[AGCW] Somalia

[Thomas M. Rösner]

Hallo,

wohl auch für diese Liste interessant.
Dann werden wohl in den nächsten Sporadic-E Seasons
bald AFUs auf UKW 88-108 MHz belauschen können...hi

Interessant was alles dort neu für die Funkamateure
zugewiesen wurde...hi

Aber das sieht alles eher nach (Somalia-) Puntland als nach
Somalia-Mogadishu aus aus ...
