A35RS - Kingdom of Tonga

Kingdom of Tonga

Barring some sort of disaster, A35RS should be QRV on 2M from AG28hv in the Kingdom of Tonga (south Pacific islands) from 06-15 January 2009.

However, the antenna setup will be small, the power low, no skeds, no Internet, and I will be “on holiday” …so don’t expect too much !!

But, do take a look for my signal as the location has a great take off directly over the ocean at A35 moonset which corresponds with moonrise in Europe  - possible double ground gain !! … and the potential for massive Faraday/one-way propagation problems!! It will be great “fun”!

Frequencies and operating times will be announced later HERE … or look for spots on the loggers … and good luck

Seasons greetings to all!

73, Bob ZL1RS/A35RS

P.S. I promise you bigger, brighter and better things on 2M from the Cook Islands as E51EME from BG08dr in late March/early April when Lance W7GJ and I team up there for a real “6 and 2 EME dxpedition” effort.
