Word has just been received that Alex RZ6DD (ex-RW1ZC/MM) will be
back working in our southern waters for the next several months. He
is presently at sea south of Port Elizabeth but has not yet had a
chance to set up his station and antennas...
Again this year he is operating aboard the Desert Diamond and his
tour of duty is expected to be between five and seven months. They
will be based out of Cape Town and working in an area from south of
Cape Town to East London in an area that covers approximately ten
grid squares. Depending on fishing conditions, every three to four
weeks they will go in to Cape Town for a short period to unload...

F/LA0BY/p Contest activity from JN24PE
There is a good chance I will participate in the next contest on
2/3 May on 144 MHz. The location will be the Mt Ventoux near
Avignon, in the locator JN24PE. Due to the high altitude of
almost 1900 m, I need a little bit of luck with the weather.
Equipment will be an IC-706 with PA about 120 W, and a single
9-ele-F9FT yagi. It is not a big station but the superb location
should help to achieve some long distance contacts. I hope I can
be reached by SMS (mob +33-6-86913388) at the site or in advance
via mail la0by"at"nrrl.no. 73, Stefan (F/LA0BY)
