FT4TA, TROMELIN ISLAND. By the time you read this, the FT4TA Tromelin
Island DXpedition should be QRT or almost QRT. According to a press
release on Friday: "We are now on the final lane of our operation. We
will start to dismantle most of the antennas on Sunday because all
equip-
ment must be packed and stored in big plastic cases for
transportation.
The boxes will be transported from Tromelin to France in the coming
months.
We plan to keep all stations running but not on all bands for the
last
night. Estimated QRT time is around 0100z Monday."
As this was being written on Sunday, ClubLog's Web page was showing
as
of 1542z, November 9th, the QSO count was 58631/Total and
15674/Unique
callsigns (24108/CW, 27130/SSB and 7393/RTTY). Breakdown by continent
is:
659/AF, 6/ANT, 7088/AS, 34539/EU, 14716/NA, 753/OC and 870/SA.
However, they announced on early Sunday: "Today the team got in
touch
via sat-phone to inform they do not have internet anymore on the
island.
The logs are safe, but no more uploads will take place until they
return
to Mayotte on Monday. Later today they may be off air for 1 or 2 hours
as
they start to disassemble. No more 80/160 activity will take place.
The
focus tonight is 30 and 40m. They have made nearly 70,000 QSOs.
Since
there is no more internet please refrain from contacting pilots as
the
team will not now receive any new messages."
The was an added surprise by the FT4TA team mid-week. Many DXers
were
happy to see some if not all of their QSOs already uploaded to LoTW.
Remeber the online log is available at:
An OQRS will be available by ClubLog. QSL via F1NGP. QSLing details

REALTIME BAND CONDITIONS WEB SITE <http://www.bandconditions.com>:
The purpose of this experimental Web site is to provide 24-7-365
actual
(REALTIME) band condition information to CW QRPp, QRPe and CW/SSB
for
Contesters interested in increasing their scores. It can also be of
benefit to other Radio Amateurs to determine band conditions for
Nets
and casual QSO's. This information is NOT based on any software
pre-
dictions or any kind of satellite based readings. It is based on a
new Ionospheric sounding method called "HF Ionospheric
Interferometry"
which operates very similarly to the PolSAR system used by
NASA.
