4W - EAST TIMOR, OC-148
The Spanish radio society URE (Union de Radioaficionados Espanoles) is
planning a DXpedition to Dili, the capital of East Timor, using the
callsign 4W6R in June 2008. They plan to build up an amateur radio club
station at the university in Dili as well. The equipment -which will
stay in East Timor as a donation- consists of a Kenwood TS-690,
a Mosley beam TA63M, a G5RV antenna and an antenna rotator. A second
station will be activated but taken home again after the DXpedition.
They plan to log 30.000 QSOs in CW, SSB and RTTY during 15 days.
Similar projects were realized by the URE in Cameroon, Cuba, Honduras,
El Salvador, Guatemala, Albania, Algeria and Mali from 1998 until 2007.
The Spanish team includes following experienced operators:
Angel,EA1QF (team leader, works CW/digital modes), Pere,EA3CUU (CW),
Jose,EA4DB (ex-EA4BPJ,CW/SSB/digital), Eugene,EA4KA (CW),
Txema,EA5BWR (CW/SSB/digital), and Jose,CT1ERC (CW/digital).
As usual the QSLs are managed very reliably by EA4URE (also via buro).
