Boa Tarde Rodrigo, CT1FOQ.
Saíram mais informações desta Expedição DX organizada pelos colegas espanhóis Elmo (EA5BYP) e Javier (EA5KM), chamo a atenção para as frequências sugeridas, antenas para TX em 160m, e em especial a K9AY para escutar nas Bandas Baixas;
3C9B and 3C0C DXpedition
Dates have been announced for the upcoming Bioko Island (AF-010), Equatorial Guinea, and Annobon Island (AF-039) DXpedition.
Both operations will only be manned by two Spanish amateur radio operators.
Operators mentioned are: Elmo EA5BYP (SSB and RTTY) and Javi EA5KM (CW and SSB).
The team is expected to leave Thursday, June 3rd, for Bioko Island, and be on the air the very next day as 3C9B.
Activity will last until June 7th. They state, "We will spend as much time as possible on the radio. There we will pick up our supplies to live on the island of Annobon for 14 days." The operators also mention that (edited) "they have undertaken a great effort, both physical and financial, in preparing this DXpedition, but unfortunately, for reasons beyond our control, we have been unable to go in April."
Look for activity to be on 160-6 meters using CW, SSB and RTTY. The team states (edited), "We know the importance of an activation on 160m from the island of Annobon."
Suggested frequencies are:
CW - 1830 (Asia/Oceania RX 1820-1825 ), 1832 (Europe RX 1835-1840 and North/South America 1833-1835), 3524, 7024, 10115, 14024, 18071, 21024, 24892, 28024 and 50104 kHz
SSB - 1850, 3790, 7065/7165, 14195, 18140, 21275, 24940, 28475 and 50140 kHz
RTTY - 3582, 7038, 10140, 14082, 18102, 21082, 24922 and 28082 kHz
The team will have three HF stations, but will only have two stations on the air. Antennas to be used are: Spiderbeam (20/17/15/12/10m), 80 meter vertical, 160 meter Inverted L, Cushcraft 5 element yagi on 6m and
SteppIR (80-6m). They will also use beverages and K9AY for RX on the lower bands. During their operation from Annobon Island, they will not have an InterNet connection, so the logs will be published after their DXpedition.
