Dear Friends and Hams.

The Agalega stations will terminate 
all radio communication activities
on Monday 14th May 2001.

A great job has been very well done, under 
most extreme working conditions.

The team has surely achieved its goal
and helped many radio amateurs to work
yet another rare DX station.

Heartiest congratulations are extended 
to every member of the team.

Also,many thanks to all for the great Ham-Spirit.

Now, there is little else more for me to do 
and so I will take a break and
fly to the USA on the 17th May 
and visit the Dayton Hamvention.

This is your Head Pilot Sigi HB9DLE, 
signing off with 73s to everybody.

P.S.  The following (*) is my translation of 160-related info only from the
German attachment...de W4ZV:

Loweband:
Diese Nacht haben wir etwa 200 QSO auf 160 und 80 gemacht. Die Bedingungen waren
das erste mal befriedigend.

*Lowbands:

Programm:(UTC)
