Hello All

1A0KM is QRV 2m EME (CW). Grid: JN61.
Wolfgang DL5MAE (operator) and Ben DL6RAI, after a 1000Km drive, have setup
the station and all is working!
They will be on tomorrow July 15, moonrise to moonset.

Half an hour before my moonset we tried today, copied them and send O
report, they copied me also, but we could not complete due to excess Sun
noise in moon's direction, QRN on my side, as well as E-s on their side
during our test.

Please note that:
They need around 20 degrees elevation to clear at their moonrise.
Also at southwest they have a palm tree which blocks them, but only for a
quite short azimouth range. So if u lose them for little time then, not to
worry.
Pwr is 1kw due to low electricity (mains) line.
There is qrm as they are in the center of a big city, but manageable as they
replaced the preamp with another one which handles the situation better.

Operating details:

Call: 1A0KM

QRV: 15th of July 2007 (moonrise...moonset)

QRG CW:
TX: 144.082MHz
RX: 144.083MHz (if QRM then they will listen
from 144.083...144.086 MHz)
Stations pls spread and not call one on top of the other.

Period: 1 min sequences, 1A0KM TX always the EVEN minute (00/02/04)

RIG: 2x17el M2 and 8877 PA

QSL: via IK0FTA

Elevation: full elevation

73 & GL to all,
Jimmy SV1BTR
