P5/4L4FN QRT effective 2002 November 22
<p>I just received word from Ed, P5/4L4FN that the unfortunate and worst
<br>possible thing has just happened.
<p>Friday evening, 2002 November 22, Ed was called into a meeting with
the
<br>"Radio Regulation Board" without any explanation, he was politely asked
<br>to quit all transmissions and pack all his radio equipment. Saturday,
he
<br>spent all day on the roof disassembling his antennas and packing boxes.
<br>At 2:30pm on of the government officials came by, sealed all the boxes
<br>and when he leaves on December 10 for his two weeks R&R he is to
take
<br>everything with him out of the country.
<p>This really hits the ham community hard. I for one was looking forward
<br>to a satellite contact on AO-40. I know that many of you were still
<br>awaiting your first QSO.
<p>Ed will keep all the equipment for his next duty station which will
be
<br>another really good spot. Any money received from now on will be donated
<br>to help ZL1AMO's emergency air ambulance trip from Fiji back home.
<p>The logs should be 100% complete online by Monday. I will do up some
<br>stats of the DXpedition as time permits in the next week.
