This weekend is fast approaching and I haven't seen any Net Notes for past few weeks, nor any skeds. Should I presume there are none? Will be out of here on 27th to Panama city, then Seattle on 29th, then AK on/abt 6th July. Once there, as able, will try also to get on Net from KL7 and when get a config for e-mail there, will try that means also. 73 to all Louis Subj: Re: Skeds Date: 6/18/99 8:02:10 PM Eastern Daylight Time From: Klaus Tiedemann - DL4EBY To: K1rqg@aol.com CC: cleide@inepar.com.br Hi Don, PY5ZBU wrote: > Hi Klaus, > > Please inform WA9FWD that I will not make the sked this week-end as I > must travel to the USA. > > > Best Wishes, > > Don - PY5ZBU > > > P.S.

Date: 6/18/99 8:02:15 PM Eastern Daylight Time From: Klaus Tiedemann - DL4EBY To: K1rqg@aol.com ## Forwarded Message from benton@acenet.net.au, dated 17.06.99 : benton@acenet.net.au Klaus, - Tnx for the excellent job you have done with the arrangement of skeds. After this [June] S/W I will be dismantling my present antenna array to make way for the new array which is now completed but in sub assembly form. Everything is new [apart from the preamp/relay box] including the tower & rotators. I expect final assembly & testing to take five to six weeks which will preclude any July S/W skeds but the target is to be on by the Aug S/W. Can you therefore consider me QRT until further notice but I will advise as soon as I am QRV again. The replacement array is 16 x 4.0 w/l DL6WU`s with full polarity control. It has been a very big [& expensive] project but with the end hopefully in sight it has got to the exciting stage. It will replace a 4 x 9.2 w/l DL6WU horiz only array which has given me a lot of pleasure but I have learned that fixed polarity is a big disadvantage. Power will remain the same, [approx 600w at the array]. Tnx once again. Regards & 73`s, Trevor Benton, VK4AFL.

Anyway, I will report the following from this week: Tried RW1AW and DK3WG on numerous occasions with no results. RW1AW reported hearing me and sending O's. Tried with KB4CNI again. I heard him on two occasions he did not hear me, no QSO. While trying to work him, W7QX was hearing me FB. He could not transmit due to high VSWR. We arranged sked for later, and this time I could hear him, he could not hear me. Last night, I heard KB4CNI and sent O's, no QSO. W7QX nothing heard. W7HAH O copy completed QSO (finally)! I was getting discouraged! Heard K1FO loud! at his moonset. He did not hear me. Got a few lined up for today and I am advertising on Moon-Net for more. Should have 1296 on the air by next month SW. -- Thanks & 73 Mike, AL7OB 432 EME - 16 X 12 element NBS 2.2, K2RIW 700Watts, ARR .5dB, FT-736 WA8WZG: will be on 23cm this afternoon.. did not get on contest.. has not been active on eme much..
