Q-Team activates SV5 on 432MHz to 10GHz September 2021

by dan＠hb9q.ch

We are very happy to announce our next Q-Team DXpedition! Due to Covid-19 we had to postpone twice our DXpedition to Rhodes, the mayor island of the Dodecanes. Although the situation still isnt perfect, we will be on the island for 14 days (from 27. September to 11. October 2021), for some sightseeing/vacation and of course EME on 432 (QRP only), 1296, 23xx, 3400, 5760 and 10xxx MHz. The house on the southeast side of the island is booked, so are the flights from Zurich to Rhodes and back. Team members are Sam HB9COG, Dan HB9CRQ and Sue Dans YL. Our QTH is in KM36xa, directly at the beach. So, MR should be perfect! For MS we expect some 10 to 25° elevation due to houses nearby, some trees and the mountains at the horizon (we will only know exactly once we are there). But in anyway, we should have good enough MS to work the US-Westcoast. Here our operation plan: 28. September 2320.100 Q65C SV5/HB9COG 1st RX Own Echo, 20.45z until 09.15z (29.

However only with big-guns and after the pile-up on Q65 is worked.

On 6 and 3cm Q65D with Doppler Control (Constant Frequency On Moon and if necessary Full Doppler to DX Grid). Hopefully more people take advantage of automated Doppler control. Especially on 6 and 3cm it is a MUST for successful QRP operations. Well have internet access. During our activities well be stand-by on the HB9Q band loggers. We also will check our e-mails several times a day. How big needs your station to be to work us?
