[KCDXC] From Carl

[Lee Ward]

Hello DXers:

 

This is a SPECIAL BULLETIN and the following will reveal why.

 

I have been contacted by a person (who I will NOT name) who has the 

capability to pin point (very accurately) the source of an on the air 

signal.  What I am saying is - this person has the professional 

equipment and the expertise to monitor a signal on the ham bands and 

determine to a very narrow area where that signal is coming from.

 

Apparently there was a pirate on 10114 last night signing FT5GA.  That 

signal was NOT coming from Glorioso, it was coming from QUEBEC in 

CANADA, NNE of Montreal.

 

On two other days pirate signals were monitored signing FT5GA, one was 

coming from LATVIA and the other from the SOUTH COAST OF SICILY.

 

These pirates should be relatively easy for "local" DXers to find.  

They need to be specifically identified and pressure brought to bear 

on them to cease their deliberate and illegal activities.

 

The "source" that I mentioned above will continue to provide periodic 

reports like this and I will continue to publish the locations of 

these irresponsible persons.  I ask for those within the areas 

identified pay particular attention and use whatever means are 

available to them to put a stop to these activities.

 

One other item of interest to many of you concerns American Samoa.

Lee, KH6BZF reports that Larry, AH8LG and his family are safe.  He is 

on Solar Power as island power is spotty at best.  Larry's shop in 

Pago Pago harbor did sustain some damage.

KH8AA is reportedly safe also.

 

Your cooperation with the identification of these pirates will be 

appreciated by all of us.

 

73,

Carl, N4AA
