He already worked 22 stations today. Ali told me that he will start LF operation tomorrow morning (Sunday, May 14, 2000) at sunrise (whenever that is, hi). According to our experiences this might be a good time for dx-stations, for example behind the Alps (IK, HB) to try to work the special event station. The other interesting event was already announced here on the reflector, here some further details: At 20.00 UTC tonight DQ0KBM will be QRV on 80m (QRG unknown, watch out for the pileup) in SSB. They will prepare a traffic list. When the list is completed, the old spark gap transmitter "KBM" will make a special transmission around 1820 kHz (might be interesting to listen, how those old spark gap transmitters sound). After the special transmission, DQ0KBM will work down the traffic list to collect reception reports. Have fun tonight, cu later best 73 Geri, DK8KW (W1KW)
