[CCF] OH-vastaanotto FO/OH1RX

['Zaba' OH1ZAA]

Sirs!

En löytänyt näin nopeasti FOoZA-logia vuodelta 1986,
mutta se oli myös pilkkuminimin aikaa, ja tositahmeaa
pitkän DX:n workkimista 14 MHz:lla. Toistuvasti raja
Eurooppaan löytyi Kaspianmeren kohdilta; EU_vasta-asemia
ei kuulunut missään vaiheessa. Alempia bandeja en voinut
kunnolla hyödyntää, koska alle kilometrin etäisyydellä
oli joku virallinen HF-asema, joka ohjasi RX:n tukkoon.

FO/OH1RX on kuitenkin kaukana Tahitilta, joten saattaa
hyvinkin signaali Suomeen putkahtaa hieman eri reittejä.
Pojat voisivat myös kokeilla paikallisempiä TEP-kelejä.

P.S. Laitoin 50 MHz:n TEP ennusteet VK9W-operaatiolle:

http://www.uksmg.org/announce_cs.php


VK9W: The geomagnetic equator is offset by about 10 degrees to the North 
from the geographic equator, so Willis Island is in an excellent position 
for TEP-contacts, even in Solar Minimum. If you make sufficient propaganda 
in the Japanese media, there will be hundreds of contacts possible (I would 
not even exclude 144 MHz experiments)... With due respect to other 
estimates, I would like to stress the fact that if you look TEP-wise into 
Africa or the Pacific, from a populated area, the results will me meager... 
however, if you are on the other side, looking into alert dense population 
areas, then the results will be often nothing short of spectacular... My 
optimistic estimates given for rare spots have been in practice even 
surpassed during real expeditions (like the VP8/G3WOS operation and 
others).... Evening (local 18-21) time TEP will be most prevalent from 
VK9-Willis, but look for afternoon skip as well... In propagation there are 
plenty exceptions to the "rules" --- 73, "Zaba" OH1ZAA/OHoMZA ---

DL7AV/Tom, you may appreciate this link 
http://home.iprimus.com.au/toddemslie/aTEP-Harrison.htm to VK2ZRH:s 
observations in Townsville/VK4, not too far from VK9-Willis... In support 
of Costas/SV1DH's comments I would shade the target areas in the graph a 
little differently (also more Eastward of Japan)... Nice things in Solar 
flux can happen any time in Solar Minimum, like this minor peak 
http://www.dxlc.com/solar/ in Mid December 2007 (certainly sufficient to 
enhance TEP when it occurs during the wide equinox periods, like October 
2008)--- My personal approach to propagation is recursive, i.e. I assume 
that the bands are open (default for me as an operator) and subsequently I 
try to find proof that it isn't so ... generally my study is resulting in a 
list of logged stations or beacons, so I am happy enough to proceed this 
way... However, this also means that we preferably need an operator 
obsessed with 50 MHz at VK9W (or any other DX-pedition) --- 73, "Zaba" 
ex-FOoZA PJ2/OH1ZAA (FK52KG) with plenty of 1992 March longpath-JA's in the 
50 MHz log and a couple of 144 MHz TEP QSO's to LU (FF48 and such) ---
