I just received QSL from N4M (DXCC 110) after receiving the card from 4K
(DXCC 111) last week.
I would like to thank all guys from both expeditions for their efforts.
These and the cards
are well apprciated !
THANK YOU !

Hi all
I look for a circuit diagram or a service manual for a transmitter MRI-180, produced by ENI
All I have found upto now is a description of this transmitter, but no details.
Perhaps someone has a link?

Has anyone been able to successfully run two instances of MAP65 simultaneously? I have installed MAP65 in two different directories, but whichever copy of MAP65 is started second gets stuck on decode. (Windows 7)
My application is dual polarity using two different IQ streams from the Flex 6700 and SSDR software, one stream receiving vertical polarity and one stream horizontal. (The Flex SSRD software is not capable of producing one stream with both IQ channels. Even if it could, the phase between the two receivers in the 6700 is currently undefined.)
This is not adaptive polarity, but should help against Faraday lockouts. (Eventually I'll be running full adaptive polarity with a LinkRF IQ+, but need to build some more supporting infrastructure first.)
I also posted this question on the Yahoo WSJT group, but that group does not seem to be EME oriented. I will cross post any pertinent answers.
Thanks,

Hello,
I am getting close to take the RSI SNG (1987 vintage)2.4 M antenna out of
the garage and SWL EME to make sure the RX works.
Time is the enemey woth the QRL busy now. (BTW no complaits here)
I have a 250 Watt Siemens TWT from Per Dudek and I will be using that also.
Transverter is Kuhne with external LO (from my Trimble OD-Oscillator on 10
Mhz)
pictures are available upon request.
It has taken a long time to get this far!

The EI9E/P team will this year travel to west county Kerry to activate IO41 on 6m, 4m and 2m modes JT6M and FSK (and of course any tropo SSB that there might be) during the Perseids meteor shower.
As the EME conditions will be at very low degradation that week (9th to 14th August 2014) we will take 23cm equipment and one single Wimo 67ele antenna and run 200W on JT65.
We will be available on KST for MS contacts and will be on the HB9Q logger for the 23cm EME operation.
We would particularly welcome skeds for the EME operation.

Hi all
Has someone already received QSL cards for H44HP and YJ0HP?
I sent 3 times cards to Hermann and a letter: no answer
Does someone know what the matter is?

Currently on the last leg of the long trip home! Final updates and a few photos are
now on the website:

Final tally was 68 stations worked on 6m EME. MNI TNX to all who made the
operations a success! And thanks also to all those who spent the time to call, but
were not successful completing - you demonstrated the patience required for this
challenging undertaking, and I greatly appreciate your efforts and dedication. The
final report will summarize more details, but it is very evident that the number of
stations capable of and interested in 6m EME is increasing greatly! To all you who
just recently tried 6m EME, please to not be too discouraged if we did not complete -
I consider an elevated 8 element beam and 1000w to be a very small station, and was
surprised to successfully complete with so many other small stations. Your success
will definitely be better with the many larger 6m EME stations, or if you can add a
few dB gain to your station!
It also was quite clear that the extreme Es activity in NA and EU hampered the
success of horizon-only stations in those areas, and the high TEC during the daytime
over KH8 probably didn't help either. There is no doubt that the first week, when I
was operating moonrise to moonset in total darkness was certainly most effective from
such a tropical QTH. I certainly plan to return to an operating schedule more in
the "out of terrestrial propagation" seasons between TEP and Es for next year's
DXpedition to another rare DXCC.
Thanks again to everyone, and especially to those who contributed to the operation -
it is with your continued support that these annual 6m EME DXpeditions continue to
happen ;-) GL and VY 73, Lance

That's the same type of wall outlet used in Slovakia and every other continental European country I have visited. Just remember the difference between an "adapter" and a "converter". An adapter just adapts a US-style plug to fit a European socket (blade to pin); it does not change the voltage. A converter both adapts the plug and converts the wall outlet voltage from 230v to 115v.
The chargers for most modern laptops and cell phones work on both 115v and 230v, if so only an adapter is required. However, if the device only works on 115v, it likely will immediately be destroyed if connected to a European outlet via an adapter rather than a converter. Be careful and check the power supply/charger before plugging it in. If it says something like "INPUT 100-240v", you just need an adapter.
Some stores charge over $20 for an adapter, but you can get them on eBay and elsewhere for less than $1 (some have even jammed 2 small screwdrivers or large nails into the EU wall outlet and connected to the US plug with clip leads, but that's obviously dangerous). Converters vary in price depending on current handling capability.

In France there are 2 types of walloutlets, with and without protective ground. The Pin to blade adapter fits both. However if you have equipment with protective ground (3 pin) you need a special adapter.
The walloutlet looks like this : http://www.koersopfrankrijk.nl/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/frans_geaard_stop…
Mans is : 230V 50Hz
Like others said mni power supplies and chargers are variable mains input 100-240 Volt or even wider range. But take care and double check before you put your carger info the walloutlet. JMains here in Europe is more dangerous as the voltage is double as what you are used to !!

That is the nice thing about iPads and iPhones are that the charger works on anything. Of course you need the blade to "pin" adapter, unless the hotel is modern and has the universal outlets

Dear Friends
I want to congratulate the organizers and all the participants already
register for the 16th EME conference in France.
Today day I saw the list of delegates already register and we are more than
100 participants!! Great!!.
Regardless of the efforts of the well-known small group of "Talibans"
invoking the open sabotage of the conference many months ago I think we will
enjoy, once again, an excellent conference in France, probe of that is the
big amount of delegates already registers, regardless of the efforts of a
small dissident group of renegades and frustrated people.
I want to extend my greetings to all and I hope we will have the time to
talk and enjoy together an excellent conference.
Looking forward to see one time more everybody in France
73 de Alex, HB9DRI
