VP2M - Monserrat

Dick, K5AND, scrive:

K5AND, W5OZI e W5LXG saranno attivi da Montserrat dal 31 Ottobre all'8 Novembre.

Ci occuperemo particolarmente dei 50 mhz utilizzando un FT-897, antenna 7el, e 800 watts. Buona posizione per l'EU, AF e US. Beacon CW su 155. Se ci sara' propagazione noi opereremo in split ascoltando 5 khz sopra ma dubito che cio' sara' necessario. Il nominativo piu' usato sara' l'amato VP2MJD.

Avremo 100 watts anche sui 20-10 m tuttavia faremo un annuncio piu' preciso circa le frequeze etc successivamente.

Avremo anche un accesso internet ed una email, ma per ora non abbiamo altri particolari.

Per favore pregate una volta ancora per un buon flusso solare!

We will be focusing on 50 mhz, of course, and will have an FT-897, 7el ant, and 800 watts out. Great location for EU, AF and US. CW beacon on 155. If there is propagation, we will operate split, listening up 5.....but I doubt that will be necessary. The call to be used will most likely be VP2MJD.

We will have 100 watts on 20-10 as well, but will make a later announcement about freqs etc.

We will have e-mail and internet capability, but don't know the particulars yet.

DX Spot in 50 Mhz for jt44, fsk, audio, video etc... my idea....

IK0FTA, Sergio, scrive:

Salve a tutti, senza voler entrare in polemica sull'utilizzo, piu' o meno corretto, degli spot nel DXcluster per sollecitare qso in alcuni modi operativi o per segnalare la presenza in banda di portanti audio o video mi permetto di formulare una proposta che consentirebbe di non immettere nella rete dxc/clx informazioni fuorvianti soprattutto per chi utilizza allarmi sonori nel proprio software (es. usando FSK31 scatta l'allarme per S.Martin, JT per la Mongolia etc).

La proposta e' semplice: basta immetere, nella voce "call" dello spot dx (erroneamente usato per immettere un modo operativo) la lettera Q dinazi al modo stesso.

Alla stessa maniera ritengo che per segnalare portanti video o audio si potrebbe usare -sempre- una frequenza "fittizzia" di riferimento come 50000 o 51000.

Ecco alcuni esempi di immissione:

dx 50250 qjt44 cq nord

darebbe come risultato (senza far scattare allarmi visto che non ci sono paesi cui e' stata attribuito il prefisso Q):

DX de IK0FTA: 50250 QJT44 cq nord

oppure

dx 50000 qvideo qtf 120

darebbe come risultato:

DX de IK0FTA: 50000 QVIDEO qtf 120

Graditi commenti e suggerimenti.

IK0FTA, Sergio, wrote:

Hi to all, I don't want to began a polemic discussion about the use, right or not, on DXcluster spots on JT44, FSK441 or about the presence of Audio or Video. I'd like to give my idea that would give the oportunity to put on the DXcluster/Clx wrong info for the users of some cluster software using DXCC alarms (for ex. FSK441 alarms like FS S.Martin, JT44 for JT Mongolia).

My idea is simply: we have only to put a letter "Q" before the call of the dx spot.

At the same time I say that to inform you about VIDEO or AUDIO Carriers we could always use the reference freq. of 50000.

For example:

dx 50250 qjt44 cq nord

the results will be this (without any alarm on our software cause Q prefix isn't in use)

DX de IK0FTA: 50250 QJT44 cq nord

and also:

dx 50000 qvideo qtf 120

DX de IK0FTA: 50000 QVIDEO qtf 120

If you like my idea pse spread out .. Any suggestion or comment will be welcome.
