UKSMG. Regarding use of the announcement page, its not a chat page.
Please do not use it for passing personal messages. Chris, G3WOS
g3wos@uksmg.org
Well, I think Chris is right. But I guess we all like a good chat -
even if the band is closed. But it does not need to be at this fine
announcement page. KB3CWS have made an formidable chat page delicated
to 50 MHz. Personally I have had many a good chat about 6 meters in
there. So I recommand to try out this URL;

73 de Andy, DJ7IK (DK0MM, 3V8BB, 5A2A, TS7N)
From the SM7AED internet "6-metre info" comes following information;
India, VU. We are operating on CW and SSB modes in India. I was infor-
med by the secretary and President of Amateur Radio Society of India,
that permission is granted for cw and ssb. The written document is
awaited since last one month. In the meanwhile we are lobbying for a
continuous segment from 50.000 to 50.200 at least. I hope that we will
be permitted secondary status. I am informed that this band is allotted
to Land mobile use (army). I don't hear any VU activity on the band
from land mobile users. I hope that ultimately that we can get a
segment back on a permanent basic. I think that we need some pressure
on the govt. from IARU in this matter. 73 Raj VU2ZAP. ggrk@vsnl.com
Jamaica, 6Y6B. With great disappointment I must tell you that 6Y4B has
been terminated by management at the resort before even getting on the
air. 73 Chris Patterson, w3cmp@aol.com
Agalega. 3B6RF. The 3B6RF DXpedition, originally planned for 8-24 Oc-
tober and cancelled at the very last minute for reasons beyond the
operators' control, has been officially rescheduled to take place in
May 2001 (16 days starting on the 5th or the 6th). Some members of the
original Agalega 2000 team will not be able to participate in the new
adventure; if interested in joining the crew please e-mail Hans-Peter
Blaettler, HB9BXE (hb9bxe@pilatusnet.ch). (425dxn)
