C5, GAMBIA
Operators Arliss/W7XU, his XYL Holly/N0QJM, Ed/W0SD and his XYL Edith/W0OE are headed to The Gambia between June 26th and July 5th, for the 6 meter sporadic E DXpedition season. The callsign requested for is C5E, which they will pick up when they arrive. Their primary focus will be 6 meters on 50.103 MHz. They will have a beacon on during all sporadic E hours listening for stations calling. When there is an opening, please call as directed. Their location will be at Cape Point and they are right on the ocean. There will be some HF SSB/CW operations planned for late night non-Sporadic E hours. There is also RTTY operations planned con- currently with the six meter operations on 17 and 20 meters. The Grid Square will be IK13ql. Ed states, "We do not need your grid square. We have lost many contacts in the past on six meters as signals have faded out before we get a report, so it is very wise to concentrate on sending 'JUST' our signal report rather than grid square!" QSL via W7XU.
