Il team andra' via da Parigi il 01/09 at 16:15 utc (18:15 loc) il 02/09 arriveranno a Bangkok, 06:05 utc (13:05 loc) del 03/09 partenza per Paro (se le condizioni del mare saranno buone), alle 00:50 utc (07:50 loc) con arrivo alle 05:00 utc (11:00 loc).
Da qui alle 1h30 si muoveranno per Thimphu dove sperano di essere per le 06:30 utc. L'ora locale di Thimphu e' UTC + 6h.

FH/TU5AX , l'operatore 50 Mhz, non sara' in questo viaggio per problemi di lavoro. A seguito di cio' il gruppo non e' certo di attivare anche i 6m .Non e' il massimo... tuttavia... Scusate!

Then, 1h30 to go to Thimphu where they hope to arrive at 06:30 utc Thimphu local time is UTC + 6h.

FH/TU5AX , the 50 Mhz operator, will not be on this trip because of professional QRL. So, the team is not too sure to active the 6 meters . They will do the maximum, but ....Sorry !

SAINT PETER & SAINT PAUL ROCKS - PS0S

Salve DXers,

Dopo vari medi e dopo molti riinvii finalmente la Spedizione da Saint Peter & Saint Paul Rocks e' aggiornata per questo mese.

SAINT PETER & SAINT PAUL ROCKS DXPEDITON 2000
ITU 13 - CQ 11
WW LOC HJ50HW
IOTA SA-014
DIB 03
DFB OC-01
CALL SIGN: PS0S (Papa Sierra Zero Sierra)

DATE: Approssimativamente dal 25 al 30 Agosto La nave partira' dal porto di Natal (PS7) il 22 Agosto.

BANDE: Dai 6 agli 80 metri.

MODI: CW, SSB, RTTY.

OPERATORI: Al Archangelo, PY2ZX e Ademir Moreira, PY2SP.

QSL Manager: Via PY2SP (Ademir Moreira, Rua Abaitara 108, Sao Paulo/SP 03714-060 Brasil).

CONDIZIONI OPERATIVE: FT890 e IC-706 con R-7 e antenna verticale per i 6 m. Alcuni dipoli. Per molto tempo solo una stazione potra' essere attiva. Operazioni in RTTY operations saranno effettuate da operatori non esperti per cui PSE abbiate pazienza durante i pile up in RTTY. Sfortunatamente non siamo organizzati per operare sulla top band questa volta. Le Rocche hanno uno spazio veramente ristretto per le antenne e la stazione. In future operazioni speriamo di attivare questa banda in modo ragionevole.

Attivita' marittimo mobile, portatile /PY0F e /PY0R sono insicure.

I nostri ringraziamenti in anticipo agli sponsor come Araucaria DX Group, Natal DX Group, CWSP Group, LABRE/SP, QTC Magazine, Brasilian Navy Force e molti altri amici che hanno reso possibile questa spedizione.

Grazie a Mr. Karl Mesquita Leite (PS7KM) che non sara' con noi sulle Rocche a causa di ragioni familiari ma che ci ha aiutato al fine del successo delle operazioni.

Ulteriori notizie nei prossimi giorni via e-mails e sul nostro sito in costruzione.

PSE diffondete questa notizia ai vosti amici e ai vostri bollettini preferiti, club, associazioni etc.

Siamo diponibili a ricevere qualsiasi suggerimento e contributo per la miglior riuscita delle nostre operazioni in una delle piu' difficili aree per una DXpeditions in un territorio oceanico del brasile.

Speriamo di ascoltarvi presto dal bel mezzo dell'Atlantico... ! Staytune !

Hello DXers,

OPERATORS: Al Archangelo, PY2ZX and Ademir Moreira, PY2SP.

CONDITIONS OF OPERATION: FT890 and IC-706 with R-7 and 6 meter vertical. Several dipoles. Most of the time only one station can be active. RTTY operations will be placed with not expertized operator, so PSE be patience in the RTTY pile up. Unfortunately we are not prepared for operate in top band at this time, so closely of the operation day. The Rocks have one very limited and critical geographical area avaiable for antennas and all station. But in future operations we belive this band will be schedule to be active with suitable conditions.

Maritime Mobile, portable /PY0F and /PY0R operations are uncertanly.

Our previous thanks for sponsors like Araucaria DX Group, Natal DX Group, CWSP Group, LABRE/SP, QTC Magazine, Brasilian Navy Force and several friends that making this expedition possible.
