Updates from the Peter I DXpedition team!

16th February - 2355UTC

As we don't want to interfere with this weekend's ARRL CW contest, we've decided that we'll only work on the WARC bands on SSB and RTTY.

We are dismantling OP Shelter B and moving two stations into OP A; our intent is to move the OP B shelter and much equipment back abord the DAP Mares tomorrow.

The snow storm on Tuesday left snow drifts up to one meter high around camp

Tonight is our last night on EME; we've made a very gratifiying thirty QSOS on moonbounce!

The WX forecast does not look good for early next week; it's already getting colder and more windy here now.

If the weather situation turns out as expected, we may be shutting down operations on Sunday - we'll have more information as we get closer to that date.

 

73's to all from The Peter I team!

3Y0X Operating Frequencies

It should go without saying, but: We will always be transmitting on/near the indicated frequency below and listening up the band (spread to be announced by the operator). Please do NOT call on our transmitting frequency!

Band SSB CW Digital
10 28475 28023 28092 (Listening up!)
12 24987 24893 24928 (Listening down only!)
15 21295 21023 21102 (Listening down!)
17 18145 18073 18108 (listening down only!)
20 14190 14023 14084 (Listening up!) *
30 n/a 10103 10135 (Listening up!) *
40 7093 7023  
80 3750 3523  
160 1842.5 1822.5  

Note: These frequencies have been selected to allow the Peter I Team to, on occasion, have three signals on a band at one time. We have taken steps to minimize inter-station interference by separation of operating sites and different antenna polarizations. Although these frequencies may vary some and may even be changed all together depending upon what we encounter on the island and on the air, they are a good place to start looking for us

* Please note that we will be offering digital QSOs on several bands but have selected 30m and 20m as "primary" digital bands. This is where you should look for us first
