03/10/2009: GB70GB is a very special Special Event callsign, issued by
Ofcom for the 70th anniversary of the opening of the Research Centre at
Great Baddow, Chelmsford, Essex, England (EU-005, WLOTA L1841). This is
the home to what was originally Marconi's Research Laboratories. Later,
it was also home to famous staff including Spycatcher author Peter
Wright and Chris Cockrell, inventor of the hovercraft. The station will
be operating on Saturday 3rd October and will be operated by members of
the Chelmsford Amateur Radio Society. Baddow is also home to the last
surviving fully intact 360ft Chain Home radar mast from the Battle of
Britain - itself coming up to its own anniversary in February 2010, the
75th anniversary of the Daventry Experiment when radar was born.
Visitors must pre-register to visit the special event station and they
will see a series of exhibits on Baddow's history and technology from
turn of the century Marconi heritage right up to present day innovations
at what is now known as BAE Systems Advanced Technology Centre. QSL c/o
Murray Niman, G6JYB. Full details can be found at QRZ.com. [GB2RS]

QSL INFORMATION -
Pirates & FT5GA:
The following has been released by Carl, N4AA of QRZ DX / DX Magazine
and is displayed in its entirety:
Hello DXers: This is a SPECIAL BULLETIN and the following will reveal
why:
I have been contacted by a person (who I will NOT name) who has the
capability to pin point (very accurately) the source of an on the air
signal. What I am saying is - this person has the professional equipment
and the expertise to monitor a signal on the ham bands and determine to
a very narrow area where that signal is coming from.
Apparently there was a pirate on 10114 last night signing FT5GA. That
signal was NOT coming from Glorioso, it was coming from QUEBEC in
CANADA, NNE of Montreal. On two other days, pirate signals were
monitored signing FT5GA, one was coming from LATVIA and the other from
the SOUTH COAST OF SICILY.
These pirates should be relatively easy for "local" DXers to find.
They need to be specifically identified and pressure brought to bear on
them to cease their deliberate and illegal activities.
The "source" that I mentioned above will continue to provide periodic
reports like this and I will continue to publish the locations of these
irresponsible persons. I ask for those within the areas identified pay
particular attention and use whatever means are available to them to put
a stop to these activities.
Your cooperation with the identification of these pirates will be
appreciated by all of us.

The plan is ambitious and we keep our finger crossed. Likewise already
experienced during Mehdi’s 2009 Expedition, the opportunity to work
several new spots in Antarctica is guarantee. Keep up the good job Mehdi
and TNX. [Worldwide Antarctic Program]

CANADA HAMS - 3 years till current mobile use outlawed:
Mobile ham radios will be required to operate hands free in the
Ontario province of Canada, they have less that 3 years to comply.
"To help these businesses stay competitive, Ontario is granting a
three-year phase-out period for the commercial use of two-way radios,
including mobile and CB radios, to allow for hands-free technologies to
be developed."
"The use of hand-held radios by amateur radio operators (who provide
assistance, especially in emergency situations such as severe storms and
blackouts) will be phased out within three years, to allow hands-free
technologies to be developed."

Instead of yesterday fears, the crew is safe on Conway Reef. This
morning Oct 1st it had been received on 14, 18and 7 MHz, both in SSB/CW
with good sigs in East Asia and US West coast.
QSL manager DJ8NK direct, bureau (new IRC's are OK, old IRC's with
expiration date 31.Dec.2009 are not OK, because QSL cards most likely
will be send out in January 2010). For more info and updates see their
web page at: www.conwayreef2009.de/index.html
