Bernie, ZS4TX informs via DXNews.com that he will be active on EME as A21TX from Botswana, on April 23-26, 2025.
A21TX KH22, Kasane, Botswana
23 April 2025 Late afternoon/Evening 2M and 70CM TEP tests towards EU.
24 April 2025 EME - Moonrise to Moonset 2M/70CM. TEP 2M/70CM.
25 April 2025 No EME. TEP 2M/70CM.
26 April 2025 EME - Moonrise to Moonset 2M/70CM. TEP 2M/70CM.
A2, Botswana was activated on 6M, 2M, 70CM and the microwave bands during the A21EME EME DXpedition in October 2019 so the demand for 2M and 70CM EME contacts may be low although the A21EME log shows no NA stations worked on 70CM. The idea is to alternate between 2M and 70CM to work everyone that still needs A2. Band changes will be advertised on the relevant HB9Q chat.
Direct QSL's for any of the calls can be requested from Lins, PA3CMC. Contributions will be gladly accepted and can be directed via Paypal to Lins, PA3CMC at info@pa3cmc.nl Please include your callsign to be listed as a contributor.
All direct paper QSL requests and contributors will receive LoTW confirmation as well.
Any changes to the schedule will be communicated via the relevant HB9Q chats, and/or QRZ.COM pages.
All the accommodation has been pre-booked and paid so the dates are not subject to change unless something unplanned comes up.
Particular attention will be given to marginal and short common Moon windows. Please feel free to send an email to indicate such windows that will require specific attention.
A portable QO-100 SAT Station provided by PA3CMC will be used to relay messages in case there are no internet coverage available.
RS-44 satellite contacts may also be considered if the EME activity is low enough.
No 23/13/6CM activity is planned.
