Per realizzazione immediata
DXPEDITION TO
SAN FELIX (CHILE)
12-30 Marzo
2002
Una spedizione di radio amateur a
San Felix Island
(Chile) sara' effettuata nel Marzo
2002, usando il callsign XROX.
Circa a 900 km nordovest di
Valparaíso, San Felix e' una isola
roccio di circa 3 km di diametro, con due
piccole isolette adiacenti. L'accesso al
posto e' limitato a causa della presenza
di una guarnigione militare. Poco si sa'
sulla storia di quest'isola anche della
sua possibile importanza nella preistoria.
L'obiettivo principale della spedizione
è quella di permettere contatti
radio con questa isola molto remota e, in
via secondaria recuperare documentazione
sulle specie indigene e sulla evidenza
dele loro antiche presenze.
La spedizione e in via di
organizzazione a cura di Carlos
G-Nascimento NP4IW/CE3AQI, che fu uno dei
principali organizzatori della spedizione
del 1995 Easter Island/Salas y Gomez
(XROX/Y) e nel 1997 di Heard Island
(VKOIR). Il progetto e' congiunto alla
spedizione Cordell (Robert Schmieder,
KK6EK), una organizzazone noprofit che ha
effettuato speditioni in posti remoti da
oltre 20 anni. Tutti i permessi, incluso
lo sbarco, le operazioni radio e la
raccolta di campioni sono stati ottenuti.
I 13-membrI
del team includono i seguenti operatori
radio: NP4IW, K5AB, I8NHJ, N7CQQ, DJ9ZB,
CE0YWS, N6MZ, KO4RR, KK6EK, W6KK, HB9AHL,
K5AND, N6TQS. Il team e un
container di 20ft. di meteriali viaggiera'
da Valparaíso (Chile) a San Felix a
bordo della nave Cilena Chacabuco. Tutto
sara' poi portato sul posto con un
elicottero della marina militare Cilena.
La nave proseguira' poi per Easter Island,
lasciando il team a San Felix. Il ritorno
e' previsto 2 settimane dopo, tramite la
nave che riprendera' il gruppo e i
materiali per tornare a Valparaíso.
La spedizione e' finanziata dai
participanti, supportati dalle donazioni
delle associazioni DX, radio club, e
donazioni individuali. Contributi fatti
alle spedizione Cordell sono valide come
deduzioni fiscali negli USA.

For immediate release
DXPEDITION TO
SAN FELIX (CHILE)
12-30 March
2002
A radio amateur expedition to San Felix Island
(Chile) will be conducted in March
2002, using the callsign XROX.
Lying 900 km northwest of
Valparaíso, San Felix is a barren
rocky island about 3 km across, with two
small islets nearby. Access to the site is
restricted, due to the presence of a
military garrison there. Little is known
of the natural history of the island or of
its possible prehistoric importance.
The major goal of this expedition is
provide radio contact with this remote and
seldom-activated island. Secondary goals
include documenting indigenous species and
searching for evidence of ancient
occupation.
The expedition is being organized and
led by Carlos G-Nascimento NP4IW/CE3AQI,
who was a principal organizer of the 1995
Easter Island/Salas y Gomez (XROX/Y) and
the 1997 Heard Island (VKOIR) expeditions.
The project is being carried out in
conjunction with Cordell Expeditions
(Robert Schmieder, KK6EK), a nonprofit
organization that has carried out
expeditions to remote sites for more than
20 years. All permits, including landing,
radio operation, and specimen collections
have been obtained.
The 13-member
team includes the following radio
amateurs: NP4IW, K5AB, I8NHJ, N7CQQ,
DJ9ZB, CE0YWS, N6MZ, KO4RR, KK6EK, W6KK,
HB9AHL, K5AND, N6TQS. The team
and a 20-ft. container of gear will travel
from Valparaíso (Chile) to San
Felix aboard the Chilean Navy vessel
Chacabuco, and be airlifted on the island
by Chilean Navy helicopter. The vessel
will then proceed on to Easter Island,
leaving the team on San Felix. Returning 2
weeks later, the vessel will retrieve the
crew and gear, and then return to
Valparaíso.
The expedition is being financed by the
participants, supplemented by donations
from DX associations, radio clubs, and
individuals. Contributions made to the
expedition through Cordell Expeditions are
eligible for deduction as a donation to a
501( c )( 3 ) organization.

BAHAMAS DX TRIP -
C6AIE
|
|
John, WZ8D, scrive:
Arrivero' a Abaco FL16ip nelle Bahamas
il 1^ gennaio 2002 e restero' li' fino al
giorno 10.
L'obiettivo principale del viaggio e'
effettuare il maggior numero di
collegamenti F2 sui 6 metri.
Faro' anche un grosso sforzo per
effettuare il maggior numero di qso sui 2m
in WSJT.
Tutte le attivita' in 2 2 metri avverrano
in serata.
Durante il giornoi saro' in 6 metri per
l'F2. Occhio per me sui 2m su 144.140 per
contatti WSJT randoms. Trasmettero' i
primi 15 secondi di ogni minuto.
Sono anche disponibile per un limitato
numero di sked in 2m solo WSJT.
Tutti gli skeds avverranno su 144.116.
Scrivetemi l'ora serale che per voi e' la
migliore ed io faro' del mio meglio per
collegarvi. Scusate ma faro solo contatti
in WSJT. Altri sistemi richiedono molto
tempo ed io non ne ho molto. Se non avete
ancora provato il WSJT questo e' il
momento di farlo. Ho incluso alcuni link
dove potrete ottenre informazioni su
questo programma.
Passero un po' di tempo anche in cw ed in
ssb dai 10 ai 40 metri se i 6m non fossero
aperti.
Fate attenzione per me a 28.885 per info
quando saaro' alle Bahamas. Non saro'
attivo in internet quando saro' li'.
Spero di dare a molti di voi un nuovo
country in 6 e 2m.
Thanks

I will arrive on Abaco FL16ip in the
Bahamas on January 1 and stay until
January 10 ,2002.
The main focus of this trip will be to
work as many F2 contacts possible on 6
meters.
I also will put a lot of effort in making
WSJT contacts on 2 meters.
All of the 2 meter activity will be in the
evenings.
Day time will be for 6 meter F2. Look for
me on 2 meter on 144.140 for WSJT contacts
on randoms.
I will take the first 30 seconds of each
minute.
I will also be open for a limited number
of Skeds on 2. WSJT only.
All skeds will be on 144.116. Email me the
time that works best for you in the
evening and I will do my best to work it
out. Sorry only WSJT contacts. Other modes
take to long and my time will be limited.
So if you have not got on WSJT yet now is
the time to do it. I have include a few
links where you can get information about
it. I will also spend time on CW and some
SSb on 10 through 40 meters if six meters
does not open.
Look for me on 28.885 for info while I am
in the Bahamas. I will not have the
Internet while there.
I hope to give many of you a new country
on 6 and 2 meters.
Thanks
