VU4R Team will be active from 20th March 2020 to 31st March 2020 in Neil Islands, Andamans.
Thanks to the Government officials for support to grant the license.
The operation will mainly focus on low bands 160M,80M,40M.
We propose to activate 60M for the first time from VU4R Dxpediton.
We will also be operating during the CQ WPX SSB Contest, giving the contest’s yet another Rare prefix!
We do have concern band limitation on 160M due to the recent changes in our WPC which we are working on to resolve the Frequency Spectrum issue. Based on that we will also announce later final frequency and operating schedule.
The location will be the Northern tip of the Neil Island with clear opening to Europe / USA and All the antennas will be on the beach.
Our Team has decided that Charles, M0OXO, of great repute will be the QSL Manager, ClubLog and Online Log will be uploaded during or after the Expedition as the network permits. We will also be active on Eshail satellite for one day.
A minimum of three stations will be active, more will be operation depending on propagation and resources.
We will be using SteppIR / Hex beam for the high bands. Verticals for the low bands.
