8P6DR MISSING RTTY LOGS ---> There is a problem with logs for the 2015
activity, Richard G3RWL (8P6DR) reports. Some RTTY QSOs were lost in the
backup process. If you think you had an RTTY QSO with 8P6DR during the
following dates: 25 March to 2 April, 4-8 April and 9 April (from 16.22
UTC) to 13 April, but the QSOs do not appear in Club Log, then please
contact him immediately (g3rwl[@]amsat.org). After a few days (to correct
any broken, or missing, callsigns) he will upload to LOTW. Later amendments
will not get onto LOTW. Other information is on his qrz.com page. [TNX
G3RWL]
NEPAL ---> After the devastating earthquake that hit Nepal on 25 April,
14205 and 14215 kHz are being used by controlled nets for emergency radio
traffic. Also 14300 kHz might be used, so please keep these frequencies 5
kHz clear of all transmissions unless you are directly involved in contacts
with Nepal.
"The ARRL along with other groups around the world are trying to respond to
the request for VHF handhelds and other equipment which has been passed
over the 20m emergency nets", IARU reported on 30 April. "However the
process to get even basic emergency supplies and Search and Rescue Teams
into the area is hampered by restricted capacity at Kathmandu Airport and
Customs procedures".
OC-274 ---> Departure was delayed for 12 hours, and YB4IR and YB8RW left
Ambon around 2 UTC on 27 April. Apparently bad weather conditions prevented
them from landing for quite some time, as they started activity as YB4IR/8
and YB8RW/p from Pulau Bingkudu, Penyu Islands (OC-274, new one for IOTA)
on 29 April around 5 UTC. Then "a bad storm hit the islands", and they were
off the air for over 24 hours as they "spent the entire day drying their
equipment". Operations resumed around 8 UTC on 1 May. The latest report on
https://lucipara2015.wordpress.com adds that Imam and Din now plan to stay
on the island until 3 May.
