for controlled tests very soon. The beacon will TX on 50.020 MHZ, and
it's operation is likely to be sporadic until TX tests are complete.
More details will be released in due course. We are looking for a ver-
tical aerial for the beacon, and until we find one, the temporary ae-
rial will be directional. Tony - GW4VEQ gw4veq@breathemail.net (QSP de
UKSMG ann.)

Chad, TT8. Look for Eric, F5JKK, to be active starting the 2 nd or 3 rd
week of May. He has asked for the callsign TT8JE again. Eric prefers 6
meters using and FT 847 w/100 watts (maybe more!) into a 5 element Yagi
antenna. He states to listen for his CQ on 50.110 kHz and will begin
listening on 50.200 MHz (5 to 10 up). His operations will be mainly CW,
but there will be some SSB if conditions are good. Eric will be running
a beacon using 25 watts on 50.096 kHz. The beacon will send: VVVVV DE
TT8JE JK72MC - (5'') and break (5''). IMPORTANT ! Eric reports that he
worked many stations in 1998, however, in 2001, he states, "NO dupe or
I'll cancel old QSO. Listening carefully on my frequency, don't loose
time for you and all others (Sample: When I say Alpha Bravo NO others
like Alpha Kilo...). Education and courtesy, no need to say more." Eric
will be on HF using the same radio but with a R7000, dipoles and loop
antennas. His modes of operation will be RTTY/PSK31 and will try SSTV
and CW. He suggests to look for him on the WARC bands and especially
on 10 meters. QSL via F6FNU. (QSP de OPDX #508)
