> reports that all of the equipment went through custom clearance OK (thanks
> to Greg Pearson, H44GR!) and is stored safely in Honiara. Unfortunately,

> to manage 125 kg of equipment. Nick states, "Obviously, something will
> need to stay in H44 therefore only the most important stuff will be taken
> to H40. This includes an FT920, MLA2500 amplifier, tribander, antenna mast
> and lowband vertical. No WARC antenna; RTTY is also under question.
> Also, I would need to cut the coax (heavy RG8), therefore, I can only
> have one antenna at the time - either vertical or tribander. There will
> be no activity from Honiara BEFORE departure to Temotu, only later,
> April 7-9th." His callsign will be H44TL for Honiara, and for Temotu the

> VK0MQI, will be working as a member of the 2002 Australian National
> Antarctic Research Expedition to Macquarie Island. Peter is 43 years
> old and has worked on contract with ANARE as a supervising communications
> technical officer for one year. He had operated as VK0AC from Davis Base,
> Antarctica in 1998. Peter has already departed for VK0 on March 11th,
> so he may have already arrived on the island. He will be staying on the
> island until December of this year. He will only be on the air in his
> spare time. His operating site will be the same house which Tom, VK0TS,
> used in 1997. Peter is expected to operate on all bands including 6
> meters. However, he does not have much experience in DXing, so please be
> patient in the early part of his operation. QSL Managers will be Masa,
> JE1LET, for his JA QSOs and Toshi, JA1ELY, for other DX QSOs.
>
> VP6/D, DUCIE ISLAND. Pilot stations Stu/WA2MOE, Yoshi/JE2EHP and Jay/AF2C
> have been keeping the DX community well informed over the past week on
> the activity and status of VP6DI. As this was being typed, reports
indicate
> that the team is tired but in good spirits. Over the past weekend there
> has been some activity on 80/40/17 meters. On 160 they make no promises.
> The operator N9TK (VP6DI) reported that the vertical antenna intended for
> use on 160 and 80 is giving the operators trouble. They are trying to
> repair it. Also, there is word that there is something wrong with the RTTY
> equipment. The VP6DI team is scheduled to cease operation on March 27th
> and leave the island that evening (their time). They intend to arrive on
> Henderson Island (OC-056) on March 28th. This is a rare IOTA. They will
> only stay for one day and depart Henderson on March 29th. On March 30th,
> they will arrive at Pitcairn (long enough to eat lunch). On April 1st,
> they are expected to arrive back in Gambier, and all should be back home
> by April 3rd. Remember, QSL Manager is Garth Hamilton, VE3HO, for all HF
> operations only. QSL Manager for all 6 meter QSOs is Kan, JA1BK. A log
> search is or will be available at: http://www.big.or.jp/~ham/dx.html

> WIND/WATERMILLS ACTIVITY. OPDX was informed that "National Mills Weekend"
> will take place on May 11-12th. The Denby Dale Amateur Radio Society
(DDARS)
> is once again co-ordinating the "Mills On The Air". The "Society for the
> Protection of Ancient Building" (S.P.A.B.) runs the mills event every
> year on or around the second weekend in May; however, amateur radio is
> another part of the many attractions that take place. Certificates this
> year will be issued like last year by working 10 stations or more on 1 or
> both days, send 3-00 pounds or more payable to DDARS via Sue, G0WFE.
> Currently, S.P.A.B has not decided what mill to activate during this
event,
> but details are forthcoming. Watch for up-to-date info via Internet,
> Packet, RSGB news and the following Web pages:
> http://www.spab.org.uk/mills
> http://www.qsl.net/g4cdd/mills.htm
> ADDED NOTE: This event is not a contest. They just want to have a good
> time promoting the wonders of amateur radio while helping to remind "Joe
> Public" that there are still a few individuals left who enjoy preserving
> our heritage, and why not. The above group would like to see more
> Wind/WaterMills active during this event.
>
> XR0, SAN FELIX ISLAND. The USA pilot station Dr. Bill, K6GNX, has been
> keeping the DX community well informed over the past week on the activity
> and status of XR0X. As this was being written, XR0X was operating 3 SSB
> stations (one shared with RTTY), 3 CW stations and 6 meters. One CW
> generator failed and was replaced with a spare. The piles are thinning
> out. The XR0X team expects to go QTH sometime during March 26th to have
> everything loaded aboard ship to weight anchor at 1200z (local) on the
> March 27th. QSL via John Kennon, N7CQQ, P. O. Box 31553, Laughlin,
> Nevada 89028 USA. The San Felix Expedition Web site has up-to-date news
> and a log search available at: http://www.cordell.org/SFX

> XY3C for CW, XY5T for SSB and XY7V for the digital modes. They plan to
> have three stations (w/amlifiers) active at all times on 160-6 meters.
> Yagis will be used between 30-6 meters. The lower bands will use
horizontal
> and vertical systems. They plan to travel and operate (possibly) from
> three different locations. There will be limited operation between August
> 4-8th from Yangon (on 40-6 meters). Then between August 9-22nd, they will
> operate from Ngapal, near Thandwe (earlier known as Sandoway) at Arrakan
> coast. There is a small chance, for a short period, that they may activate
> a new IOTA in the Arrakan Group. QSL Managers are as follows: XY3C via
> DL4KQ, XY5T via IN3ZNR and XY7V via DL8KBJ (direct or bureau). They have
