2001-09-03 Thread LX1NO

Pleased to announce an activity from Flatey Island, EU-158, in
the BreiĆ°afiord from September 12 to 19.

Participants are Tiny ON4CAT, Gulli TF8GX, Fred DL8DXL and Norby LX1NO.

Two call-signs will be aired from the same location using the same

and TF4/LX9EG (operated by Fred and Norby), QSL to LX1NO.

The acitivity is planned to take place between 80m to 10m, using

[DXR] off topic: to IC746 756 Users

2001-09-03 Thread Maciej Muszalski

hi!

i'm looking for a honest answer from guys who worked both on ic746 and
756
or who can describe (in an easy to understand language) which one of
those trx is better

I can either buy a new ic746 or a 2/3 years old 756 for the same price,
i'd rather go for the new trx.. but.. there is that "but". What are the
real differences between those two? (except of 2m)

if someone can help i'd be thankful.

last when i asked abt the 746 i got few opinions like : better buy 756.
But Why?

Re: [DXR] 5H3RK - good or Slim?

2001-09-03 Thread Harry A. Hodges

Hi Dave,

Happy that you have received 5H3RK's Dar es Salaam address. I have received 
a QSL from him for each band/mode worked promptly.

The word "inconnu" is actually French. In essence it means the addressee is 
unknown.

[DXR] 5H3RK - thanks to all

2001-09-03 Thread David M. Monfried

This reflector is really extraordinary! Within an hour of my post asking how
to QSL 5H3RK, I've received more than 20 responses!

My thanks to all. It seems that almost all of the responders 1) have worked
Ralph in 2001 and 2) QSLs go direct to his Dar-es-Salaam address.

73,
Dave, W2PK

[DXR] 5H3RK - good or Slim?

2001-09-03 Thread David M. Monfried

I worked 5H3RK in April 2001. QSL mgr. is listed as SM0LRK - but my QSL was
 returned for some reason I can't fathom in the Swedish language
("Inconnu").

Now I can find no record of activity from 5H3RK for 2001;  last listed
activity on DX Summit and elsewhere is 1999. Was he the real thing or the
real Slim?

 Thanks.

[DXR] HK5MQZ/0M(SSB) Log up-dated

2001-09-03 Thread Takeshi Yoshida

Jairo HK5MQZ/0M(SSB) log data is updated on Sept-02-2001. 
Then, you can check it again, if you had some doubt before. 

HK5MQZ/0M and HK5QGX/0M Log search page: 
http://www.big.or.jp/~ham/HK0M/

About 200 HK5QGX/0M QSL cards was posted on Sept-02 from 
the manager JA0MGR. 

Guess the following cards will take much time to reach you 
for his job.
