Datum: 2/18/2007 Od: "Hal ZS6WB" Předmět: 3DA0 144 MHz EME Operation 22-24 February The EME FOR AFRICA Project will be conducting a 144 MHz EME operation from Swaziland planned to start about 1300 utc on 22 February and ending at moonset on the 24th. Operation on the 23rd will be from moonrise 1000 to moonset 2040 and on the 24th from 1100 to 2120. I will call CQ on 144.112 JT65B first period and will look for stations calling between 144.112 and 144.114. Internet will probably not be available so expect all operation to be random, however I will try to arrange for frequency changes to be posted to the N0UK JT65 EME Link and DL8EBW MMM on VHF: http://www.dl8ebw.de/ACTUAL/actual.html. The goal is to contact as many stations as possible during this trip so please make only one QSO on 22 or 23 Feb, but there is no objection to your making a second QSO on 24 Feb during the EME contest. On this trip I will use 300 watts and the 2 x 2M9SSB antenna array used last year by Hannes during his 7Q and 9J operation. There will be a second operation from Swaziland on 16-17-18 March by ZS6BUN and myself using a 4 x 2M9SSB array and hopefully the larger antenna system will allow us to contact more of the smaller stations at that time. There will be additional information on this trip and future plans on other possible operations this year in early March.
