Access to the main functions of www.425dxn.org is provided by the 425DXN App
for Android. It is available on Google Play - free of charge, no ads. Enjoy!

HD1X: CANCELLED ---> The 31 October-3 November operation from the Choco eco-
region of Ecuador [425DXN 1535] has been cancelled owing to "the uncertainty
of local policies regarding mobility  and other health measures".  New dates
will be announced as soon as possible: https://twitter.com/HCDX_Group.

IOTA NEWS ---> The logs for the  IOTA Contest 2020 island stations  have now
been added to the IOTA database and are available for QSO matching.  Record-
holders who have made IOTA contacts in an IOTA contest after 2003, can claim
credit for  them  without submitting QSLs, provided that the contact details
match.  Go to  https://iota-world.org/,  log in,  select  "Add Contest QSOs"
under the "My IOTA" tab, and choose either "Upload Contest Log"  or  "Manual
QSO Entry".

JX0X: CANCELLED ---> The  DXpedition  to  Jan Mayen  (18 September-2 October
2021) has been cancelled.  "While we worked hard for 18 months to secure the
entry permit, the permit to stay onshore, the fundraising and  the logistics
- we  have come  to the conclusion  that  there are  too many  uncertainties
involved in this project", the JX0X team announced on 26 October.  "There is
not a single reason that we cancel,  but rather several reasons  right up to
today that altogether makes this  a difficult project to complete.  We would
like to thank everybody who donated upfront to the JX0X DXpedition,  and who
believed  in our team  and our project.  You all made a contribution to have
the opportunity to work us guys next year, and you all made a difference  no
matter what  you donated.  It is people like you  who donated  upfront  that
makes  DXing happen.  Without upfront donations  we will see  less tent  and
generator DXpeditions to expensive places.  We will start refunding 100% all
paypal donations, and you should see your support returned soon".

QSL VIA PA1AW ---> Alex, PA1AW  has picked up the QSLing duties for the sta-
tions previously managed by PA3CAL. These include past operations (PA143ITU,

Is This Crap What Passes For Ham Radio These Days???

I just don't get it. Many hams are the most intelligent people that I know and yet they blindly go along with tthese massive lockdowns that are sure to ruin many nations economies. 

When did it EVER make sense to lock down a healthy population?? Seems Ben Franklin was correct....Those that sacrifice their Liberty for saftey are entitled to neither...

So all we hear on the radio is stay inside and stay safe...What a load of bullshit...Science is showing that this is not good for our natural immune systems...The virus, like all the past viruses, is not going away, EVER...And are you really going to take a vaccine that has been rushed to market? Its all lies and an attempt to control by the Liberal Media....

Now we have this internet programming attempting to pass itself off as ham radio!  People its a Chat Room...NOT Ham Radio...

Here is the positive spin by Southgate....What a load of CRAP...How about turning on your radio and participate in some real Ham Radio...SSB, CW RTTY...no, not that FT crap doesn't count either....Im working on DXCC...not my computer!

COVID-19 and Ham radio via internet

The strictest restrictions to stop the Covid-19 pandemic make life difficult for people who must stay safe at home every day.

Have you try the virtual amateur radio via VOiP and internet ?
You just need a computer, internet connection and a microphone for the computer.

This progam is HamSphere 4.0 and it is open to amateur radio but if you are not yet a ham you can receive a call like 26HS12345 like on CB radio.

You can have a free trial for one month ! So i hope to hear you soon on HS4 https://hs40.hamsphere.com/download

There are some vidéos on YT to help you for you first steep. If you are a ham its like a real TX with SSB from 10 to 160 meter with realistic propagation, just turn your directive virtual antenna !!!

73 de
FT5Z/F0DUW
on HS4 since 2014

 

See you on the Bands...NOT the computer.

AMATEUR RADIO NEWLINE DID A REPORT ON HEDY LAMARR DAY HERE IS THERE REPORT:

AN ECHOLINK NET CELEBRATES ACTRESS HEDY LAMARR

NEIL/ANCHOR: Actress Hedy Lamarr was as noted for her performances as her penchant for inventing in the realm of radio. There's a party for her on Echolink - and Jim Damron N8TMW tells us about it.

JIM: Among radio enthusiasts and fellow tinkerers, the late actress Hedy Lamarr deserved her name up in lights for reasons that had nothing to do with Hollywood. An inventor with a penchant for technology the star is credited with helping develop a patented radio signaling device used during the Second World War that years later led to GPS, Bluetooth, increased security on mobile phones and Wi-Fi. In 1997 - just three years before her death at the age of 85 - she was given the Electronic Frontier Foundation's Pioneer Award.

On Monday, November 9th, which would have been her 106th birthday, the Echolink ROC-HAM Conference Server is hosting Hedy Lamarr Day with a four-hour net. Four YL net controllers will be taking check-ins and celebrating her accomplishments. The net will also be accessible on the DODROPIN Conference Server Node 355800.

For just a short while, Hedy Lamarr will also be back on the screen - the small screen in this case. Organizer John DeRycke W2JLD told Newsline that the event will be streamed on YouTube's World Amateur Radio Day channel. It will also be heard on Broadcastify.

Be watching Netlogger - and be listening on EchoLink -- for the call sign N9H and visit the QRZ page for details about a special event QSL card.

For Amateur Radio Newsline I'm Jim Damron N8TMW.


Hedy Lamarr: 58 unknown facts about the actress and inventor!


1. Hedwig Eva Maria Kiesler was born 9 November 1914 in Vienna, Austria-Hungary.

2. She is the only child of Gertrud “Trude” Kiesler and Emil Kiesler.

3. Her father was born to a Jewish family in Lemberg (now Lviv in Ukraine) and was a successful bank director.

4. Her mother was a pianist and Budapest native who came from an upper-class Jewish family; she had converted from Judaism to Catholicism and was described as a “practicing Christian”, who raised her daughter as a Christian.

5. Lamarr helped get her mother out of Austria (then under Nazi domination) and to the United States. Her mother later became a United States citizen.

6. Gertrud Kiesler put “Hebrew” as her race on her petition for naturalization as a United States citizen. She would live out the rest of her life in California, dying in 1977 at age 83.

7. In the late 1920s, Lamarr was discovered as an actress and brought to Berlin by producer Max Reinhardt. Following her training in the theater, she returned to Vienna, where she began to work in the film industry, first as a script girl, and soon as an actress.

8. In early 1933, at age 18, she starred in Gustav Machatý’s film, Ecstasy (Ekstase in German, Extase in Czech), which was filmed in Prague, Czechoslovakia. Lamarr’s role was that of a neglected young wife married to an indifferent older man. The film became notorious for showing Lamarr’s face in the throes of orgasm as well as close-up and brief nude scenes in which she is seen swimming and running through the woods.

9. On 10 August 1933, Lamarr married Friedrich Mandl, an Austrian military arms merchant and munitions manufacturer who was reputedly the third-richest man in Austria.

10. Lamarr was 18 years old and Mandl was 33. In her autobiography Ecstasy and Me, Lamarr described Mandl as an extremely controlling husband who strongly objected to her simulated orgasm scene in Ecstasy, and prevented her from pursuing her acting career.

11. Lamarr claimed she was kept a virtual prisoner in their castle home, Schloss Schwarzenau.

12. Mandl had close social and business ties to the fascist government of Italy, selling munitions to Mussolini and, although his father was Jewish, had ties to the Nazi government of Germany as well.

13. Lamarr wrote that Mussolini and Hitler attended lavish parties at the Mandl home. Lamarr accompanied Mandl to business meetings, where he conferred with scientists and other professionals involved in military technology. These conferences were her introduction to the field of applied science and the bedrock that nurtured her latent talent in science.

14. Lamarr’s marriage to Mandl eventually became unbearable, and she decided to separate herself from both him and her country.

15. In her autobiography, she wrote that she disguised herself as her maid and fled to Paris; but by other accounts, she persuaded Mandl to let her wear all of her jewelry for a dinner party, then disappeared afterward.

16. After arriving in Paris in 1937, she met Louis B. Mayer, who was scouting for talent in Europe. Mayer persuaded her to change her name to Hedy Lamarr (she had been known as “the Ecstasy lady”), choosing the surname in homage to the beautiful silent film star, Barbara La Marr.

17. He brought her to Hollywood in 1938, and began promoting her as the “world’s most beautiful woman”.

18. Lamarr made her American film debut in Algiers (1938), opposite Charles Boyer. The film created a “national sensation,” says Shearer.

19. She was billed as an unknown but well-publicized Austrian actress, which created anticipation in audiences. Mayer hoped she would become another Greta Garbo or Marlene Dietrich. According to one viewer, when her face first appeared on the screen, “everyone gasped…Lamarr’s beauty literally took one’s breath away.”

20. In future Hollywood films, she was invariably typecast as the archetypal, glamorous seductress of exotic origin. Lamarr played opposite the era’s most popular leading men.

21. Her many films included Boom Town (1940) with Clark Gable and Spencer Tracy, Comrade X with Gable, White Cargo (1942), Tortilla Flat (1942) with Tracy and John Garfield, H. M. Pulham, Esq. (1941) with Robert Young, and Dishonored Lady (1947). In 1941, Lamarr was cast alongside Lana Turner and Judy Garland in Ziegfeld Girl.

22. Lamarr made 18 films from 1940 to 1949, and also had two children during that time (in 1945 and 1947).

23. After leaving MGM in 1945, she enjoyed her biggest success as Delilah in Cecil B.

24. DeMille’s Samson and Delilah, the highest-grossing film of 1949, with Victor Mature as the Biblical strongman.

25. However, following a comedic role opposite Bob Hope in My Favorite Spy (1951), her career went into decline. She appeared only sporadically in films after 1950, one of her last roles being that of Joan of Arc in Irwin Allen’s critically panned epic, The Story of Mankind (1957).

26. White Cargo, one of Lamarr’s biggest hits at MGM, contains arguably her most memorable film quote, delivered with provocative invitation: “I am Tondelayo. I make tiffin for you?” This line typifies many of Lamarr’s roles, which emphasized her beauty and sexuality, while giving her relatively few lines.

27. The lack of acting challenges bored Lamarr. She reportedly took up inventing to relieve her boredom.

28. Lamarr’s earliest inventions included an improved traffic stoplight and a tablet that would dissolve in water to create a carbonated drink. The beverage was unsuccessful; Lamarr herself said it tasted like Alka-Seltzer.

29. With the ongoing World War, Lamarr was inspired to contribute to the war effort, designing a jam-proof radio guidance system for torpedoes. With the help of composer George Antheil, they drafted designs for a new frequency-hopping, spread-spectrum technology that they later patented.

30. Lamarr and Antheil realized that radio-controlled torpedoes, which could be important in the naval war, could easily be jammed, thereby causing the torpedo to go off course.

31. With the knowledge she had gained about torpedoes from her first husband, and using a method similar to the way piano rolls work, they designed a frequency-hopping system that would continually change the radio signals sent to the torpedo.

32. Their invention was granted a patent on 11 August 1942 (filed using her married name Hedy Kiesler Markey). Yet, it was technologically difficult to implement, and at that time the U.S. Navy was not receptive to considering inventions coming from outside the military.

33. Only in 1962 (at the time of the Cuban missile crisis) did an updated version of their design appear on Navy ships.The design is one of the important elements behind today’s spread-spectrum communication technology, such as modern CDMA, Wi-Fi networks, and Bluetooth technology.

34. In 1997, they received the Electronic Frontier Foundation Pioneer Award and the Bulbie Gnass Spirit of Achievement Bronze Award, given to individuals whose creative lifetime achievements in the arts, sciences, business, or invention fields have significantly contributed to society.

35. She was featured on the Science Channel and the Discovery Channel.

36. In 2014, Lamarr and Antheil were posthumously inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame.

37. Lamarr became a naturalized citizen of the United States at age 38 on 10 April 1953.

38. In 1966, she was arrested in Los Angeles for shoplifting. The charges were eventually dropped.

39. In 1991, she was arrested on the same charge in Florida, this time for stealing $21.48 worth of laxatives and eye drops. She pleaded “no contest” to avoid a court appearance, and the charges were once again dropped in return for a promise to refrain from breaking any laws for a year.

40. Her autobiography, Ecstasy and Me, was published in 1966. However, she said on TV that it was not actually written by her, implying that much of it was fictional.

41. According to the book, she slipped into a brothel and hid in an empty room while fleeing her estranged husband, Fritz Mandl. While her husband searched the brothel, a man entered the room and she had sex with him so she could remain unrecognized. She escaped by hiring a maid who resembled her, she drugged the maid and used her uniform as a disguise to escape.

42. Lamarr later sued the publisher, saying that many of the anecdotes in the book, which was described by a judge as “filthy, nauseating, and revolting,” were fabricated by its ghost writer, Leo Guild. She was also sued in Federal Court by Gene Ringgold, who asserted the actress’s autobiography contained material from an article about her life which he wrote in 1965 for a magazine called Screen Facts.

43. The publication of her autobiography took place about a year after the accusations of shoplifting and a year after Andy Warhol’s short film Hedy (1966). The shoplifting charges coincided with a failed attempt to return to the screen in Picture Mommy Dead (1966). The role was ultimately filled by Zsa Zsa Gabor.

44. The 1970s was a decade of increasing seclusion for Lamarr. She was offered several scripts, television commercials, and stage projects, but none piqued her interest.

45. In 1974, she filed a $10-million lawsuit against Warner Bros., claiming that the running parody of her name (“Hedley Lamarr”) in the Mel Brooks’ comedy Blazing Saddles infringed her right to privacy.

46. Brooks said he was flattered. Τhe studio settled out of court for an undisclosed nominal sum and an apology to Lamarr for “almost using her name”. Brooks said that Lamarr “never got the joke”.

47. With failing eyesight, she retreated from public life and settled in Miami Beach, Florida, in 1981.

48. For several years beginning in 1997, the boxes of CorelDRAW’s software suites were graced by a large Corel-drawn image of Lamarr. The picture won CorelDRAW’s yearly software suite cover design contest in 1996. Lamarr sued Corel for using the image without her permission. Corel countered that she did not own rights to the image. The parties reached an undisclosed settlement in 1998.

49. For her contribution to the motion picture industry, Lamarr has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6247 Hollywood Blvd adjacent to Vine St where the Walk is centered.

50. In her later years, Lamarr turned to plastic surgery to preserve the looks she was terrified of losing. Lamarr had to endure disastrous results. “She had her breasts enlarged, her cheeks raised, her lips made bigger, and much, much more” said her son, Anthony. “She had plastic surgery thinking it could revive her looks and her career, but it backfired and distorted her beauty”. Anthony Loder also claimed that Lamarr was addicted to pills.

51. Lamarr became estranged from her adopted son, James Lamarr Loder, when he was 12 years old. Their relationship ended abruptly and he moved in with another family. They did not speak again for almost 50 years. Lamarr left James Loder out of her will and he sued for control of the US$3.3 million estate left by Lamarr in 2000.

52. Lamarr was married and divorced six times. She adopted a son, James, in 1941, during her second marriage to Gene Markey. She went on to have two biological children, Denise (born 1945) and Anthony (born 1947), with her third husband, actor John Loder, who also adopted James.

53. The following is a list of her marriages:

Friedrich Mandl (married 1933–1937), chairman of the Hirtenberger Patronen-Fabrik.

Gene Markey (married 1939–1941), screenwriter and producer. Child: James Lamarr Markey (born 9 January 1939), adopted 12 June 1939, and re-adopted by John Loder; the child was thereafter known as James Lamarr Loder. The couple lived at 2727 Benedict Canyon Drive in Beverly Hills, California during their marriage.

John Loder (married 1943–1947), actor. Children: Denise Loder (born 19 January 1945), married Larry Colton, a writer and former baseball player, and Anthony Loder (born 1 February 1947), married Roxanne who worked for illustrator James McMullan.
