General information

   England, G. Robin M1DUD, writes; Nordic Activity Contest, November
2002. Many thanks to the stations that have supported us throughout
2002. We intend to be active from GX7VHF on Tuesday 26th November from
1800-2200 Station operators will be M1DUD & G7OEC and a possibly guest
new M3 operator. The station is a FT650 with 400 watts and 6 element
widespace up 17 meters. Based on the performance over the last 12
months we will be operating to the following plan hopefully around
50.135 mhz. 1800-2000 concentrating on North-East OZ, OH, ON, PA, DL,
LA, SM 2000-2100. Beaming South and West and North-West for G, GW, EI,
F 2100-2200 Beaming North-East for OZ, SM, PA, SP, LA. Meteor activity
is expected to be low with a couple of minor showers, during the con-
test, so let's pray for an aurora! We look forward to working you.
Robin M1DUD on behalf of GX7VHF.
Note ! As the December 50 MHz is at the 24 th., Christmas evening, the
November section, will bee the last one in 2002. de OZ6OM Matt.

Honduras, HR. Gerard, F2JD will be in Honduras from 10 December through
3 March 2003 and will operate as HR5/F2JD (on 160-6 metres SSB and CW).
He will be based at La Entrada de Copan, but he may also operate from
some islands. QSL via F6AJA either direct or through the bureau. (QSP
de 425 DX News #603)

Neth. Antilles, PJ2. Expedition report. Geoff G4FKA, writes; Hi. Not
sure if I've already sent you a summary of this years 50MHz action from
Curacao (PJ2) so here it is. PJ2/G4FKA monitored and called every day
from 23rd to 30th July 2002. Equipment was IC706 100w to 5 ele at 25m.
Location on the SW coast of Curacao at Groot Sta Martha. Locator FK52LD
Three days offered some propagation. Best day was late 28th/early 29th
with a major lift to USA/VE3 and around the Caribbean. Made about 180
QSOs in all, mainly USA at distances 2500-3500km mainly the states east
and west of the great lakes. Also the shorter path to Florida. Also YV,
YS, VP5, C6, ZF, HC, TI, CO, PP, HI and of course a couple of PJ2 lo-
cals. Great fun and the one major opening made up for all the hours
spent listening to the white noise ! Geoff G4FKA

Amsterdam Isl., FT/Z. FT1ZK, Caroline, is now QRV on 6 meters during
her afternoons. She has been very disappointed as she has not heard any
beacons. Caroline, who is a VHF only Amateur, has a 6 meter beacon QRV
on 50.086 MHz, which is running 24 hours a day. She will be on Amster-
dam Island until January 2003, so keep your 6 meter antennas pointed at
FT/Z until then. QSL via F5JCB. (QSP de The Daily DX #219)
