ET3VSC/bcn

ET3VSC, Claudio, scrive a IW0BSQ (Claudio)

Caro Claudio,
scelgo te come cavia per mandare un primo messaggio via Mailbox agli amici seimetristi italiani.
Ti informo che il beacon ET3VSC su 50.034 e' sempre in funzione (a meno che non mi vedi segnalato sul packet-cluster su altra frequenza).
Il testo, che forse avrai gia' sentito, e':

VVV ET3VSC/BEACON KJ99IA PWR 10W/VERT VVV AR

Visto pero' che molte volte sono in stazione a fare altro mentre il beacon trasmette, ho deciso di mandare un messaggio differente quando sono disponibile per un QSO:

VVV ET3VSC/B KJ99IA 10W/V NW QRV FR QSO 50115 AR

Percio', se si sente il primo messaggio vuol dire che non ci sono, se invece si sente il secondo significa che sono in ascolto su 50.115.
Cosi' se qualcuno sente il beacon e mi vuole chiamare lo puo' fare tranquillamente.
Ti pregherei di informare con il mezzo piu' opportuno gli amici seimetristi.
Per eventuali comunicazioni sono raggiungibile al seguente indirizzo:

ET3VSC@WINLINK.ORG

I messaggi devono pero' essere lunghi al massimo mezza pagina perche' io poi li scarico da ZS5S via radio (Pactor2).

Ti ringrazio per la cortesia e .... a presto in aria.

73, Claudio, ET3VSC

NEWS VIA: IW0BSQ, Claudio

Claudio IW0BSQ just send this message from ET3VSC :

Dear Claudio,
please inform all Italian Sixmeters enthusiasts that the Beacon ET3VSC on 50.034 is always on (except when I am spotted on some Packet Cluster in other QRG).

The beacon says:

VVV ET3VSC/BEACON KJ99IA PWR 10W/VERT VVV AR

Sometimes I am in the shack makink other things, so I decided to send a different message and that means that I am ready for a qso.

VVV ET3VSC/B KJ99IA 10W/V NW QRV FR QSO 50115 AR

So if the first message is eared means that I'm not in the shack.
If the second message can be eared means that I'm qrv on 50115. and anybody can call me for qso.

Please make pubblic this message as much in possible.

My e-mail is: ET3VSC@WINLINK.ORG

Please do not send e-mail largest than 1/2 page, because I make the forward by radio via ZS5S (Pactor2)

Many thnaks for your kindness.
