Thanks new one!!

Announcement:
Next H4ØFN DX-Expedition will take place December 22nd, 2012 - January 07th, 2013
Today, December 17th, 2012: Everything is packed and organized. Ready to go on Dec. 19th from Frankfurt Airport.
Please check the website of my friend Peter DG1FK. He will try to install an information corner until Christmas about up-to-date information of my expedition. I will be in contact with him during my Temotu stay via radio mail so he can publish every day the news about my activity. ----> www.mydarc.de/dg1fk/ and search for the "TEMOTU" button

Preferred QRG: 1825 KHz (My RX will go up & down 4 KHz); on other bands pse up 1 to 5 KHz: 3505 KHz, 7005 KHz, 14005 KHz, 18075 KHz, 21005 KHz, 24905 KHz, 28005 KHz. QRG subject to change according to QRM or local conditions.
Note for 160m: TX QRG for me starts on 1.825 MHz upwards. So I will call on 1825.1 KHz and listen 1 to 4 KHz up and down (RX window 1821-1829 KHz). Or listen to my advice during CQ-ing.
Note for 30m: Solomon Authority did not allow 30m activity for me. Still try to get also permission for 30m band. Unlike IARU Region 3 advice to permit 30m band the Solomon Government claims advanced local radio activity around 10 MHz between all the many Islands because of lack of telefon connections.
Note for 6 m: TX QRG for me starts on 52.0 MHz upwards. So I will call on 52.001 MHz and I will listen on 1 to 3 KHz up and also on 50.100 MHz in split.

Equipment planned:
ICOM IC 7000 (100 W)
Elecraft KX3 (10 W) spare TVR
PA WiMo HLV-300 Plus (280 W)
Power Supply MEANWELL 14 Volt / 100 A)
Power Supply WIMO 13,8 Volt / 30 A
Vertical Center Fed L-Antenna K2KQ for 160/80/40m (360°)
2-Element W8JK for 40-6m, fixed facing JA and EU (good for EU Short Pass and Long Pass)
1-Element DJ4VM Loop 4 x 5m for 20-6m (=Lazy H) fixed facing 45° America and 225° Australia
Antenna masts made of 12-14m long bamboo extended with 5m fibreglass fishing rod which fits into my suitcase

Please NO EMAILS to advice me to do SKEDS or QSY or asking whether QSO is in the log ! I DO NOT ANSWER !
H4ØFN = mainly CW (occasionally SSB)
Please read the advice given in: www.dx-code.org
________________________________________________________________________________________
QSL rules: There is no need to send direct QSL cards since all QSO will be confirmed automatically via buro free of charge. So for those who want to have the QSL card directly via mail please add minimum 3 US $ which includes a donation for children and suffering people of TEMOTU. Please no IRC !!! Hams who do not participate in the TEMOTU donation activity with less than 3 US $ will be excluded from the QSL direct delivery (only via buro).
A donation about 700 US $ was contributed in February 2012 to the TEMOTU hospital Director of Nursing Mr. Augustine Belve as a result of donations from direct QSL deliveries by H4ØFK and H4ØFN. Thanks for a few $ extra in your letters. Also remember that I do not take over any responsibility for lost letters or disappeared $ content, which happened rather often with letters.

About RST: Please use real and true RST reports.
NO commercial sponsors wanted for my personal ham pleasure.
Sponsors who want to support the TEMOTU children hospital without expecting commercial benefits are most welcome. Thanks to WiMo-Antennas/Germany and PERMO Electronics/Norway.
Thanks to Singapore Airlines for all the reliable flights in the past and for 10 kg extra free sports luggage.

Important: In order to avoid my QRT because of QRM please keep in mind that I will switch off my radio if there is no discipline on the band or if one guy is bothering me by doing QRM I will exclude his whole country for the rest of the operation. In February 2012 it happened with CT and LU.
Please reply only once or twice your call sign when I call "QRZ" or "UP" !
Do not hammer continiously your callsign 5-10 times even I'm being in QSO with others.
My call saying "UP 1/5" means please spread out 1-5 KHz up and stay on one frequency stable. I will go up and down within this section to pick out one after the other. Remember, I always do RX-QSY after each QSO and I do not answer a call on the same frequency I just worked before.
It makes no sense to give me advice via DX cluster or email since I don't have access to internet and I also do not follow your advice or answering questions on the band like QSY x-band?, QRV when?
My weapon to fight back against rule ignorers is NOT to send a QSL card.
More information and fotos about the last expeditions to TEMOTU are given on my webside www.hari-ham.com

I started as an SWL in 1959 on the short wave broadcast bands and in 1961. I came across a local amateur, G3ATF, when listening on an old
radiogram chassis with the medium waveband tweeked to recieve what turned out to be 160 metres, "Topband". My first introduction to an amateur
radio station was with Larry G3ATF and shortly after with G3JUL. As ISWL G-10143 I got interested in DX early on and started collecting QSL cards. I
got my licence on the 19th March 1964 when I was 17 years old and received the callsign G3SZG.

I am very grateful to Geoff G3JUL and Colin G3TA (ex G3MOT) for the hours they spent helping me with the RAE sylabus and with learning morse.

I spent the first year on 160 metres, AM and CW using a homebrew TX and an AR88D receiver. I then progressed to 80 and 40 metres AM and CW
adding a KW Geloso convertor in front of the AR88 and a Heathkit DX40 TX. Later I moved to SSB using a KW2000 with a KW600 linear. Many varied
antennas have been used over the years including a G3IMX designed 10/15/20 cubical quad, 3 el TA33jnr, KLM KT-34 4 el Yagi, 10 metre home
brew 3 el Yagi, Butternut HF9V +160 and currently just inverted V dipoles. I have also operated extensively as G3SZG/M, GW3SZG/M, GM3SZG/M and
5B4AHK/M

I am a founder member of EARS- The Echleford Amateur Radio Society and now an Honary life member.
I was one of the team of contest operators at the Science Museum (GB2SM) in London.
I am currently a member of the RSGB, CDXC, CARS (Cyprus Amateur Radio Society) and the Paphos Radio Club.
Over the years I have been QRV on most bands and modes but now tend to try and focus on CW.
I also spent 18 months in Waterford, Ireland with the call EI4VAK
I have lived in Cyprus for the last 11 years and am currently active on 40, 20, 15 and 12 metres mainly CW.
I have held the call 5B4AHK since the 19th October 2003. I also hold the contest call P3M.
I still have some QSL's from my previous QTH in Tsada (KM64FT) Cyprus (prior to 30 June 2011)
My QTH is about 75 metres asl and just under 1km from the coast with an excellent take-off to the south-west through north-west.
The QTH is located amongst Olive, Banana and Orange groves and is well irrigated from bore holes therefore the ground conductivity
is good
If you require a QSL card I strongly suggest that you use the OQRS facility below which cuts down the time to receive your card by 50%.
OQRS is provided by ClubLog which provides many useful facilities not found on other web based utilities.

More information you may find on my web site -http://www.4o4a.com. Here is some brief information:
I was born in Mostar, Bosnia & Herzegovina, on October 5th 1968, and had lived in a city called Capljina until 1992. In that pretty little town I came in touch with amateur radio in elementary school (TNX Ned,KG4FEJ!). I have got CEPT-I licence in 1982, and became a member of the local radio-club with call sign YU4ECP. The most of my activities in early days of my radio were CW and DX-ing with rather poor equipment (Kenwood TS-515, IC-745 and wires). After problems caused by the civil war in that region, I had to migrate with my family, so I have chosen Tivat town, in Montenegro. With a couple of friends we have renewed the local radio-club "Nikola Tesla" 4O6FPQ (ex 4N6FYU6FPQ). My first call sign was YU6YY and I used it from 1993 to 1997 when I changed it to YT6Y.
I live in Bar, on the Montenegrin coast of the Adriatic Sea.
With the independence of Montenegro, we've got the new prefix - 4O (Four Oscar). Today, my call sign is 4O4A.
Thanks for your time. CU in the air!
73, Dragan
