> 6M REPORT (Hearing 6m DX): [edited] "Greetings -- After I predicted the
> 6m summer Sporatic E's season to begin on 7th June 2009, it appears the
> season has started in FN20 as of 10th June 2009, for the low power
> operators. At 8pm I was working EM 26-40-46-70 in La, Al, and Fl, with
> 100 watts and a thrown up 2 element Quad. On June 11th, I was hearing
> Costa Rica and Fla. On June 12th, at 6pm I was working YV4, HI3, PJ2,
> and Fla with many strong signals on the band. On June 15th, I was working
> into W1 land FN30, FN31 and FN41 at the end of the VHF contest. On June
> 16th, at 4pm I began working Fla and Ala along with J39BS Grenada, ON4IQ,
> HI3TEJ, VP2M and WP4 stations, all with S9 signals into FN20. On Thursday,
> 18th June, at 3pm I began working into EM 32-63-64-74-82-94-95....AL, GA,
> NC and SC. The band started out short to SC, NC and TN. It opened up with
> many stations and strong signals into Fla. I even worked a couple mobiles
> with loops on the roof and a few stations using Halos. For the early
> risers
> on Saturday 20th June 2009, as this is being written, I worked into Europe
> after 7am with stations CN8LI, CT3FQ Madeira Island and CT3KU/p. EA's,
> CU1EZ, CN8SG, and CT3DZ were also heard or worked up until about 1230z.
> All this with 2 elements hanging on my 2 element tribander boom!! And
> the season has just begun!! I have a 4 element 6m Quad being built so I
> can be heard a little better. 6m openings have been very thin in FN20
> and this has brought out all the operators finding 6m on their new radios.
> I had worked several halos, dipoles, and ground plane stations with the
> band open. The real jewel during Sporatic E season is Bermuda....that
> little dot in the middle of the Atlantic. I can't wait to work Ed in
> Bermuda, VP9GE. It is a great thing to hear so many new DX stations on
> six meters. With relaxed regulations on power and antennas, I expect we
> will hear many more stations working into the U.S. at the bottom of the
> sunspot cycle with one small spot showing and no C class or better solar
> flares to report. For size and performance, I don't think you can beat
> the Quad loop or beam. I also use a 6 element yagi pointed towards Florida
> and get similar reports with just 2 elements. Four elements will just
> make things easier for me. Thanks for producing the propagation and
> DX reports. They are well read at this location...."

> 8Q, MALDIVES. By the time you read this, Vlad, RA9LR, should will be
> active as 8Q7LR from Hudhuranfushi Island, North Male Atoll (AS-013),
> until July 2nd. Activity will be on 40-10 meters, mainly Digital but
> with some SSB. He will be use 100 watts into a DX-88 eight band vertical.
> QSL via RA9LR, direct or by the Bureau.

> A35, TONGA (Update). Paul, A35RK, on Wednesday, June 17th, informed
> OPDX that lots is happening in Tonga for him. He told us that "A35RK
> is moving to a new QTH. On December 1st, the whole family is moving
> to Vava'u (OC-064)." He will be departing Vava'u on June 27th, and
> between then and December 1st, Paul will be moving back and forth
> between the island groups. Paul adds, "I will get my yagi antennas
> up in Vava'u ASAP, but no firm date commitment is possible. In the
> meantime, it will be 100w to a G5RV, whenever I am actually in Vava'u.
> I will drop the A35RK/p callsign and revert to the straight A35RK,
> as soon as I make an official change-of-address notification to the
> radio licensing authority. What all that means is that A35RK (OC-169)
> is essentially QRT because the first shipment to Vava'u will include
> all of my radio gear and all of my tools. It is highly unlikely that
> I will do any more operating from Ha'apai." Paul states that he has
> made 80,000+ QSOs from there over the past 13 years, and this should
> be enough to satisfy the IOTA crowd." Bob, W7TSQ, will remain his
> manager, and he will modify Paul's QSL cards to indicate IOTA OC-064.
> Future LoTW logs will likewise be modified, as will QRZ.com info as
> soon as the move is official. On a personal level, Paul states, "This
> is a big move 'up' for us. The whole family is looking forward to the
> improved living conditions in Vava'u (ie, better schools for the kids,
> better telecom and shipping connections, better 'shopping', reliable
> mains power, etc.). Please wish us luck in this new endeavor." OPDX
> wishes Paul the best of luck in his new QTH.
> ANOTHER UPDATE FROM PAUL: "It's official: my A35RK license address has
> been changed by the Radio Licensing Officer. I will stop signing A35RK/p
> immediately. All contacts with A35RK, beginning 0001z, June 18th, 2009,
> will be from Vava'u Island, IOTA OC-064, grid square AH31ai. A35RK from
> Ha'apai, IOTA OC-169 is QRT."
>
> CT8, AZORES. Operators Jan/DL7JAN and Egon/DL2IX will be active as
> CT8/homecall from Faial Island (EU-175) between August 21-31st. Activity
> will be on 80-6 meters using CW, SSB and RTTY. QSL via their homecall,
> by the bureau or direct.
>
> CY0, SABLE ISLAND (Update). The following was received by John, K1XN,
> author of the GoList, from Randy, N0TG (edited): "A challenge for us is to
> keep the weight allowance under control. The charter aircraft limits us
> to 1400 pounds total weight. That includes body weight for the team (3),
> personal items, equipment, antennas, computers, food, EVERYTHING. The
> weight creeps upward pretty fast and must be watched carefully. It looks
> like the low bands will still be very productive ones as Cycle 24 lingers.
> I personally am pleased and excited to have the Battle Creek Special going
> with us. There seems to be lots of interest on 160 by the EU's and others
> as well. One thing that we are 'not' is experienced RTTY operators.
> However,
> the recent few weeks we have equipped our stations with the necessary
> computer interface, software, etc. and are becoming a bit more enlightend
> on RTTY operation. We've made a number of contacts and are pleased to have
> this set up and ready. NCDXF in particular encouraged us to include RTTY.
> Web traffic continues to increase from world-wide QTH's. Certainly, we
> know
> CY0 not one of the most rare spots..but it does look like many are looking
> for it to fill in a mode/band combo, and hopefully it'll be an interesting
> event and promote activity for our wonderful hobby. Thanks..we appreciate
> the support; we can't express that enough!! We look forward to working
> you. http://www.CY0dxpedition.com
