Next month, 3rd to 6th july, Eduardo, CO8LY will try to activate the
grid FK19 and FL10! First I will activate the grid FK19 and if my
economic situation allows it I will be in the grid FL10. I use for
6 meters an Alinco DX70th with 100 watt in 6 mtrs and the antenna it
will be of wire but not yet I have any diagram to build it. I at home
have an antenna of 5 elem yagi for 6 mtrs but I am not able to to take
it to the DXpeditions because I go to places where there is a lot of
mountain and the yagi weighs a lot. My QSL manager is EA7ADH and confirm
QSL only direct. I need you to ask to the friends of VHFnet if somebody
has a diagram of a filter ITV to avoid the ITV of the 6 mtrs in the
Channel 2 of the TV. I need filter diagram for the equipament of 6 mtrs
or for the TV, any information it is I very useful. Eduardo. CO8LY

Jan, PA4JJ, will be active as 9A/PA4JJ between June 22nd and July 12 on
50 MHz from JN65SG. He will be the camping at Ulika in Porec on the MAINLAND,
so no IOTA. He will try to use the JT6M mode on 6 meters, but he has no beam
with him only the G5RV (which tunes ok on 6) and his FT897. Grid is JN65sg.
Also, there will be activity on other bands, of course.
