Starting on May 15th in the afternoon until May 23rd, a French team led by Tony, F8ATS, will go to St Mary's, Isles of Scilly (EU-011, WW Loc. IN69UV). On May 15th (2000z-2230z) they plan to be QRV from Penzance (WW Loc. IN79JX), and the Lizard Point (Cornwall) lighthouse (ARLHS ENG-068), both on 144 MHz (50W and 2x4el) and 40m (50W with battery and mobile vertical antenna).
They will board a boat May 16th which will take them to St. Mary's
Island, Isles of Scilly (EU-011) and they hope to be active the same
day, in the evening. Between May 15th until May 18th, focus will be on
VHF and up, using CW and SSB. On the other days the traffic will be
shared HF and VHF and up, from St. Mary's Island (EU-011), and the
Scilly Lighthouse (ARLHS ENG-146, LH-0408, WW Loc. IN69UV). End of the
expedition on May 23rd, in the morning.
On the way they will be either F5KEE/p or /m and M/F5KEE/p or /m from
mainland England (EU-005, WLOTA LH-1841). Frequencies will be given
closer to the expedition.
QSL via the bureau or direct to Tony, F8ATS (see QRZ.com). Dont forget
SAE + 1 valid new IRC or 1 USD for CEE and 1 valid new IRC or 2 USD for
elsewhere.
