They plan to have up to four stations up and running on most bands, with an emphasis on the low bands. On 17-19 March they will take a break for a photo safari in Kruger Park, where they might operate portable ZS6. QSl via home calls. [TNX The Daily DX] 5V - The pilot stations for the current 5V7C operation from Togo [425DXN 669] are: - Bruno/F5AGB (Europe and French speaking countries: [EMAIL PROTECTED]), - Floyd/N5FG (Americas: [EMAIL PROTECTED]), - Mike/UA0MF (Asia: [EMAIL PROTECTED]), - Toshi/JA1ELY (Japan: [EMAIL PROTECTED]) and - Lee/ZL2AL (Oceania: [EMAIL PROTECTED]). The team's plan for working 160 and 80 metres is as follows: - 18.00-21.45 UTC Pacific and East Asia; - 21.45-23.00 UTC Central Asia + Africa /Indian Ocean; - 23.00-02.00 UTC Europe, West Asia + Africa; - 02.00-04.00 UTC South and North America; - 04.00-05.00 UTC North America (West Coast); - 05.00-06.00 UTC KL7 and Pacific. QSL via F5TVG (Franck Savoldi, P.O. Box 92, 94223 Charenton Cedex, France). [TNX QRZ-DX] 7Q - Steve, G4EDG has joined the existing team (G4AXX, GU4CHY, M5RIC and G4JVG) for the 18 April-1 May DXpedition to Malawi [425DXN 663]. Following numerous requests, they have decided to add 160 metres (CW only) to the bands on which they will operate. The 7Q licenses have been issued and are awaiting to be collected in Malawi. The callsign will be announced on the expedition web site (http://www.malawi.digital-crocus.com) shortly before the operation commences. Donations continue to be requested (please contact Steve, G4JVG at [EMAIL PROTECTED]), as those promised so far will cover about 50% of the cost of printing QSL cards only. 9M V8 - Derek/G3KHZ and Maury/IZ1CRR will be joining Ian, 9M2/G3TMA for the IOTA trip [425DXN 657] to Pulau Muara Besar, (OC-184, Brunei) and Pulau Satang Besar, (OC-165, East Malaysia). Operation from Muara Besar is expected to commence on 21 April with Satang Besar following a few days later. They plan to use two transceiver with beam, vertical and dipole for CW and SSB modes to satisfy as many IOTA chasers as possible. The callsigns will be announced later; QSL via G3KHZ, direct or bureau. Surveys of both islands have already been carried out. Muara Besar is uninhabited and they have identified a site with good takeoff to Europe, Japan and North America. Satang Besar has a resident population of two wardens whose job it is to protect the turtles. Unfortunately this island consists of a couple of hills which plunge steeply into the sea. One corner of the beach has a reasonable takeoff for Europe, but things are going to be tough for Japan and North America. The web site for the operations is at http://www.425dxn.org/dxped/borneo/ [TNX IZ1CRR] 9M2 - Keith, GM4YXI will be active again as 9M2/GM4YXI from Kuala Lumpur, West Malaysia on 7-30 March. He also plans one or two IOTA trips on 13-14 and 20-21 March: target destinations are AS-073, AS-046 and/or AS-097, but it will depend on finding accommodation. When in Kuala Lumpur he will operate mostly on 20 and 18 metres, when on the islands he will be QRV on 20-12 metres CW and SSB. QSL via N3SL. [TNX GM4YXI] CE - Fred/HB9AAQ, Gusti/HB9AZA and Andy/HB9JOE will be active as CE8/home call on 12
