Antennas will go down tomorrow afternoon and the team will leave
for Spain in their local evening.
Operations will now concentrate on those areas where S0 is much in
demand. The team is aware of sunrise/sunset times and thanks those
who have sent suggestions etc. through the pilots.
Europeans are requested to be patient and stop calling when S05X
looks for stations from specific areas: thanks in advance for your
co-operation.
One station is devoted to 6 metres and a beacon is active on 50110
kHz. If you copy the beacon, please alert the operators on HF, so
that they in their turn can inform the person in charge of 6m.
The pilot stations are Maurizio, I1-21171/IZ1CRR
(i121171@425dxn.org) and Mauro, I1JQJ (i1jqj@425dxn.org); please
send your messages to the both of them and put "S05X" in the
subject line.
Good Luck in working the DXpedition, de
Maurizio Bertolino, IZ1CRR and Mauro Pregliasco, I1JQJ
