vk9mt远征小组途中船上设台。联络的时候不是太拥挤，但信号很微弱，时有时无，能听到他联络了北美的一些电台，还有南美的PX2MC.我喊了大约20多分钟，终于被点名。

Mellish Reef 2014
February 20, 2014
Congratulations to
the FT5ZM team for their excellent operation.
Mellish Reef
DX-pedition is scheduled for March 28, 2014 to April 9, 2014.
Status:
Our equipment is
on the way to Australia and the team is making last minute preparations for
their journey to Australia. An advance team will arrive in Mackay, Australia on
March 18th to begin the process of retrieving equipment from storage and
preparing for the sea voyage. We’ll be assembling several antennas for final tuning and to verify all
the parts arrived. The generators will be tested and prepared for sea shipment.
We’ll have 2 small generators, 1.5KW each and 4 new 4KW
inverters. Antennas will include two 18 meter SpiderPoles w/auto-tuners in the
water using specially designed bases loaned to us by George Wallner, AA7JV who
was on Mellish Reef with the 2009 DX-pedition, 2 folding hex beams, and several
SteppIR BigIR and CrankIR antennas. We have an Inmarsat Broadband Global Area
Network (BGAN) satellite terminal for uploading logs daily to our QSL manager,
as well as photos - if time permits. LoTW will be uploaded shortly after we
return home.
Donation to local
Boy / Girl Scout Council:
At the conclusion
of the DX-pedition locally purchased items such as tents, tarps and tools will
be donated to the Mackay City Central (Boy / Girl) Scout Council. We’ve arranged for them to help us with the disposition of gear that
would be too expensive to ship to EU or the US.
Leaderboard:
After a team
discussion the Leaderboard will not be used for VK9MT. We will be uploading to
Clublog so you can check whether you're in the log. We decided that the
optional Leaderboard function would not help in achieving our stated goal of
providing an ATNO for as many as possible.
Global Pilot Team:
The pilot team
will manage communication between the island team and DXers. While on the
island we will not be checking personal e-mail accounts. Please direct
operational suggestions to the designated pilot for your region. The Pilots will
not have the logs so please do not ask them to verify QSOs. If you think your
call is missing or busted while we are on the reef please work us again. After
we leave the reef direct all logging questions to our QSL Manager, Tim M0URX
[email protected]
Please see VK9MT.COM for information on
the global pilot team.
Upcoming Hamfest Season:
Several members of
the VK9MT on-island team will be attending the Dayton Hamvention and the
Friedrichshafen Ham Radio - International Exhibition for Radio Amateurs, as
well as local ham club meetings and conventions.
Fund Raising:
We are honored to
receive a grant from the ARRL’s Colvin Award Committee. The Colvin Award is funded by an endowment
established by Lloyd Colvin, W6KG (SK), who, with his wife Iris, W6QL (SK),
logged more than 1 million contacts during their world travels, and assembling
one of the largest QSL collections in the world.
