Hello to all.

If all is working out OK, I will be QRV from the evening of Jan. 3 until
Jan. 6  from  4U1ITU in Geneva (JN36BF)

The station-manager has been so kind to give me permission for a short
visit to the club station to work VHF only.

Station: FT847 and PA with 3CX800
Ant:  10el. (13.4 dBd.) and 0.6 dB preamp, incl. input-filter!
MS-QRG for FSK: 144.358  (if not too much QRM).
If no reflections there is time for some Tropo.

No sked's: just random operation, I will try to announce the
antenna-direction from time to time via logger/cluster.

When you call:
Pse think about: Geneva is in a valley.
This means signals getting out is just one thing; but signals getting
into the valley is more difficult.!!
No problem for more stations calling me at the same time. 
Pse do send suffix of calls-sign's with R's.

I hope to work a lot of you, think this is the first 2 mtr. MS activity
since 2000.
(Of course I will try to be QRV as much as possible, but do need some
sleep in a nearby hotel...)

Best 73's and happy new year,

Chris, PA2CHR
