Hello Joe
I answer your question on last net-notes last week.
Most of JA EMEers do not know about the net-notes and they are very rare to
check the latest sked list on K2UYH web pages.
Personal proposal via e-mail would be successful.

JS3SIM ([email protected]): he hopes weekend skeds on 432.070 to
avoid local QRM. He would not QRV at 0730z on Feb 22 (= 1630 local time on
Friday, he needs to work).
JJ1NNJ([email protected]): he can QRV on weekend. Pse contact to confirm
the skeds via e-mail.
JR9NWC([email protected]): he has been very busy by business trip to
overseas. Pse contact to confirm the skeds via e-mail.

confirm the skeds via e-mail.
JA6AHB([email protected]):he can QRV on 432 and 1296 and wish to ake a sked
by personal mail. Pse contact him via e-mail.

Other stations:

With deep regret I have to announce that ON4UV passed away last week-end.
Marc was licensed for more than 50 years.
His passion for the radio led him towards moonbounce.
He made his first EME contacts in 1985 on 432 Mhz. In 1991 he switched
to the 23 cm band.
Not being a DX hunter, he always preferred to experiment, which lead him
in 1996 to start the assembly of a parabolic dish of 3 meters, suited
for 10GHz EME.
One year later, he announced he was ready for the first tests, but
health troubles caused delays, postponing the project.
Although the station was ready for 95%, he was not given the time to
perform his first tests.
Marc left us on February 17 at the age of 82 years.
As long as the moon will shine, we will remember him.

CC:     [email protected] (Joe (E-mail))

I was hoping to be QRV in the 23cm ssb contest this weekend... this seems very 
unlikely due to very bad weather. We have had high to gale force winds over the 
last few days, and this is forecast to continue accompanied by snow.
This looks like the one occasion where the weather forecasters look like they 
got it right!

I hope that elsewhere in Europe you have better WX and that you are able to make 
plenty of activity in the contest. Hopefully, I can be QRV again next month.

Check my web site for my latest activity plans and reports 

Best 73 & GL
