Iceland, TF. Limited QRP operation in TF: I'll be on a camping holiday
in Iceland (TF/G4PCS/P) from 30th June to 12th July inclusive. I'll be
travelling each day, and over the holiday will go through quite a few
squares, with GPS for accuracy. Radio time is going to be VERY limited
(due to holiday schedule and limited power availability), and also VERY
QRP (FT817 on internal battery power, 6m dipole). Please don't be upset
if I'm not heard at all... it's a real possibility ! Best bet for a
contact is if there's propagation during TF evening time, after the
day's camp is established. Having just one contact would make my day!

Beacon Support - EA/CT/ZB. A QSP from Arne SM7AED, says; 48250 Madrid
(Navacerrada) TV is scheduled to QRT 31 July 2001. We all know how
important it has been to us as an indicator. Jose, EH7KW, has spent the
past year organizing a group to put a 'replacement' 6 meter beacon on
the air from EA/CT/ZB. He has contacted a group of CT amateurs who have
found an accessible high elevation site with AC power and a tower. They
have been in touch with their licensing authorities and have a call and
a frequency assigned. While 250kw is difficult to replace, they plan to
direct maximum erp toward north and Central America. Several amateurs
have pledged financial support. More is needed. Most important, keyer/
rig/antenna equipment is still needed. There have been no volunteers
for these. This note is a request to all of you to help in any way you
can. I am not a go-between for this project. If you can help or if you
have further ideas, please contact Jose, EH7KW directly ea7kw@arrl.net
This is NOT a secret project. Spread the word.

RTYY and PSK-31 is also possible. QSL direct to LA4LN (Tom V. Segalstad
P.O. Box 15 Kjelsas, N-0411 Oslo, Norway). Tom reports that postal
rates will suffer a 25% increase effective 1 July and from that date
one green stamp will not cover the postage for one QSL card from
