| Essentially all the
equipment for the SW station will arrive on St. Helena on about Aug 13.
A few days later, work will begin to dig the hole and pour the concrete
for the foundation for the 12.5 meter tall tower from the "Hummel
Al-Tower" company in Germany. By Aug 15, the special, 3-element,
mono-band beam antenna will have been constructed by the "OptiBeam"
company in Germany. The antenna will travel with me on the ship to St.
Helena at the end of September. I plan to arrive on the island on Oct
15. I also plan to be active in the local evenings on the amateur radio bands in SSB with 100 Watts and a beam (I like the 20 Meter band) and hope to be able to use the call-sign "ZD7PU". Naturally any QSL cards for amateur radio contacts with me should be sent via the regular QSL-bureau or directly to me in Germany (with Return Postage). Robert Kipp direct Aug 08 and via Toshimishi Ohtake These four broadcasts are also regarded as special programmes in connection with the 50th anniversary of the DSWCI on 18 Nov 2006. The DSWCI will verify correct reception reports on these programmes by our special DSWCI QSL-card, if return postage (1 IRC, 1 U.S. Dollar or 1 Euro) is enclosed. Please send your reports to DSWCI, Tavleager 31, DK-2670 Greve, Denmark. (Ed) |
