"In these days with of DQRM, anonymous and nasty comments, it does not exists a better answer than explaining, and try to sensitize, show the work done for a so ambitious project". Please visit http://blur.by/1KGFCIT (French version) and http://blur.by/1LziqfS (English version). K1N ---> An interesting interview with Glenn Johnson, W0GJ on the recent DXpedition to Navassa Island can be found on the Mediterraneo DX Club's website: http://www.mdxc.org/k1n-interview-for-mdxc-by-w0gj/. It gives good food for thought, and it's definitely worth reading.

LISTINFO-LPC 1543 : ARISS Saint-Junien
by Raymond AUPETIT 25 Feb '15

25 Feb '15

Bonjour Dans le Populaire du Centre de ce jour. 73 de Raymond F-15873. 25/02/15 - 16h48 Des collégiens de Saint-Junien vont dialoguer avec la station spatiale le 13 mars Depuis de longs mois les élèves ont préparé ce rendez-vous avec un enthousiasme jamais émoussé. Vivement le 13 mars. C'est un parcours de longue haleine qu'ont mené les membres du club radioamateur avec les autorités internationales. Il aboutira pour le plus grand profit des élèves le 13 mars prochain. La morale de cette belle histoire tient en quelques mots : il ne faut jamais désespérer. Lorsqu'il y a plus de deux ans Sylvain Vallat, représentant du club radioamateur de Saint-Brice-sur-Vienne, a présenté son projet au collège Paul-Langevin, il a reçu un accueil enthousiaste. Contact le vendredi 13 mars, entre 11 h 20 et 11 h 30 Permettre à des collégiens de dialoguer avec les habitants de la station spatiale internationale est un rêve que peu peuvent réaliser. Certes, le chemin a été long, les difficultés, les retards se sont présentés aux organisateurs de cette grande expérience, unique en Limousin mais jamais personne ne s'est résigné. Et c'est désormais chose faite : le projet ARISS 87 arrive à son terme. Les agences spatiales viennent de confirmer le rendez-vous des collégiens avec l'espace. Les élèves ont découvert la magie de l'espace C'est la spationaute Samantha Cristoforetti qui répondra aux questions des élèves du collège Paul-Langevin de Saint-Junien le vendredi 13 mars, de 11 h 20 à 11 h 30. Ce contact radioamateur viendra récompenser les élèves du collège et les membres du Club Radioamateur de Saint-Brice- sur-Vienne qui ont travaillé d'arrache-pied pour que cette aventure reste dans les annales. Pour mémoire, les enfants - au-delà des travaux et recherches effectuées dans le cadre du projet - ont pu bénéficier d'une rencontre privilégiée avec Léopold Eyharts, dernier spationaute français à avoir voyagé dans l'espace. Ajoutons aussi que Benoît Reeves, astrophysicien de renom assurant la succession de son père Hubert, est venu assurer une conférence sur les découvertes scientifiques liées à l'espace. Les élèves ont aussi pu découvrir mieux l'astronomie grâce à l'organisation de deux semaines de la science autour de ce sujet. Autant dire que les jeunes collégiens sont devenus des experts et peut-être même que des vocations sont nées. Ajoutons encore que deux séances d'entraînements viennent de valider l'ensemble des paramètres techniques permettant la communication avec la Station spatiale internationale. Il semble que le contact devrait se dérouler dans les meilleures conditions. Rendez-vous le 13 mars Laurent Borderie laurent.borderie(a)centrefrance.com

LISTINFO-LPC 1542: Journée scolaire de l'IDRE

Bonsoir Un article extrait de " La Dépêche du Midi " de ce jour, concernant la journée de découverte de la radio, pour les scolaires de la Haute-Garonne, à Saint-Lys. Elle est organisée par l'IDRE. L'UFT devrait être présente avec un atelier, pour la 1ère fois. Le titre marque 2 jours mais il n'y a que le jeudi 5 mars.(c'est dans le texte). Bonne lecture et 73 de Raymond. F-15873. Les bonnes ondes de l'IDRE les 5 et 6 mars Publié le 24/02/2015 Saint-Lys (31) Les télécommunications dans l'espace : embarquement immédiat ! A travers ses journées de découverte, l'IDRE, Institut pour le Développement des Radiocommunications par l'Enseignement, association loi 1901, soutenue par la mairie de Saint-Lys, vise à permettre au plus grand nombre de jeunes de découvrir une passion, la radio, mais aussi des techniques, des métiers, des inventions qui ont marqué l'histoire des télécommunications. Des intervenants reconnus comme le Musée du Lherm, Météo France, la Mediatic, le CNES, et bien d'autres encore, tous plus passionnés les uns que les autres, se sont donc une nouvelle fois donné rendez-vous à l'espace Gravette de Saint-Lys, le jeudi 5 mars, pour proposer aux écoles de l'académie de Toulouse, cette découverte autour de la radio et des communications. Très attendue cette année : L'Union Nationale des Télégraphistes devrait rejoindre les ateliers habituels pour proposer une découverte du morse. Cette manifestation accueillera principalement des écoliers du CE1 au CM2, des environs avec Saiguède ou Longages, mais aussi venus de beaucoup plus loin avec Garidech, Villemur ou Montauban de Luchon par exemple. A noter, ces journées restent libres d'accès à tous les curieux ou nostalgiques de la radio (Saint-Lys Radio maritime) et du morse.

LISTINFO-LPC 1541: PRESSE: Coupe du REF à F4KIY
by Raymond AUPETIT 24 Feb '15

24 Feb '15

Bonsoir C'est dans Le Républicain Lorrain de ce jour. Bonne soirée/lecture. 73 de Raymond F-15873 Moselle Bouzonville Radio-club amateur de Brettnach : pas si amateurs que ça… Vie associative Radio-club amateur de Brettnach : pas si amateurs que ça… Aujourd'hui à 05:00 par Nicolas THIERCY. Seule une partie de l’équipe de Brettnach est présente sur cette photo. Les autres se reposent. Il faut dire que la compétition s’est déroulée de samedi 7 h au lendemain dimanche 19 h… Photo RL Le village de Brettnach abrite un Radio-club qui ne compte plus ses heures pour joindre par les ondes d’autres passionnés à travers le monde. Ce week-end, le "team" local concourrait pour le championnat de France de phonie. De leurs ondes lancées du pays de Nied, ils prennent contact avec des habitants du monde entier. Sauf que ce week-end, tout l’intérêt de la compétition était de contacter en priorité des radio-amateurs français. En effet, dans le cadre du championnat de France de phonie (ou coupe du réseau des émetteurs français), les contacts établis dans l’Hexagone valaient 6 points, et ceux avec l’étranger un point. « Le pompon, c’est lorsqu’on décroche un contact avec une station des Dom-Tom : ça vaut 15 points. » De samedi 7 h du matin au lendemain dimanche 19 h, ce sont 15 membres de l’équipe du Radio-club F4KIY du Pays de Nied qui se sont relayés au micro et à la prise de notes. « On fonctionne en binôme : il y en a un qui établit les contacts et l’autre qui note les renseignements : la force du signal, l’indicateur de l’interlocuteur et son département. On change de binôme toutes les heures », détaille Florent (F4EJL) Muller. Et voilà comment nos radio-amateurs de Brettnach atterrissent successivement à l’autre bout de la France, puis sur l’île de la Réunion ou encore sur l’île Tintamarre, une île inhabitée située à 3 km à l’Est de l’île de Saint-Martin… Et tout ça en quelques minutes. « Le classement ne sera dévoilé que dans plusieurs mois, le temps pour les instances nationales de collecter toutes les preuves de contacts et surtout de les vérifier », précise Nicolas (F4AFE). L’an dernier, pour la même compétition, le team de Brettnach s’est hissé à la 11e place. Une prouesse que le F4KIY compte bien réitérer cette année. Formation Installée dans les anciens locaux du Football-club, la section radio-amateur a vu le jour au sein du foyer socioculturel de Brettnach il y a deux ans. L’an dernier, la structure a mis en place sa première session de cours en vue de former les radio-amateurs de demain. Car avant de pouvoir prendre contact avec le monde entie r, il faut obtenir une licence et satisfaire à un examen auprès de l’Agence nationale des fréquences (ANFR). L’examen est basé sur la réglementation mais aussi sur les fondamentaux des transmissions et de l’électronique. « De janvier à juin 2014, le club a formé six personnes, dont deux femmes et un jeune de 16 ans », se réjouit Frédéric (F4HJZ) Ulmer. Vers l’infini et au-delà Tous les vendredis soirs à partir de 19 h, les membres du club se réunissent dans leurs locaux facilement identifiables par le nombre d’antennes qui fleurissent sur la toiture et à côté. C’est parti ensuite pour une soirée où tous les radio-amateurs tentent de capter des messages venus de toute la planète. « On chasse les pays qu’on n’a pas encore contactés. On fait une collection de cartes QSL, que s’envoient les radio-amateurs du monde entier pour prouver qu’ils sont bien entrés en contact. Certaines pièces sont rares, au point de devenir des collectors. » Au fil de ces expériences de radio-amateurisme, il peut arriver aussi de faire des rencontres surprenantes. Comme celle, il y a quelques années, d’un ancien télégraphiste de Porcelette qui avait discuté avec le roi Hussein de Jordanie, sans le savoir. Il l’a découvert quand il a reçu sa carte QSL ! Il est même arrivé à un membre d’entrer en contact avec la station spatiale russe Mir, en 1998, à un moment où celle-ci passait au-dessus de la France… Des anecdotes et des souvenirs que ne se lassent pas de raconter ces passionnés.

CE0Z - An "Early Departure Team" has been in Chile since 16 February to arrange the shipment of the equipment to Robinson Crusoe Island, Juan Fernandez [425DXN 1240]. They expected to leave for the island on the 20th, to set up antennas and stations. "Due to new regulation rules which enter in force this week", they say, "flights to Juan Fernandez are now limited to 6 passengers. This change implies more planes than before and a dramatically increased budget which now represent an overall cost of US$ 56.000 (only for flights)! We would have prefered to transport the passengers by sea, but the only maritime company with adequat fleet has a very limited capacity". The second group of operators will arrive on Sunday (22 February); activity as 3G0ZC will then start as soon as possible. QSL via F1ULQ (OQRS on Club Log) and LoTW.

[TNX The Daily DX] =========================== *** 4 2 5 D X N E W S *** **** GOOD TO KNOW ... **** =========================== Edited by I1JQJ & IK1ADH Direttore Responsabile I2VGW 425 DX NEWS MAGAZINE ---> The January 2015 issue is now available for download at www.425dxn.org/monthly/index.html.

This year's event will run from from 00.00 UTC on 21 February through 23.59 UTC on the 22nd. Do not forget to give a look at the Announced Operations listing maintained by Bill, NG3K at www.ng3k.com/Misc/adxc2015.html - good contest to you all! CHESTERFIELD 2015 ---> TX3X has been officially issued to the 2-12 October DXpedition to the Chesterfield Islands [425DXN 1238]. The on-island team is now complete, and includes twelve operators (AA4NN, HA5AO, K5GS, K6GFJ, K6MM, K6TD, K6TU, N6HC, ND2T, W1SRD, W2LK, WA6O). The fundraising campaign is underway, please visit www.tx3x.com for information on how to donate. As for QSLling, a "fully integrated Log Search / OQRS / QSL management application" has been developed by the team. "The QSL management back end functions will significantly reduce the labor associated with processing OQRS, Direct and Buro requests, including LoTW". TX3X's QSL policy is detailed on the website. COCOS ISLAND ---> TI9/3Z9DX has been QRV from Cocos Island since 20 UTC on 16 February and will be QRV until the 23rd. MM0NDX reports that the operators (3Z9DX and RA9USU, SP8SIW and TI2HMJ) are not permitted to move from the location they have been assigned, which is surrounded by hills and almost entirely blocked to Europe. A complete write-up of previous activations of TI9 can be found on the Documentary Archives Radio Communications'website: www.dokufunk.org/cocos-e. K1N ---> The DXpedition went QRT on 15 February at 11.27 UTC. The last helicopter flight left Navassa at 15 UTC with the three team members who overnighted to keep stations QRV until the last possible moment. The full log has been uploaded to Club Log. It shows 139,702 QSOs (72770/CW, 54821/SSB and 12111/RTTY) with 35,825 unique callsigns. As for the breakdown by continent, 81551 QSOs (58.4%) were made with North America, 44755 (32.0%) with Europe, 8105 with Asia, 3208 with South America, 1204 with Oceania, 876 with Africa and 3 with Antarctica. QSL via N2OO, direct (Bob Schenck, P.O. Box 345, Tuckerton NJ 08087, USA) or bureau; Club Log's OQRS has been activated for both direct and bureau cards. The logs will be uploaded to LoTW "sooner rather than later". If you do not find your QSO on Club Log, please send your complete log data to k1nqsl[(a)]yahoo.com, and be prepared to wait a bit, as "it may take several days for us to research your request". MEGA DXPEDITIONS HONOR ROLL ---> In the late 90s Jari Jussila, OH2BU started collecting records of DXpeditions that make at least 30,000 QSOs. What it used to be a spreadheet has been put into a database maintained by Bernd, DF3CB and hosted on the German DX Foundation's website: http://gdxf.de/megadxpeditions/. It is not a mere statistic exercise, but an intriguing review of 221 DXpeditions (so far) that have made the history of DXing over the years, from 8Z4A in 1979 to the most recent K1N and EP6T in 2015. Comments, corrections or additions to the list should be sent to Jari.Jussila[(a)]oh2bu.pp.fi and bernd[(a)]df3cb.com. QSL VIA G3SWH ---> Phil, G3SWH has managed to obtain copies of the logs for 8P9FX, G3RFX, GO3RFX, GQ3RFX, GR3RFX, PJ2/G3RFX, ZB2FX, ZB300FX, ZG2FX and ZQ2FX, all operated by the late Martyn, G3RFX (SK June 2014). All logs have been uploaded to LoTW. There are also log searches available at www.g3swh.org.uk and on Clublog. Phil also plans to upload the logs for DJ0EQ and DJ0EQ/p (Martyn's operations from Berlin in the 1970s). As Martyn's RSGB membership lapsed on his passing, paper QSL are only available direct from G3SWH, preferably through his OQRS (http://www.g3swh.org.uk/multiple-request.php). Please do not send QSL cards via the bureau system as they will not be received. [TNX G3SWH] S01WS ---> The Sahara DX Team twitted that on 15 February S01WS, the Sahrawi Amateur Radio Union's club station, "suffered various failures, which forced to suspend any activity for an extended period of time". + SILENT KEY + Charles "Frosty" Frost, K5LBU [425DXN 1239] passed away on 14 February, the day of his 74th birthday. Over the years he often travelled and lived in Africa; more recently he organized annual DXpeditions (3DA0CF, 7P8CF, A25CF, C91CF, C81CF) for several operators to join him. =========================== *** 4 2 5 D X N E W S *** ******* QSL ROUTES ******* =========================== Edited by I1JQJ & IK1ADH Direttore Responsabile I2VGW =================================================================== CALL MANAGER CALL MANAGER CALL MANAGER =================================================================== 3B8CW NI5DX EG4PAR EA4PN P49X W0YK 3D2KM W6ZL EG5ANT EA5DY PA15CC PA7HPH 3G7R CE7FKG EG8FLL EA8URE PA40FAW PA0FAW 3W3B E21EIC EH5ANT EA5FL PI25COM PA3CAL 3Z51EY SP7EY EI1Y EI5JQ PI4A PB1WB 3Z51MOC SP7MOC EM4IFF US5IQ PI4D PA3ERA 3Z51OXU SQ7OXU EN7P UT1PG PI4F PD1WAT 3Z51POS SP7POS FG4KH F1DUZ PI4ZU PC4DX 3Z51PSW SP7PSW FO/K8PGJ K8PGJ PJ2T W3HNK 3Z51R SP7RJI FS4WBS IZ1MHY PJ4D W3HNK 3Z51S SP7SEW FW5JJ F5RXL PJ4F M0URX 4H1T DU1IVT H2X IZ4AMS PJ4NX M0URX 4U0ITU 4U1ITU H44MS DL2GAC PJ7/WJ2O N2ZN 5B4AGN M0URX HA10SOTA HA1DTQ PJ7AA AA9A 5B4ALX IZ4AMS HB9ICE HB9BHY PR5P PT2OP 5C5W EA5XX HF0A SP9YI PW0F OH2BH 5H1ES IK3GES HF51SDA SP7PFD R1989A UA4AJD 5H1OC IK6CAC HG30CW HA3NU RC70YC K2PF 5H6JG HA3JB HG90IARU HA5MA S01WS EA2JG 5T0JL ON8RA HH2/N3BNA KA2AEV S79CO JT1CO 5W1SA JA1DXA HI3TT W2CCW SU0ERA SM5AQD 5W7A YT1AD HK1NA K6IPM SU9IG OM3CGN 5Z4/EA4ATI EA4YK HK1R K6IPM SX2AG SV2HXV 6Y2T VE3DZ HL2ZIK JE1XUZ TG9IIN K4TI 6Y5JH EA5GL HL2ZIM JG1WBB TI8/AA8HH K8DV 7Q7BP G3MRC HP3AK W4JS TI9/3Z9DX 3Z9DX 7X3V 7X2ARA HR5/AA4NC AI4U TM12WAP F8DHE 8P2K KU9C HS0ZKG F6AXX TR8CA F6CBC 9A0Z 9A3JB II0LOVE 9A8AOT UE23DZO RA4DR 9H3KZ G2BKZ II1MNA IQ1GE UE23DKA UA4PIE 9J2HN JR2KDN II2ANT I2JJR UE23DSA RL3DV 9M4SI 9M2YOT II5ANT IZ5BTC UE92L RQ7L 9M8XXW/6 DJ8XW II6ANT IW6NZY V26M W3HNK 9V1YC W5UE II8POLE IK8FIQ V31AT K5PI 9X0PY SM6CPY IO9Z IT9DSZ V31KP DK1IP AH0KT JH8PHT IR1ANT I1HYW V55V DJ8VC AO4HAG EA4GKV J73CCM SM0CCM V63MJ M0URX AT3ANT VU2UR J75D SM5DJZ VA7AAW VE7IG AU4ASR VU2AJO J79WW N4USA VC7G VE7JH BW2/JP1RIW BM2JCC K4C K4MZU VE2CSI M0URX C21BN JH1NBN K6IJ/KH6 EA5GL VK2ANT VK2FR C5DX G4DJX KG4AS N4SIA VP2MRS KB8RJ C6ABB N2RFA KG4HI WB2REM VP2MUR KB8RJ C6AKQ N4BP KG4RQ WB2REM VP8DBR G0SWC C6ARU N4UM KG4YL K9DIG VY1JA N3SL C6ATS NI5DX KH7XX EB7DX W2VQ/C6A WQ2N C6AUM K4RUM KP2M AI4U XU7AES KB4FB C6AWW NX4N LY97A LY5A YE0C YB0OKR CE3/KQ7W AC7DX LY97O LY8O YL390BF YL3BF CR2X OH2BH LZ112RF LZ1YE YL390UI YL2UI CR6K CT1ILT N0J JQ2GYU YR0WL YO9KPB D44EE OZ1BII OE88WAP OE3KKA Z81X OH0XX DP1POL DL1ZBO OE89ANT OE3AIS ZA/IW2JOP IW2HAJ DP7BVBG DF7AA OE90AAW OE3SGA ZL1WND EA5ZD DQ40AIX DJ9KR OG0Z W0MM ZL7/F8FUA F8FUA DU3LA N0QM OH0Z W0MM ZM3T ZL3TE DU9AQQ EA5GL P40L WA3FRP ZV2K PY2SHF EA6UP EA6SK P40LE K2LE ZW2R PY2LCD EG1LSP EA1GIB P49MR VE3MR ZW5WIM PU5IKE 3Z9DX Dom Grzyb, skr. poczt. 84, 34-200 Sucha Beskidzka, Poland 4U1ITU IARC, P.O.
