>From Rafik, F5CQ Gloriosos 2009, FT5GA webmaster.
The last upload of the log has been done. last QSO recorded on Sept 23rd at 15:25 utc. among 18475 QSO's and 7236 callsigns once recorded only..
Check your contacts at: http://www.clublog.org/charts/?c=FT5GA
73's Rafik webmaster: http://glorieuses2008.free.fr/index-e.htm (don't forget to write your comments on our guest book) -------- Last news from FT5GA 24 September 2009
The FT5GA crew continues do try satisfiing the international Ham radio community.
The propagation is very changeable, in these equinox and higher sunspots times. Two rigs felt down some days ago. Now one is again in order but the second have to be repaired when coming back home, because of new parts missing on Gloriosos.
By the way, three stations are on the air as often as possible.
On next week end, the all crew will enter the CQ WW DX RTTY contest, in Multi/single class. The two other stations CW/SSB will be also on the air.
We have now 14 days of traffic to do. We hope more quiet pile ups for these two weeks.
The logs are received at F5CQ's every evening and uploaded in the row at: http://www.clublog.org/charts/?c=FT5GA
The operators have confirmed us once again the lost of time with unruly operators. Some other seem death for they have to repeat very often their callsigns to get confirmation of the QSO. Listen the operators sen.ding information or instructions!
About the QSOs/QSL, Didier, F5OGL, team leader and Rafik/F5CQ webmaster are receiving complaints about wrong callsigns or more. As it was said in a previous message, no answer will be give to these messages. If there are problems, they will be solved when the future QSL'ing operation after FT5GA return.
We say once again that the cuts, which are systematically denounced on the clusters, are service imperatives, for maintenance. During these times, no AC nor DC is available, and at these moments the operators are doing service job, especially doing the generator maintenance.
These mandatory cuts are used also by the crew, during their very short spartime to study the Traffic instructions wrote upon pilots observations It's essential to make the most of you satisfie.
73 Didier, F5OGL, FT5GA team leader and QSL manager.
>From Maurice, F5NQL: Yesterday about the pirates who make QSO's on the FT5GA frequencies, even with the same callsign, a typo was made. You had to read: "so we cannot consider their QSO's indeed.", and not "we can". Apologises! 73 Informations via Maurice, F5NQL, Communications Internet par mail for FT5GA.
