found on QRZ.com. From the Southgate News. *******************************************
73 and Good DX! Dave Raycroft, VA3RJ
