３Ｂ７Ｃ soon

3B7 - The 3B7C team expects to arrive on Isle du Sud, St. Brandon (AF-015)
on 4 September. Operations are not expected to commence until
midnight UTC on the 7th, by which time all stations and antennas
will have been assembled (however, the 6m beacon will be activated
at the earliest opportunity, so that 6m DXers can start to monitor
for possible openings).
Suggested frequencies are as follows:

There will be 12 stations (one on every band from 160 to 6 metres,
with second stations on 80 and 20 metres so that they can operate on
CW and SSB at the same time) with big monoband antennas on all bands
from 30 to 6 metres and verticals on the remaining bands.
Feedback messages can be sent to 3b7c@g3wgv.com: John, G3WGV will
read them and send a daily digest of key information to the team.
Logs will be uploaded to the 3B7C website on a daily basis. The
online log lookup will feature a lookup for your zone, showing what
times you, or others in your country/zone, have made contact with
3B7C on each band.
QSL via G3NUG, direct or bureau (bureau cards can be requested via
the webpage). The QSL manager for SWLs is Bob Treacher, BRS32525.

ＴＩ９ ２００８年２月に

TI9 - COCOS ISLAND, NA-012
The DXpedition scheduled for February 2008 is still seeking members to
join the team, especially experienced CW operators. Until now only four
HAMs confirmed their participation: TI7WGI, DH8WR, DL2AWG and EA1DR.
Right now they still try to figure out whether they take part in the
WPX RTTY Contest or the ARRL CW Contest (opinions can be mailed to
DH8WR@dh8wr.de). Since they can stay there for only ten days (including
the way back and forth) only one serious contest participation can be
planned during this time.
