2-metre Moonbounce activity from the South Cook Islands

News for VHF ‘Moonbounce’ enthusiasts.

Between about 5 and 30 May Bob, ZL1RS, will be active as ZK1EME from Rarotonga in the South Cook Islands on 2-metre moonbounce. There may also be some 6m EME activity.

He will be operating from a location on the lagoon edge at the northern side of the island in locator BG08ct, so he says to expect some good ground gain on both moonrise and moonset during northerly declinations. His operation will be mostly on JT65b.

Bob notes that the window to Europe is very limited, so he will be asking North American stations to stand by until moonset in Europe. Regular updates and information will be on Moon-Net during May.
