FOUR BRAVE MEN CHALLENGE THE ROCKY GULF OF FINLAND

MARKET REEF, OJ0B QRV FROM SEPTEMBER 18 - 29, 2008

Yes, you got it right, for eleven days temperatures in this Far North region will have dropped to some 6C. Spending almost a fortnight in a damp and cold lighthouse takes some determination. No shower and no reasonable sanitary facilities available.

OH2PM, Pertti; OH2BO, Ilmo; OH3JR, Henry and OH0RJ, Lars will attempt a landing this early Friday morning. They will run two Yaesu FT-1000MPs and Alpha 91B amplifiers. They have built a special array for 160M, hoping for some early propagation into the United States. Also, they will run a SteppIR beam, a Butternut HF-2V and an assortment of wires.

During this coming weekend, Pertti, OH2PM will be running the Scandinavian Activity Contest (CW single-op all-band), and the following weekend the same thing on SSB http://www.sk3bg.se/contest/sacnsc.htm. It will be the 50th Anniversary Scandinavian Activity Contest, with a special offering of diplomas by the Swedish organizers. A special SAC 50th Anniversary Home Page is launched at http://www.qrq.se/sac/

During the two contest periods, the other station will be exclusively on 160M as well as on the WARC bands.
