CARTE QSL : ENVOI "DIRECT" UNIQUEMENT 
FEDALA (Mohammedia): Les pêcheurs et les marchands espagnols, génois et vénitiens commerçaient avec FEDALA les XIVe XVe siècles. Au XVIIe siècle, le port de  «Fédale» ou "l'isle de Fédala" servait de refuge momentané  aux légers bâtiments des corsaires de Salé, poursuivis par les frégates du roi de France.
FEDALA a été renommée Mohammedia le 25 juin 1960 par le roi Mohammed V restaurateur de l'indépendance marocaine, à l'occasion de la pose de la première pierre de la raffinerie de pétrole Samir. Cette nouvelle appellation indique le caractère moderne de cette cité.
Mohammedia est maintenant en passe de rejoindre Casablanca, qui n'est située qu'à une vingtaine de kilomètres au sud. C'est  également une  grande station  balnéaire, une marina, un champ de courses et  des golfs royaux.
Mohammedia jouit d'un climat méditerranéen caractérisé par  des hivers doux et humides et des étés chauds et secs. Sa proximité à l'océan atlantique tend à rafraîchir la ville en été et à la réchauffer en hiver. Elle profite largement du soleil durant toute l'année.
La Période de mai à octobre est relativement chaude caractérisée par un air sec avec des températures moyennes maximales de 23-29 ° C et minimales de 14-19 ° C,  mais la température dépasse souvent les 32 ° C et atteint parfois les 35 ° C .
La Période de novembre à avril est douce et humide avec des pluies fréquentes. Les Températures maximales moyennes sont de 20-23 ° C et les minimales de 9-12 ° C, cependant la température peut facilement baisser aux alentours de 2 ° C tôt le matin ou atteindre les 27 ° C  pendant quelques jour d'hiver.
La grande partie des précipitations  qu'enregistre la ville a  lieu entre novembre et avril. La moyenne annuelle est autour de 400 mm . Ces précipitations sont généralement des  averses  de pluies passagères, mais parfois des pluies torrentielles et abondantes, voire des orages. Aucune chute de neige n'a jamais été enregistrée dans la ville. (Wikipédia)

                                      MERCI POUR LA VISITE DE MA PAGE

    C5DX (2016) - DXpedition and demonstration of amateur radio to school students in The Gambia
    I will be returning to The Gambia and operating C5DX between Friday 12th February - Friday 19th February 2016.
    The plan is to operate CW from our hotel in Banjul as well as demonstrate SSB from Farafenni Senior Secondary High School. Most of the operation will be CW and I hope to make around 2000 QSOs in between duties whilst on this school trip. The station will consist of a K3 (100W) and wire antennas. The location of antennas is not perfect due to many surrounding palm trees and buildings, so I predict my signals will be S3-S7 with most.
    Plan to operate on 40m - 10m. Might try 60m. Will usually be low in band, but will avoid any large DXpeditions.
    Operation will be spit - usually listening 1 UP. As usual, please respect the DX Code and only call when I come back to you.
    Look forward to working you.
    QSL either LoTW, Direct (NO IRCs - only green stamps) or BURO. Logs will be uploaded AFTER the trip.



    Previous C5DX DXpedition - 2015
    LOG UPLOADED TO Club Log on 21/02/2015  https://secure.clublog.org/logsearch/C5DX
    LOG UPLOADED TO LoTW on 1/3/2015
     QSL CARDS NOW AVAILABLE - please NO IRCs for direct cards. Green stamps or correct postage if in UK.
    Between 13th - 20th February 2015 I was in The Gambia on a school trip.
    Details of trip: I am the headteacher of Sandringham School, St. Albans (www.sandringham.herts.sch.uk) and since 2008 we have developed a strong link with Farafenni Senior Secondary High School in The Gambia. The link has been focussed on developing the curriculum (science, maths, English and humanities) with various staff visiting from each school and two visits involving students. On this trip, we took three staff and five students. We have also sponsored a number of students through the school who would ovtherwise not have been able to be educated. This costs around £100 for their four years at the high school. This was my second visit and I wanted to demonstrate Amateur Radio to school students and staff as part of our scientific development of the curriculum.
    School hall project: We have also been fudnraising to provide a school hall for Farafenni School. So far we have raised £10k and the exterior structure of the school is now complete (see picture below). We need around £5k more to complete the project, so if anyone is interested in helping out with some sponsorship this would be really helpful. Please e-mail me if you are keen to support this worthwhile project.
    Callsign: the callsign, C5DX was requested and issued by the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority (PURA) in The Gambia. They were very helpful.
    Equipment: K3 and small switched mode PSU.
    Antennas: Home made 40m-10m Windom,  50m of RG58 coax, 10m telescopic fiberglass pole. Thank you to everyone who managed to hear my signals - they were weak due to limited antenna space surrounded by many tall palms and buildings. Apex of windom was around 10m with ends at 2m.
    Operation details:  Between 13th and 15th February and 18th to 20th February operated from Badala Park Hotel, Serrekunda - by the coast. Between 16th - 17th February operated from Farafenni High School, Farafenni. This is about 180km inland from Banjul.
    Logging: Used an i-Pad running the Mircules HAM QuickLog app. This worked well and was a convenient method of logging for a small operation like this.
    Statistics: Made a total of 2007 QSO's with limited operation time around business. 73 DXCC and 267 band slots in total.
    Reports: I wanted to provide accurate reports (not 599!) This slowed things down because I think people thought I was struggling to copy; this was not the case - I received well even if you were 519! No need to repeat calls etc if I have it correct first time.
    Split operation: Used UP1 for most of the time in an attempt to keep any interference to other stations to a minimum. This did slow things down somewhat and on the last day I simply listened UP which meant that some of the weaker stations could be picked out if they called on a clear frequency.
    QSLing: I will upload the log to LoTW as soon as the certificate is issued by ARRL (this has been requested). Will also produce a QSL card for those who would like a hard copy. Please send SAE and sufficient postage (IRCs NOT ACCEPTED - cards will be returned via Buro)
    Really enjoyed the pile-ups and hope you managed to get through at some point.
    Photographs:

    Station - K3 and i-Pad logging

    Windom antenna (you can just see the 4:1 balun and one leg of the dipole) - notice how it is surrounded by some pretty tall palm trees.

    This photograph shows one of the legs of the windom - as it slopes down behind the hotel complex to about 2m above ground level. North is directly through the building!

    The windom and a 15m dipole erected at Farafenni High School - this was in the clear and about 7m high.

    Our group from Sandringham with staff from Farafenni School. Mr. Jallow (Headteacher of Farafenni School is sixth from the left). Alan - G4DJX third from the right.

    The school hall project in process - with walls and roof completed. This will be the largest school hall of any secondary school in the Gambia when completed - 35m long and 15m wide.
