There are some problems with open, public available downloads. Downloads are now available to registered users only. If you are not already registered, sign-up and all areas of this web site will be accessible. Enjoy my quite large archive with > 250 files. If you find it useful, consider, please, a small donation to your local Animal Shelter where the "allmighty dollar" is in the command. A dollar or two may be enough to keep a dog or cat alive for one more day, perhaps the day that someone will come to adopt them.

If my site helped to keep alive a single dog or cat, the huge time amount spent building up this site is not lost.

I recommend to use your callsign as user name, if available (I assume that my web is rather uninteresting to those who are not licensed and not involved in DX, CW and contesting). Do not use numbers or meaningless character garbage as your user name. Such entries are deleted without warning because it seems that no living person but a spambot is behind. Many thanks for understanding!

New Slackware package hamlib-1.2.8

Hamlib is a development effort to provide a consistent interface for programmers wanting to incorporate radio control in their programs. Hamlib is not a complete user application, rather, it is a software layer intended to make controlling various radios and other shack hardware much easier. This package is built with perl bindings to enable yfktest. Also, it contains the newest Ten-Tec Orion backend which fixes a bug with broken communication if the radio tuned to 7015.9.

5K0T Bajo Nuevo - Roncador Bank DXpedition

Plans are to operate from November 18 to 21 from Roncador Bank (IOTA NA-133), and between November 23 and December 02 from Bajo Nuevo (NA-132). Both reefs are part of San Andres region, HK0. The four person DXpedition will focus on low band operation, especially 160 meters, and will be operated by AA7JV, HA7RY, HK3JJH. (AA7JV and HA7RY were behind last year's VK9WWI Willis Islets operation.) The group will operate two stations from 160 to 6 m.

George, AA7JV, announces: Please note that we have been issued a new callsign: 5K0T

We are being told that this is to avoid possible conflict with a previous operation. The previously announced callsign 5J0T will not be used.

ZoneProp

Zone to Zone Propagation information will be available for the CQWW and other 2008-2009 contests from Radio Sport Canada at: http://www.radiosport.ca/ zoneprop/ ZoneProp uses an widely accepted propagation engine to determine the band on which a contestant in one CQ DX zone is likely to be able to contact a contestant in another CQ DX zone taking into account the current geomagnetic activity.

ZoneProp produces a 40 zone by 40 zone matrix that is updated hourly at approximately 20 minutes past the hour. The intersection between a row and column gives the band on which a contestant in the zone represented by the row is mostly likely able to contact an contestant in the zone represented by the column. The zone numbers in the left hand column are clickable. Once clicked the information for that zone is displayed in isolation above a map of CQ DX zones. The pages are refreshed every 10 minutes in order to capture hourly updates of the matrix.
