Hello all,
I am glad to announce that I will activate
Luxembourg on 136kHz soon!
I am one of the 7 operators from the PA6Z
contestgroup, activating LX the first week of October.
Here are the details for
136kHz:
DATE: september 30 to october
7 , 2006
Callsign: LX / PA6Z in normal CW
only!!
Callsign: LXPA6Z in QRSS
and DFCW , so without the / (-..-.) !! to save time.
Modes: normal CW on 136.5kHz +/- QRM
QRSS/DFCW (3-5 sec/dot) on around 137.720kHz, RX split +/-60Hz from
TX QRG
use the normal T-M-O system on QRSS/DFCW, you can call me
just after I send RR's ( I think to send "6Z RR")
Operating times: I will try to be QRV around noon
(10-11utc) and in the evenings after 17utc or so.
Further instructions: LX/PA6Z is QRV on all HF
bands troughout the day, so if you want to try on 136kHz, please
ask one of our operators, and I'll try to switch
to 136kHz for you.
Please put us in the cluster when you work/hear
us on 136kHz, when it's not in the cluster yet.
This will others tell that were on
136.
Try to work me in normal CW if possible to save
time; QRSS/DFCW is primairly used for weak
signals......
There will be probably no direct access to the
internet from the site, but we will try to update the website and weblog
daily.
Equipement: home-made TX, 500Watt out
or so into 12m spiral-coil toploaded vertical with additional
topwires.
(TX antenna depends on
local situation...)
Receiver: AOR AR7030plus with additional RF
filtering/pre-amp, Rx antenna: not sure yet, most likely 2 large coaxial
loops,
and/or TX antenna, and maybe
beverage.
Timewave DSP59+ and
Speclab/Argo.
Targets: giving as many people as possible a change
to work LX on 136kHz, and stimulating/creating activety throughout
Europe on 136kHz.
And of course, having fun too.....
Hope to meet you from LX!
