News #589)
Cambodia, XU. Karel ON5TN writes; We will make a trip to Cambodia with
three fellow hams. Max ON5UR, Wim ON6NP and Karel ON5TN will be active
from Cambodia 12 sep - 26sep with the callsigns XU7ACJ and XU7ACN QSL
via ON6NP. In the period from 21sept till 23 sept we will try to acti-
vate Koh Poah Island with the callsign XU7AUR QSL via ON5UR. We will
be active on 160-6 m in all modes. The website for this adventure can
be found at http://home2.pi.be/on5ur/cambodia/index.htm 73's ON5TN
Peru, OA. Martijn PA3GFE, writes; Some DX info about my trip end this
year. I go for 6 months to Peru and Ecuador starting 8 october for vo-
luntary work/holiday. I take with me (in my backpack) a small FT817, a
HF PA and a small lightweight dipole. I hope to be QRV as much as pos-
sible in my freetime on the bands 40-10m CW/SSB and also 50MHz when
condx are good enough. Unfortunately, for 6m I have only 5 Watts. The
callsign will be OA/PA3GFE and I will stay until around the 1st of
January 2003 in Peru. The city where I spend the most time is Arequipa
which is I think in FH43. Finally I go to Ecuador, but I don't know if
I can get a temporary licence there. My trip will last until 31 march.
QSL via my homecall, but QSL cards are printed and sent when I come
back. 73 Martijn PA3GFE

Mozambique, C9. Babs/DL7AFS and Lot/DJ7ZG will once again be active
from here (they were recently active as C98DC Oct. 2001 from Inhaca
Island). Lot reports that after some days of preparations, they will
start their 2 week activity around September 22nd. They do expect to
operate from an island at Northern Mozambique. In Maputo, they will
meet with Rei, C98RF (DL6DQW) and will probably travel together. Rei
will do the CW and 6 meter activity and use his C98RF callsign. Babs
and Lot will try to operate RTTY/PSK mostly on 18101 kHz. Look for
them on the usual DX frequencies. QSL C98RF (CW,6m) to DL6DQW. QSL
C98DC (SSB/RTTY/PSK) to DL7AFS. More information will be announced
later. Check the Web page for updates at: http://www.qsl.net/dl7afs

Western Samoa, 5W. W7TVF, Bill Dawson, who has operated as ZK2VF and
5W0VF, says arrangements are made and confirmed for him and his wife
to go back to Apia, Western Samoa, November 18-December 9. He plans
to operate all bands as usual and will try to improve his RTTY and
PSK31 skills so he can operate those too. He will have a beacon on
50.104 most of the time. He will spend quite a bit of time listening
for Europe and Africa but expects there will still be plenty of time
for everyone else to work him. After the operation he will post his
log on www.airinternet.com. If you need 5W on a particular band or
mode you can email Bill at bill.w7tvf@air-internet.com before he
leaves for the Pacific. (QSP de SMIRK)

tion in the CQ/RJ Worldwide DX Contest (RTTY - September 28-29th) as a

Scotland, GM. Robin M1DUD/M5AEF writes; Outer Hebrides. GM0BPU Mike, a
keen QRP operator now on six meters, from South Uist. This is a family
holiday with a lot of radio thrown in. Operation from IO67 and IO68
will take place for the next two weeks, with the prospect of short skip
into Scandinavia, and the Low-countries. For six meters look out around
50.225 and 50.150 especially during 6m opernings. Any operators wishing
for HF contacts should check out, 3.772, 7.060, 14.260, 18.135 QSLs are
Direct via CBA or Via Buro. I am sure we all wish mike a good holiday,
as the weather forcasts are grim at the moment! Robin M1DUD/QRP
Norway, LA. Robin M1DUD/M5AEF writes; Operation from South Norway I
will be operating from South Norway, as LA/M5AEF/P during the last two
weeks of August. I have had a permission form the Norwegian Radio a-
gency so all looks okay. On 17m I will be using 1 watt and a FOXX3 kit
CW transceiver from Kanga. I will be taking my FT690 with me. I will
be looking for 17 meters - 6 meters cross-band contacts. I hope, to be
QRV in the 50 Mhz Nordic Activity contest, August 27th 2002, the exact
location is not yet known. The frequencies I will be using are as al-
ways 18.076-18.090 and 50.225. I will also be able to operate on 14.060
and 14.050 as I have a 20m dipole available. Please, if I am heard on
either HF band, work me, and spot me on the DX cluster as /QRP. It is
a family camping holiday, so the time for radio will be in short bursts
in the mornings or evenings, and possibly at lunch times if the band is
open. Listener reports as usual are always welcome. QSL either via Buro
or direct. So fingers crossed for some short skip conditions! Operation
on six meters is possible from the following squares: JO28, JO29, JO39,
JO48, JO49, JO59, JP30, JP40, JP50. Skeds m1dud@yahoo.co.uk SMS
