A bulletin from the "S05X Team" announced this past
week the biggest INTERNATIONAL team ever seen in the
desert will be on air from Western Sahara next April
15th. Operators Hrane/YT1AD, Miki/YU1AU, Max/I8NHJ, 
Doug/N6TQS, Jordan/KD7RCD, Marq/CT1BWW, Juanca/EA2RC,
Fernand/ EA1BT, Toni/EA5RM, Julio/EA5XX and
Mahafud/S01MZ (all 11 are first class operators) 
will be doing their best and represent six different
countries: Yugoslavia, USA, Italy, Portugal, Spain and
Western Sahara. They will be working from the very
heart of the desert as S05X. All of them are very well
known DXers and DXpeditioners, and their plans include
a 24 hours, all band, all mode, operation from
S0-land. Using 1KW output power, they are going to
transmit especially on the low bands, CW and SSB, as
well as PSK31, RTTY and 6 meters. They will take a
special interest/care to listen for USA's West Coast
openings. Their antenna farm will include a few yagis,
so they expect to have worldwide coverage. Their pilot
stations will be the two Mediterraneo DX Club Members:

Mauro/I1JQJ ( [email protected] ) and Maurizio (
[email protected] ) 

The QSL Manager is EA4URE, the Spanish Bureau, and
S05X is going to be on the air until April 20th. The
"S05X Team" now has a Web page active with a 
SURVEY to fill out for your "S05X" needs/wants
