It is available on Google Play - free of charge, no ads. Enjoy! EL2EF --- > Eric, EL2EF (the nephew of Dickson, EL2DT) is a new amateur radio operator from Liberia. "So far he has limited operating experience and basic equipment", DX World reports. "For the time being he is paper-logging, but hopes to have a laptop soon. Thereafter, he will use the services of a QSL manager who will look after his log and QSLs". IREF ---> The Island Radio Expedition Foundation (IREF) was founded in 1999 for the purpose of providing financial assistance for expeditions to rare IOTA groups (i.e. confirmed by less than 15% of island chasers). Now the Board believes "that the time has come for IREF to find other, non-financial ways, to encourage IOTA expeditions to less rare destinations". Therefore IREF will be sponsoring the "IOTA Expeditioner of the Year" award, which "will encourage expeditioners, through friendly competition, to activate islands that won't necessarily meet IREF funding guidelines, but are needed by many of the newer chasers". For information and rules please visit the IREF's new website: https://irefnew.wordpress.com. OC-175 ---> The logs for both DU9/RZ3FW and DU9/R4WAA have been uploaded to Club Log (search for DU9/R4WAA_OC175 and DU9/RZ3FW_OC175), and the OQRS has been activated.

ZA1WW --- > The logs for the recent activity (according to Club Log, 13971 QSOs were made between 24 November and 4 December) have not been uploaded to LoTW. "A difficulty in obtaining the certificate for ZA1WW resulted in one test QSO being listed, which is why an upload shows in 'Find Call'. The logs will be uploaded in due course". [TNX N7NG] + SILENT KEY + John Plenderleith, 9M6XRO passed away on 4 December, after battling cancer for several years. First licensed in 1960 as GM3OOK, he operated as 9V1RS from Singapore for about ten years; then he moved to the Isle of Man (GD3OOK), England (G3OOK) and finally retired to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah (East Malaysia), where after one year as 9M6/G3OOK became 9M6XRO in May 2006. John logged over 250 thousand QSOs with his personal call signs, which included 3DA0OK, 7P8OK, A25OOK, C91XO, CU2/G3OOK/p, EL0A, V8FRO, V85/9M6XRO, XU7XRO, YB9/GM3OOK, ZL/GD3OOK, ZS6/GM3OOK. He was a team member of 4W6A (Atauro Island, Timor Leste 2011), 9M4SLL (Spratly Islands 2012 and 2013), ZL9HR (Campbell Island 2012), N8A & W8A (American Samoa 2013) and 5W8A (Samoa 2013). John was also active in the IOTA Programme, and operated as 9M6XRO/p from OC-133 (five times bewteen 2008 and 2014) and OC-295 (2010), and as 9M6XRO/8 from OC-165 (2011). A keen contester, he also chased DXCC (CW, Phone and Digital). "John's favourite mode was CW, but was comfortable on any mode", his QSL manager (M0URX) recalls. His CW "was so accurate that over the last ten years I rarely had any busted call enquiries". =========================== *** 4 2 5 D X N E W S *** ******* QSL ROUTES ******* =========================== Edited by I1JQJ & IK1ADH Direttore Responsabile I2VGW =================================================================== CALL MANAGER CALL MANAGER CALL MANAGER =================================================================== 3B8JB SM6JBC DU1IST JA1HGY OM17YOTA M0SDV 3B9HA M0OXO E2X E20GMY OM50SPSEKE OM8AND 3DA0AQ EA5GL E44YL IK3GES ON1418POP ON4HRT 3V8SS LX1NO E51ACO JT1CO ON4YOTA M0SDV 3W1T RW6HS E71YOTA M0SDV OP17AR ON7SS 3Z1K SP1KRF EA8JK EB7DX OP17N ON4CRD 4K6FO DC9RI EA9EU EA5KB OP17RCL ON3AR 4K9W DL6KVA ED2C EA2CJ OP70BFS ON2KFJ 4L2M EA7FTR ED8X RN3RQ OT100BCA ON4CRD 4L5P UT7QF EF2A EA2OT OZ100DVI OZ1IVA 4O7CC UA4CC EF8R EB7DX P29XC ZL2XC 4S7DLG DK8ZZ EG2YOTA M0SDV P33W UA3DX 4U1A UA3DX EH2EUS EA2TP PA6X PA7CW 4U1GSC 9A2AA EH2GRE EA2RKW PD6YOTA M0SDV 4U24OCT 9A2AA EH5MM EA5GVZ PJ2ND K8ND 4X2M 4X4DZ EH5SFJ EA5AG PJ2T W3HNK 4Y1A UA3DX EI0R EI6FR PJ4A K4BAI 5B4ALX IZ4AMS EM25IWW UR7IWW PJ4E K9ES 5B4AMM UT5UDX EP2LMA EA5GL PJ4I AD4ES 5P3WW DL1YAW ER4A ER1FF PJ4Y DL5CW 5R8XB ON8XB ES9C ES5RY PS2T K3IRV 5T5TI NI5DX FK8DD NI5DX PX0F PP5BZ 5W0DXA JA1DXA FM5FJ KU9C PX2A PY2VM 5W1SA JA1DXA FR4PV F1UIJ R164S R6CF 5X8C ON6NL G3V G3VER R17YOTA M0SDV 6W1SU M0URX G6T M0URX R1853S R6CF 6Y0D TA3D GB17YOTA M0SDV R1941OM RD5C 6Y3M VE3NE GM2V N3SL R25MGO RK3A 7Q6M K6ZO GW5R GW3YDX RA75SF R4AS 7Q7AB JA7SGV GW9J GW0GEI RI1ANC RN1ON 7S50AW SM6PPS H79H TI4SU RI1ANO RN1ON 7X2YOTA M0SDV HA6YOTA M0SDV RW0A RA0ALM 7X5KBS M0SDV HB9YOTA M0SDV RZ4AZ RW6HS 8P1W KU9C HC0E HC1QRC S79K G3NKC 9A0YOTA M0SDV HC8LUT IK2DUW SH9YOTA M0SDV 9A17YOTA M0SDV HG0IDPD HA5MA SI9AM SM3TIR 9A1957AA 9A2AA HG0YOTA M0SDV SK3W SM5DJZ 9H3DQR SM6DQR HH2MK EB7DX SN150J SP9PGE 9H3HM DK2HM HK3JCL DK8LRF SN150M SP9PGE 9H6A 9H1BT HP1RIS HP1ALX SN150P SP9PGE 9M2CNC G4ZFE HP3SS AC2OV SN6O SP6PAZ 9M2MRS PA0RRS HQ9X KQ1F SN7Q SP7GIQ 9M2TO JA0DMV HS0AC HS5NMF SN8B SP8CUR 9M8YY JR3WXA HS0ZAR K3ZO SO4M SP4MPG 9Q6BB W3HNK IB9T IT9TQH SO9M SQ9UM A31MM EA5GL II2YOTA M0SDV SU9JG EA5GL A31NM JM6EBU II5YOTA M0SDV SW9AA LZ1PM A41NN A61BK II9P IT9CHU SX1T SV1ENG A44A A47RS IO2X IK2NCJ SX2T SV2DSJ A60MD A61BK IR1Y IZ1YPF TF3CW LX1NO A60ND A61BK IR2L IW2LLH TI3/W7RI W3HNK A61EK IZ8CLM IR4M I4IFL TK0C S50C A61FK A61BK IR4X I4EAT TM0R F5GGL A61HA A61BK IR6T IK6VXO TM1A F5GSJ A65CA RV6AJJ J42CPMV SV2HXV TM3R F5UTN A71EM M0OXO J79WTA HB9MFM TM4Q F4SGU AC2CX/KH2 JE1JAC JT5DX JT1CO TO1A F5HRY AH2R JH7QXJ JW2US LA2US UN4L UA9AB B1Z EA7FTR KC4AAC K1IED UN9GD DL8KAC B7Q BA1DU KC4USV K1IED UN9L LZ1YE BI4SSB BA4TB KH2/K2IO JA2JWH UP0L DL8KAC BI4WXD BI4SCC KH6LC WA6WPG UP2L UA9AB C4W 5B4WN KH7M KH6ZM V31MA M0OXO CE3CT EA5KB LN8W LA9VDA V47T W2RQ CK100VDA VA1YL LX4A LX1NO V63DX JA7HMZ CN2AA UA2FM LX7I LX2A V6A JA7HMZ CN2MA LY5W LZ17YOTA M0SDV V73NS W3HNK CN2R W7EJ LZ710SG LZ1KCP VP5M K4QPL CN8KD EA5XX M6T G4BWP VR20EH VR2ZQZ CO2RQ EC5AC NP2J K8RF XF1IM XE2IC CO6RD EA5GL NP2X K5WW XL3T VE3AT CP4BT DJ2BW NP4Z N4AO XV1X RW6HS CP6CL W3HNK OA4SS KB6J XW4ZW K1SE CR3W DL5AXX OC4HC OA4O YE1K EA5GL CR5T CS5ARC OD5YA IZ8CLM YO0YOTA M0SDV CR6K CT1ILT OE0YOTA M0SDV YT17YOTA M0SDV CT9/OL3R OK1VWK OF2YOTA M0SDV Z30YOTA M0SDV CW4MAX EA5GL OG2B OH2BH ZA1WW OH2TA CX2AQ EA5KB OG90AA OH8AA ZB2TT M0URX CX3AT EA5GL OH0R OH2PM ZB2X OH2KI CX5UA EA5KB OH0Z W0MM ZF2OK W1OU CX9AU EA5GL OH1F OH1AF ZF9CW K5GO DA0WRTC DJ9MH OH8X OH2UA ZM4T ZL3IO DF0HQ DL5AXX OH9SCL OH9AB ZP9MCE EA5ZD DM500RT M0SDV OH9W OH5BQ ZS1C W2ARP DQ17YOTA M0SDV OJ9X OH2BH ZS6CCY K3IRV DR0YOTA M0SDV OK2RJC OK2RZ ZW5B K3IRV DT0HH DS3DJX OL17YOTA M0SDV ZW8T PS8HF 5V7SM C.A.R Marc, BP 1013, 87050 Limoges Cedex 2, France 6Y6Y Lester B.

INORC CONTEST ---> The 37th INORC Contest, organized by the Italian Naval Old Rhythmers Club, will be held on 2-3 December (12 UTC to 11.59 UTC) on 80, 40, 20, 15 and 10 metres CW.

Six operators were expected to be active from 30 November to 3 December, but they have been were given permission to be on the island for only ten hours a day, which does not make the effort worthwhile. This was to be the last operation for the XF2L team, who was active from Isla de Lobos (NA-221) on 28 December 2016 and again on 29-31 May, from Isla de Sacrificios (NA-224) on 17-19 February, and from Isla de Enmedio (NA-224) on 28-30 July. + SILENT KEY + Jean Touzot, F8IL, the oldest amateur radio operator in France and possibly in the world, passed away on 1 December aged 109. Up until a few years ago he was still having daily QSOs with French stations on 80m CW. He was a member of the Reseau des Emetteurs Francais (REF) since 1951 and of the Union Francaise des Telegraphistes (UFT).

Son atelier électronique et radio amateur se situe à l’espace culturel Jacques-Prévert. La section est affiliée à l’Association des radios amateurs des Deux-Sèvres (Arads) qui dépend du Réseau des émetteurs français (REF). Des cours théoriques et pratiques d’électronique, pour débutants ou confirmés, sont donnés par Gérard Maurin. Il est le responsable de la section et vice-président départemental, et forme aussi les radios amateurs. Pour cette formation, des bases sérieuses d’électroniques sont nécessaires pour passer le certificat d’opérateur radio téléphoniste qui permet d’avoir une licence d’émission en téléphonie ou télégraphie. Différentes d’internet, les émissions permettent d’avoir des liaisons aériennes directes avec le monde entier. 17 membres participent à la vie de l’atelier dont trois jeunes de moins de 20 ans. Le plus jeune est Louis, 11 ans, et le doyen est Guy, 83 ans. L’année 2018 sera une année importante avec beaucoup d’activités radio amateurs. Le repas de l’Arads aura lieu fin décembre et la galette en janvier 2018. Les réunions se font les 2e et 4e vendredis de chaque mois à 20 h 30. L’adhésion est de 12 €. Les inscriptions se font auprès du centre socioculturel, ou lors des réunions de l’atelier au centre Prévert.

Bonjour Voici quelques annonces et infos glanées... 73 de Raymond. F-15873. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Une communication d’Alain F1MMR : Suite à des problèmes rencontrés avec notre ancien webmaster le site internet du REF 17 avait été mis en stand-by. Grâce à un travail important de la part de Jean-Paul, F5BZK, aidé par Pierre, F4GLJ, administrateur du REF national, un nouveau site vient d'être mis en ligne. Il est maintenant hébergé sur le serveur du REF national à l'adresse : http://ref17.r-e-f.org/ Pour le moment il est en construction, nous y travaillons afin de remplir les différentes rubriques prévues. Nous attendons donc toutes vos remarques, idées et articles pour le compléter, que vous soyez du 17, des départements voisins ou que ce département soit pour vous synonyme de vacances. Avec nos remerciements Jean-Paul, F5BZK f5bzk(a)orange.fr Alain, F1MMR F1MMR(a)wanadoo.fr -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Une suite à l’annonce de F5EAN : A vendre Milliwatt mètre HP 435 sans sonde bon état 50 € Me contacter par mail f5ean(a)free.fr 73' Jean Michel F5EAN -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Une autre communication de Jean-Luc F6GPX bien connu de ceux qui passent leur examen avec son programme, et le tout est accompagné en PJ d’un document de 200 pages sur le sujet : Préparation au certificat d’opérateur : Bonjour à tous, J'attendais d'éventuels changements majeurs dans notre règlementation radioamateur mais comme rien ne semble venir, j'ai mis à disposition la dernière version du cours (datée de septembre 2017) sur notre site Internet : http://f6kgl.f5kff.free.fr/cours_radio.pdf. Cette nouvelle édition comporte peu de modifications par rapport à la version datée d'août 2016. La plus grande modification de ce document concerne sa mise en page : j'imprime les exemplaires pour le radio-club à partir d'une grosse imprimante dont je dispose au bureau. Et cette belle imprimante permet de "brocher" des documents s'ils ont moins de 100 pages (50 feuilles). Aussi le nouveau cours (200 pages) s'imprime sur deux cahiers de 100 pages (un pour le cours, un pour les exercices). Pour cela, j'ai été contraint de supprimer une série d'exercices (il n'y en a plus que 49). Cette nouvelle version m'évite à passer du temps à relier les documents imprimés : tout sort de l'imprimante sans autre manipulation. Les élèves de F6KGL qui ont eu la primeur de ce document apprécient d'avoir deux fascicules séparés, ce qui leur permet, quand ils font des exercices, d'avoir le cours toujours sous les yeux. Ceux qui se préparent uniquement avec EXAM1 mettent le second livre (recueil d'exercices de côté et ne consultent que le premier livre (le cours). 73 de F6GPX Jean Luc

Radioscoutisme : promo camp d'été Bonsoir Une info de F5RUJ. 73 de Raymond F-15873 Je vous transfère le message de notre ami Maurice F8WBE. La brochure "Chasseur d'ondes" est intéressante même si les radioamateurs n'y apprendront rien de nouveau. Elle peut constituer une base pédagogique lorsqu'on a affaire à des ados, comme à Saratech ou lors de nos animations locales. On pourrait diffuser le lien par exemple. Les Scouts font un important travail d'initiation auprès des jeunes et les radioamateurs tireront avantage de contacts suivis avec eux : la pérennité de notre "hobby" passe au moins en partie par cette voie. A l'UFT nous sommes partie prenante de ce rapprochement et nos animations de "jeu de Morse" sont le fruit d'une amicale collaboration dans laquelle nous profitons de l'enthousiasme et de la jeunesse d'esprit de l'équipe du Radioscoutisme. 73 QRO de Alain Cet e-mail contient des graphiques, donc si vous ne les voyez pas, visualiser le dans votre navigateur. Radioscoutisme Invitation – mardi 21 novembre 2017 Radioscoutisme pendant votre camp d'été ! Bonjour Vous vous êtes incrit sur le site du radioscoutisme, il y a six ans ou hier, vous êtes radioamateur ou adhérent de l'une des associations du Scoutisme Français ou bien vous vous intéressez tout simplement à ce que notre petite équipe propose pour intéresser les jeunes à la radiocommunication et aux technologies sous jacentes. Il se peut également que vous soyez venus sur notre site par ce que vous souhaitiez participer au Jamboree-sur-les-Ondes (JSLO) ou au Jamboree-sur-Internet (JSLI). Ce temps de partage que nous permet cette Info Lettre sera aujourd'hui l'occasion de vous rappeler les trois missions du radioscoutisme. • Faire découvrir aux jeunes Éclaireurs et Éclaireuses, Scouts et Guides de France ce qu'est la fraternité mondiale du mouvement scout et guide au travers du JSLO et du JSLI. Ces deux activités émanent de l'Organisation Mondiale du Mouvement Scout. • Mettre les associations nationales en relation avec la planète scoute lors de leurs grands rassemblements, avant d'établir un lien fraternel avec les autres associations nationales à ces occasions par le biais des ondes courtes. • Proposer aux unités locales des jeux, des activités de plein air, des ateliers de bricolage, des temps d'initiation aux techniques de radio communication pour enrichir leurs activités régulières. Pour ces deux premières missions, nous nous appuyons sur le réseau des radioamateurs que nous remercions au passage de leur enthousiasme à répondre à nos sollicitations ponctuelles, chaque fois que nécessaire. La troisième mission est moins connue, pourtant elle se déroule tout au long de l'année, y compris pendant les camps d'été. Avec un peu de préparation, il est tout à fait possible de monter des stations pour communiquer entre deux groupes éloignés ou plus, de monter des grands jeux à base de communications radio, etc. Si cela vous tente, n'hésitez pas à nous contacter sans attendre le mois de juin à radioscoutisme(a)sgdf.fr PS - Une nouvelle brochure intitulée "Chasseur d'Ondes" est téléchargeable à l'URL https://www.sgdf.fr/vos-ressources/doc-en-stock/category/136-radioscoutisme Maurice Le Pesant - F8WBE Coordonnateur national des projets de radioscoutisme pour le Scoutisme Français et les SGDF Je ne suis plus intéressé desinscription

Enjoy! 3Y0Z: BOUVET 2018 ---> While "the sea container should now be between the ports of San Antonio, Chile and its destination, Punta Arenas, Chile", the Team posted on 22 November, "the most recent propagation predictions continue to support the patterns shown in the videos on our propagation page (http://www.bouvetdx.org/propagation/)". The band plan has been published, and it includes FT8. It will not be a primary mode for 3Y0Z, but it will be used only "when we cannot use the standard, higher rate modes", i.e. "when the band dies, or before it opens". Detailed guidelines are available at http://www.bouvetdx.org/band-plan-frequencies/ ("Ten Steps on How to Work 3Y0Z (Bouvet) With FT8"). FT3YL ---> Francois, FT3YL (F4HLT) is now QRT and will be leaving Antarctica soon. During his stay at the Dumont d'Urville Station on Petrels Island (AN-017) he made some 1200 QSOs, logged between 15 February and 29 October.
