3Y0X Moonbounce Update

K5AND, Dick ci informa:

E' il VIA!

24 Ottobre 2005

La preparazione per le attivita' Moonbounce da Peter 1 procedono secondo il piano. Con la generosa offerta di attrezzature da molti operatori della comunita' VHF/UHF e alcune fabbriche (Icom, M-squared, Alpha) le stazioni per i 6m e i 2m sono state preparate e sono in via di test "sulla luna". QSO si sono effettuati con successo usando le due stazione cosi' preparate.

La stazione 6m usera' una yagi 7 elementi M-squared long-boom e un'Alpha 6, con un premplifacatore della Mirage. Esso avra' un uso limitato belle capacità di elevazione e sara' usata in via principale al sorgere ed al tramonto della luna. La radio e' un IC756 Pro III. La stazione e' imballata e viaggiera' nel container.

La stazione per i 2m station usera' 4 x 9-element M-squared yagis con 300W forniti da un amplificatore solid stata della TE System. L'amplificatore sara' montato sotto la base dell'antenna per minimizzare la perdita della linea di discesa. La radio e' un IC910. La stazione partira' da Boulder questa settimana e l'attrezzatura per i 6m sara' bel container questo weekend.

La stazione per i 70cm sara' assemblata e messa in aria il prossimo mese. Non sara' pronta per essere imbarcata nel container, cosi' essa potra' essere sottoposta a ulteriori verifiche da nostro esperto di Moonbounce W0RUN.

Noi opereremo in JT65 e in CW. Lo schedule sara' ridefinito nei prossimi mesi, ma la visibilita' della luna sembra non permetta, secondo i piani attuali, qso EME se non dopo una settimana di operazioni le HF siccome non avremo la luna per la prima setimana ci sara' piu' tempo per Lance, W7GJ (il nostro pilota EME) per focalizzare e coordinare meglio gli sked durante la nostra premanenza sui ghiacci.

Molte grazie a coloro che hanno assemblato le attrezzature, aiutato nella preparazione e partecipato ai test "on-air". Noi proveremo a collegare chiunque sara' possible mettere nel log EME di 3Y0X.

Aiuti economici sono ben venuti ... questa sara' la spedizione piu' costosa degli ultimi anni e il vostro syupporto è necessario.

Per favore date un'occhiata al nostro sito www.peterone.com e cliccate sul bottone dei "contributi". Voi potete specificare che il vostro contributo e' diretto all'attivita' EME!

It's A GO!

October 24, 2005

Preparations for Moonbounce activity from Peter 1 are proceeding according to plan. With generous loans of equipment from many in the VHF/UHF community and from several manufacturers (Icom, M-squared, Alpha) the 6m and 2m stations have been assembled and given a quick "on moon" checkout. Successful QSOs were made using the two stations assembled so far.

The 6m station will use a 7 element M-squared long-boom yagi and an Alpha 6, with a Mirage preamp. It will have limited elevation capability, and will be used primarily around moonrise/moonset. The radio is an IC756 Pro III. This station is packed and in the shipping container.

The 2m station will use four 9-element M-squared yagis and 300W from a TE System solid state amplifier. The amplifier will be mounted remotely at the base of the antenna to minimize feedline loss. The radio is an IC910. This station is leaving Boulder this week, and will join the 6m station in the container this weekend.

The 70cm station will be assembled and put on the air over the next month. It will not be ready in time to go into the container, so it will be kept up a bit longer to undergo a more thorough checkout, and to allow W0RUN, our chief Moonbounce op to hone his EME skills.

We will be operating using JT65 and CW modes. Schedules will be refined over the next months, but the moon visibility means that, under current plans, the EME stations will only be QRV about a week after the HF ones, as we have no moon for the first week or so. Lance, W7GJ is the EME pilot station and will be focal point for coordinating schedules etc. once we are on the ice.

Many thanks are due to the people who loaned the gear, helped assemble the stations, and participated in the on-air testing. We look forward to getting everyone in the 3Y0X EME log.

Contributions are most welcome….this may be the most expensive DXpedition ever and your support is needed. Please go to www.peterone.com and click on one of the "contribute" buttons. You may specify that your contribution will go to the EME operations!
