D3SAF News... Warriors problems

Alcuni giorni fa ho avuto un qso con Gabriele D3SAF in HF e gli ho chiesto se era attivo in 6 metri.
Mi ha risposto che l'antenna inviatagli da I3LLH era arrivata e contava di montarla entro qualche giorno, ma sabato 29/01 e' stato attaccato da alcuni guerriglieri che lo hanno derubato del TRX per i 50 MHz.
Sta in questo momento attendendo il nuovo Trx, e conta di essere attivo tra 25 giorni anche in 6 metri, giusto il tempo di ricevere il nuovo apparato e di montare l'antenna.

Chiunque volesse contribuire per la spesa del nuovo apparato contatti Enrico I3LLH.

73 de Amanzino, IK0BAL

In an HF qso ,made some days ago, I asked to D3SAF if he was active on 6.
He said that the 5 el. beam sended to him by I3LLH (his manager), is arrived, but he has had some problems in these days.
Saturday the 29th a group of warriors (I remember you that in D2 there is a war in act) had stolen him his new transceiver for six meters and at now he has only the antenna. Now he is waiting for a new radio from Italy and he hopes to be active on six within 25 days, the time to install the antenna and receive the new transceiver.

Anyone which want to send a contribute for the new radio equipment please send it to Enrico I3LLH.

Mi dice che non c'e' nulla da preoccuparsi per le QSL, e che sta' terminando di mettere tutto i QSOs nel programma VQlog e che in meno di 2 mesi tutte le QSLs saranno spedite.

EH7KW, Jose, write:

He tells me that there is not anything to worry for the QSL, and that be finishing of put all the QSOs in the VQlog program and that in minus of 2 months all the QSLs will be expeditious.

PROPAGATION IN VK2

SM7AED, Arne send this mail recived from VK2QF, Nev

Caro Arne,

In VK si e' verificato una propagazione attraverso il Pacifico senza precedenti con qrb di 14,000km ora teminata ma attiva per 3 mesi che ha permsso anche due new VK firsts [YN & HR] lavorati da me!

Io resto ottimista che il ciclo 23 sara' grande perche' ci sono tutti gli indicatori come nello stesso periodo del 1989 benche', attuamente, esso sia al disotto delle aspettative. Il ciclo solare e' forse un po' piu' basso come mostra la previsione della IPS Australia IPS che fornisce un indice "T" con picco nell'ottobre 2000 di 148 confrontato con i 162 del 1989.

Ma anche le stazioni hanno migliorato le loro condizioni operative!

Ho intenzione di recarmi a C21 con una yagi di 1 lambda & 1kw, ma se Ottobre\Novembre e' il periodo migliore per l'Europa esso e' molto incerto per i risultati con l'area del Pacifico ove e' meglio marzo.

73 & hear u sn on 6m.

Nev. VK2QF.

SM7AED, Arne send this mail recived from VK2QF, Nev

Dear Arne,

Well in VK there has been uprecedented trans pacific 14,000km paths now off and on for 3 months, including two new VK firsts [YN & HR] worked by myself!

I remain optomistic that 23 will be big as all indications here for the same time in 1989 are up well above this time. The whole solar outcome maybe a little lower with Australias' IPS showing the "T" indices to peak in Oct 2000 at 148 compared to 162 in 1989.

Stations have improved greatly too.

I still intend to go to C21 with a 1wl yagi & 1kw pa 2001, but the October\Nov is best for EU but more uncertain for results than a March in the Pacific.

73 & hear u sn on 6m.

Nev. VK2QF.
