ciao a tutti!

sono un felicissimo possessore di MARK V con inrad RF e da tempo mi attira moltissimo il PRO III ma non avendolo mai provato non so se un cambio valga la pena, perciò chiedo a chi abbia avuto entrambi questi apparati quali siano i reali pro e contro e se effettivamente passare al pro III sia un miglioramento.

Preciso che a me piace principalmente il DX e voglio iniziare ad utilizzare i modi digitali, che mi interessano molto. Per motivi di posizione e spazio lavoro solo in 80/40/20 metri con una windom e non posso istallare direttive di alcun genere.

ringrazio sin da ora chi vorrà darmi maggiori dati in modo che possa valutare se davvero un cambio sia azzeccatto.

73 Mauro

OK,grazie

5 euro da versare entro il 31 gennaio

Qualcuno sa se ci sono variazione o nuove normative?
rimane invariato il prezzo di 5 € da versare entro il 15 gennaio?
grazie

Dopo un periodo di prova di circa 10 giorni riporto sul mio sito www.ik4yaz.it la prima recensione fatta sul "campo" dello yaesu ft 450, ne seguirà un altra più dettagliata appena avrò fatto prove comparative più dettagliate.

the new Neumayer 3 Base. The modules of the new station are on board of
the supply vessel NAJA ARCTICA which got stuck in the pack-ice 18 km off
the shelf-ice break. The vessel can be visited by skidoos, but the final
unloading position has not been reached yet and thus the schedule for
mounting the modules is getting pretty tight. Felix, who is part of the
assembling team, thus has some free time for ham radio besides his other
duties. The QSL route for DP0GVN Neumayer 2 clubstation is via DL5EBE
and a general new QSL will be printed soon as we expect another operator
(Torsten, DD1TG, from BGR) later this season. [F5NQL]

New Prefix for Bosnia-Herzegovina Officially Announced -

In response to a request from the Ministry of Communications and
Transport of Bosnia and Herzegovina in August, the International
Telecommunication Union (ITU) withdrew the call sign prefix allocation
T9A-T9Z for Bosnia and Herzegovina and made a new allocation, E7A-E7Z.
The change was made initially on a provisional basis under authority of
the ITU Secretary-General and was confirmed by the 2007 World
Radiocommunication Conference to be effective November 17, 2007.

According to International Amateur Radio Union (IARU) Secretary David
Sumner, K1ZZ, the Ministry of Communications and Transport (BiH) held a
press conference in Sarajevo on December 18 to formally announce the
change. Minister Dr Bozo Ljubic explained the desirability of changing
a prefix that initially was allocated during wartime and how it was now
being replaced with one that has no connection to that troubled time;
similar steps have been taken with regard to passports, drivers'
licenses and automobile registrations, he said. Ljubic also observed
that the costs associated with the change were minimal compared to the
benefits.

Amateur Radio station licenses bearing E7 prefixes will be issued
beginning in January 2008, and the use of other prefixes will be phased
out.

Sumner and IARU Region 1 President Ole Garpestad, LA2RR, of Norway, were
invited to speak at the press conference. Accompanying them was IARU
Region 1 Executive Committee member Nikola Percin, 9A5W, of Croatia.
They expressed congratulations and support for the change, eliminating
an issue that has complicated relations among the radio amateurs of
Bosnia-Herzegovina.

Also invited to speak was Miroslav Nikse, President of the Union of
Radioamateur Associations of Bosnia and Herzegovina (URAS), a recently
formed umbrella organization of amateur radio associations based in
different parts of the country. He thanked those involved in promoting
the change. In his remarks, Dr Ljubic pledged support from the Ministry
of Communications and Transport to the umbrella organization for the
development of Amateur Radio repeater and digital networks that would
cover the whole of the country, enhancing emergency communications
capabilities. [ARRL]

J5C by F6KOP team, press release -

Hi friends,

All is quite ready to go.

The team members, located near Paris have spent a lot of time to package
the antennas, coaxial and guys, the four PA's and five transceivers.

Are also in the box all the micellaneous pieces of gear, like
connectors, solder and irons, measure gear, laptops and so on.

The laptops net and all interfaces have been controlled and tested, they
all run well. The Cat systems are on also.

Frank F4AJQ, said me on Xmas Eve, he has in hand both licences and
flight tickets.

Know they had to pay 4 licences; One for J5C, the official DXpédition
call sign, and one for each operator's different nationalities (1 for F,
OE and K).

And to answer some inquiries, the expedition callsign will be:

J5C (Julliett five charlie).

They all regret Serge, F6AML's missing, They have all warm welcomed Jean
Marc, F8IXZ who accepted to join them at the last moment.

They will depart from Roissy CDG on January 11th to Bissau, then
transshipment towards Bubaque Island late in the afternoon.

Even with the great knowledge and skill about mounting antennas
(Spiderbeams, verticals and wires) and settling stations, they gained in
previous expeditions, it seem very difficult to expect the first signals
before 1500 utc on January 12th.

The pilote stations, Thierry, F4TTR and Bruno, F5AGB, will look at these
operations on real time and put the first signal on the air, directly on
the various clusters (They will have just to play Enter on the
keyboard).

During the expedition Pascal, F5JSD, will try to send information every
day to be forwarded on Internet.

To join the expedition please only via: pilots@j5c.eu

Frank, F4AJQ, expedition leader and all of the crew members want to say
Many Thanks, to all of you who sent donations, those who sent their
contributions and encouragements; thanks to all of those who signed our
guest book.

Your help is always very appreciated.

For other information, have a look on the bilingual French & English
languages J5C's website at: http://www.j5c.eu/

To all of our friends, have a nice end of 2007 and warm and best wishes
for 2008.

Rendez Vous from Guinée Bissau, January 12th to 21st.

For the J5C team

ts 930 riparabile?
salve a tutti e complimenti a Mauro per il sito.
Il mio problema è questo, ho un kenwood ts 930 che mi da i seguenti problemi:
1) - A circa 5 o 10 minuti dall'accenzione il frequenzimetro se selezionate alcune bande si spegne, togliendo si l'rx che il tx, selezionando un'altra banda il frequenzimetro si riaccende con tutte le funzioni dell'apparato.
2) - Il frequenzimetro in alcuni segmenti dei numeri non è illuminato come il resto.
3) - all'accenzione si sente un ronzio sulla parte alimentatrice.
Conviene aggiustarlo? è stato il mio primo rtx e vi sono affezionato
un grazie a tutti coloro che vorranno rispondermi 73 ennio

Ciao a Tutti

La presente per informarvi che dal 18 al 24 Febbraio 2008 durante il 5° ANTARCTIC ACTIVITY WEEK sarò attivo con il nominativo speciale II3ANT.

QSL VIA ARI o DIRETTA (con busta preindirizzata e preaffrancata)

Buon Natale e Ricco 2008

Come ormai tradizione, in occasione della maratona "Telethon 2007" dedicata alla raccolta di fondi per la ricerca scientifica sulle malattie genetiche, la Sezione CISAR di Roma rinnova la propria partecipazione a supporto di questa importante iniziativa. Per tale occasione, nei giorni 14 e 15 dicembre 2007, alcuni Soci della Sezione effettueranno collegamenti con il nominativo speciale "IIØTH", rilasciato anche quest'anno per l'occasione dal Ministero delle Comunicazioni. Le comunicazioni avverranno principalmente sulle gamme HF dei 40 ed 80 metri nei modi SSB e CW. La realizzazione del collegamento con il suddetto nominativo darà facoltà di richiedere il relativo diploma, realizzato per "suggellare" la partecipazione a questa questa manifestazione.
Il diploma potrà essere richiesto inviando un contributo di 10 euro sul conto corrente postale intestato alla Sezione CISAR di Roma nr. 49562549 (causale "Diploma Telethon 2007"). Coloro che avessero piacere di inviare la propria cartolina QSL, potranno inviarla alla Casella Postale 4001 di Roma. Il ricavato, come tradizione, sarà interamente donato alla fondazione Telethon, quale contributo dei radioamatori italiani.

nella sezione download puoi caricare o linkare tutti i video che vuoi nell'area video/audio

non sapevo dove mettere il video e quindi approfitto di questo spazio

Finalmente una grande Macchia solare speriamo sia la prima di una grande serie

Il server telnet risponde a clx.noantri.org (porta 23) ed ha svariati circuiti aperti, primari e di back-up, con altri nodi appartenenti alle reti AR-CLUSTER


Per chi vuole avere, con Internet Explorer o Mozilla Firefox, gli ultimi spot sotto il naso con una miridiade di filitri a contorno, allora http://webclx.noantri.org


Per gli attivatori di castelli e most wanted, che usano il PDA o un cellulare evoluto (tipo Nokia N95) allora il link per gli spot a "formato di schermo mobile" è: http://mobile.noantri.org

In Allegato la previsione per la Propagazione per il mese di Dicembre 2007 di Mario I2MQP e di Gwyn Williams, G4FKH

73 e Buoni Dx
