[SV3AAF Petros]

I extend a warm welcome to Victoria and wishing her enjoyable and successful time working EME!!

I am sure the EME gang will offer you a lot of help to overcome any difficulties.

Looking forward to work you off the moon.

A Special Day for SV in Moonbounce:
It is with great happiness that i want to share with you that EME has  
the first Young Lady from our country, in its ranks.

Victoria SV2KBS from kn20wu, is 24 yrs old and a student at Medical  
school. For her first experiences with ham radio you can look her up  
at qrz.com  (the valid e-mail will be changed to, shortly)

She will be QRV on random for the European EME Contest April 12/13 2m  
cw section for her first EME QSOs.

System is finished and working FB. Only thing remaining is for the  
main vertical mast to be lifted to its final position (not an easy  
task) on Saturday before moonrise.
Right now elevation is restricted to 20+ degrees, but if all work out  
on Saturday full elevation capability will be a reality.
2m Rig: 4*17el. 3.3wl, an lz2us 1*gu74b amp, and a 0.6nf in-shack preamp.

QRM in the city of 50-60,000 people she lives in, is evident but in my  
distant view not a prohibiting factor for EME work.

It has been a pleasure for me to closely work with her in the last 3  
months in setting up the station (even though we stay hundreds of Km  
away) and guiding her in her first steps of Moonbouce communication.
What i saw is a fellow station eager to learn, with a big dream and  
commitment for CW EME, focused on the operating principles of Radio.

Anyone that so wishes can welcome her here, as she is in Moon &  
Moon-Net reflectors.

73 & GL to all in the FB Contest!
Jimmy SV1BTR
