The news headlines
" Five days to go until the UK's largest amateur radio show
" Over the horizon radio causes interference
" Postal delays affect the RGSB
Next Friday, the 2nd of October, sees the opening of the UK's largest
amateur radio show for some years. The show takes place at the Newark
showground and spans two days. The National Hamfest will have lots for
visitors to see because all space for traders is completely full. All
the major manufacturers and retailers will be at the show, including a
number of overseas traders making their first visit to the UK. There is
a car boot area and bring and buy too.
The National Hamfest will be your one opportunity this year to meet the
RSGB and its many representative committees. The new GB4FUN vehicle will
be in attendance and so will Ofcom. This will be the first time that
Ofcom have attended a major UK amateur radio event. The star of the show
will be the Luso aerial tower that created such a huge interest at both
Dayton and Friedrichshafen earlier this year. The new National Hamfest
has everything for the radio amateur and is a show not to be missed. The
showground is easy to find and there is ample car parking right next to
the hall. Full details can be found in RadCom and on the National
Hamfest website, www.nationalhamfest.co.uk, where you will find a full
list of all traders plus an up to date floor plan.
IARU Region 1 reports that the Russian over-the-horizon radar is active
daily on 14.440MHz and is producing splatter plus and minus 110kHz. The
upper part of the 20m band is affected, too. The location of the
ABM2-radar is in the area of Smolensk. The German PTT has been informed.
More information is available on their website, www.iaru-r1.org.
The RSGB, like most organisations and businesses, is suffering delays
due to the many local Royal Mail disputes around the UK. The situation
appears to be worsening and there is a threat of a national postal
strike on the horizon. The Society apologies for any delays in postal
exchanges and in particular late delivery of RadCom; this is beyond our
control.
There have been several additions and changes to the programme for the
RSGB Convention taking place over the 9th to 11th October. For example,
the HF Contest Forum will now take place before the HF Contest Trophy
presentations. Bookings for rooms, meals and so on closes next Friday,
2nd October, although day visitors are welcome at all times. For the
latest updates check out the Convention's programme on the RSGB
Convention website www.rsgb.org.uk/rsgbconvention.
After more than 20 years of handling all of the QSL cards for residents
and the scores of visiting amateurs who come year upon year to enjoy the
rarer prefix of Jersey, Reg Allnet, GJ3XZE is stepping down as the
island's volunteer sub manager. The RSGB wishes to convey its grateful
thanks for his sterling work on behalf of his fellow amateurs and hopes
that maybe now he will have some time to operate. Reg has found his own
replacement and we are delighted to welcome Michael Brown, 2J0SZI, who
has volunteered to take his place. Full contact details are available in
the QSL section of the RSGB members' website, where a full list of all
sub managers can be found. Visitors to the Channel Islands and the Isle
of Man are reminded that UK stamps for the collection of QSL cards are
not valid and that it is wise to purchase appropriate stamps for SAEs
during their stay. Cards arriving at the bureau without a via listing -
and many hundreds do - will not be diverted to home addresses.
The British Young Ladies Amateur Radio Association will be celebrating
their 30th anniversary on their stand at the National Hamfest in Newark
on 2 and 3 October. They invite all radio amateurs to join them in their
celebrations and look forward to meeting as many amateurs as possible -
whether BYLARA members or not. For more information on how to get to the
venue to join in these birthday celebrations, go to www.nationalhamfest.c
o.uk.
In the week leading up to the National Hamfest, G0PIO, G6JUT and G3XZF
are involved in some local radio broadcasts about amateur radio. In the
Rob Underwood programme broadcast throughout the BBC Radio Midlands area
and on Monday evening on local radio throughout the BBC East region they
will be talking about amateur radio and its value as a hobby. They are
hoping to encourage people through these regions to visit the National
Hamfest and see what amateur radio is all about for themselves.
IARU Region 1 reports that in the evening hours of 18 September a strong
WXfax signal appeared on 14.0019MHz. DK2OM bearings pointed to USA and
the transmissions came from the US Coastguard. Jack, AA3GZ informed the
US Coastguard and they promised to solve the problem. The same day a
strong F1B signal was heard on 7.1017MHz. The ident belonged to the
Royal Navy in Faslane, Scotland. Interference was reported to the German
PTT, who informed Ofcom. About 20 minutes later the transmission was
finished.
D-Star repeater GB7NE is now on the air. It operates on 439.450MHz and
covers most of the county of Northumberland from Newcastle upon Tyne to
Bamburgh. The repeater is maintained by Colin, G7RWC and has a website,
gb7ne.org.uk. The repeater currently operates as a stand alone digital
audio repeater but will be connected to the D-Star network within the
next few weeks.
The International Amateur Radio Union (IARU) will be exhibiting and
participating at the upcoming ITU Telecom World 2009 in early October.
The event will be used to roll out the new IARU Emergency Communications
Brochure as well as to showcase some publications of IARU member
societies.
And now for the details of rallies and events for the coming week
The Kempton Radio and Electronics Show will be held today, 27 September,
at Kempton Park Racecourse, Sunbury on Thames TW16 5QA. The show opens
at 10am and there will be a talk-in station on 145.550MHz using the call
GB2KRT. Most major amateur radio distributors will be represented and
there will be plenty of trade stands. There will be three talks in the
RSGB Bytesized Lecture Series, details of which are on the website
www.radiofairs.co.uk. RSGB Abbey Court staff will be running the RSGB
bookstall.
The National Hamfest, organised by the RSGB in association with the
Lincoln Short Wave Club, will take place on the 2nd and 3rd October at
the George Stephenson Pavilion, Newark and Nottinghamshire Showground,
Lincoln Road, Winthorpe, Newark NG24 2NY. There will be the largest

Now for the news of special events
Following last year's first Railways on the Air event, Bishop Auckland
Amateur Radio Club is coordinating ROTA 2009 over the weekend 26 and 27
September. The event is timed to coincide with the anniversary of the
running of the world's first steam passenger train on the Stockton to
Darlington Railway and there are many special event stations on the air.
For a full listing, check out their website at http://barac.m0php.net.
GB70GB is a very special Special Event callsign, issued by Ofcom for the
70th anniversary of the opening of the Research Centre at Great Baddow.
This is the home to what was originally Marconi's Research Laboratories.
Later, it was also home to famous staff including Spycatcher author
Peter Wright and Chris Cockrell, inventor of the hovercraft. The station
will be operating on Saturday 3rd October and will be operated by
members of the Chelmsford Amateur Radio Society. Baddow is also home to
the last surviving fully intact 360ft Chain Home radar mast from the
Battle of Britain - itself coming up to its own anniversary in February
2010, the 75th anniversary of the Daventry Experiment when radar was
born. Visitors must pre-register to visit the special event station and
they will see a series of exhibits on Baddow's history and technology
from turn of the century Marconi heritage right up to present day
innovations at what is now known as BAE Systems Advanced Technology
Centre. Full details can be found at qrz.com.
Special event station GB4GDS, celebrating the work of the Guide Dogs for
the Blind organisation, will be operating from 1 October for 28 days
from the Lindsayfield branch of Guide Dogs for the Blind. Operator
Keith, GM4DAE hopes to be active on 80m, 40m, 20m and 2m at various
times from early morning through to late evening. The station celebrates
the 78th anniversary of the first Guide Dog training in Wallasey,
Cheshire, in 1931.
Over the weekend of 3rd and 4th October, members of the Grimsby &
District battalion will be operating GB1BB for the Founding weekend On
the Air, which celebrates the founding of the Boys Brigade movement in
1887. Also on the air will be the 1st Bermuda battalion, callsign
VP9400BB. If you are helping a Battalion or Company take part then
please register the callsign via e-mail to fwoa_bb.2009@yahoo.com.
And now the HF DX news compiled from 425 DX News and other sources.
The Glorioso Island DXpedition team are now active. The FT5GA team had
some antenna problems at first due to windy weather conditions and a
faulty contact on a WARC Spiderbeam, which was fixed. Indications seem
that all three stations are now on the air. Activity has been on all
bands and the CW/SSB modes with some RTTY. Operations will last until
October 5th and the QSL Manager is F5OGL, Didier Senmartin, PO Box 7,
F-53320 Loiron, France. Full details on their website at
http://glorieuses2008.free.fr.
From 5 to 50 October, Bill Vanderheide, N7OU will be on Rarotonga, South
Cooks Island doing volunteer work. His callsign will be E51NOU and he'll
be on the air in his spare time on 80 to 10m, CW only. QSL to his home
callsign N7OU.
Barrie, G4AHK will operate holiday style as 7Q7BJ while travelling
around Malawi, until 12 October. He plans to focus on 160, 80 and 40
metres. QSL via G4AHK.
Now the contest news
The Edgware Activity Periods run until 2 October in short periods of
operation - these can be found on their website, www.g3asr.thersgb.net.
You can use SSB or CW on any or all of the bands.
On 29 September the 70MHz UK Activity Contest takes place between 1900
and 2130UTC. You can use all modes on the band and the exchange is
signal report, serial number and locator.
The first RSGB HF event of October is the 21/28MHz Contest On October 4
between 0700 and 1900UTC. You can work others on each mode on each band,
exchanging RS(T) and serial number plus District Code. For most people
this means the first two letters of your postcode, but single first
letter postcodes are padded to two letters. If you're not sure what your
District Code is, a list is available in the RSGB Yearbook or online at
www.rsgbcc.org/hf/information/districtcodes.shtml. There are Open,
Restricted and QRP categories and sections for CW, SSB and mixed modes.
Saturday 3 October sees the 1.2/2.3GHz Trophy taking place between 1400
and 2200UTC using all modes. The exchange is Signal report, serial
number and locator.
Non-RSGB events start with the IARU 432MHz-248GHz Contest, which runs
for a full 24 hours from 1400 to 1400UTC on 3 and 4 October. The first
six hours coincide with the RSGB 1.2GHz/2.3GHz Trophy Contest. Casual
participants will doubtless find some 70cm stations on SSB to contact,
but its well-equipped hilltop residents or portables that will be making
the running.
Now the solar factual data for the period from the 14th to the 20th of
September, compiled by Neil Clarke, G0CAS and Martin Harrison, G3USF.
The solar disc was spotless throughout the week and solar activity
remained very low. However, the solar flux moved very slightly upwards,
reaching 71 units on the 19th and 20th, its highest level since July.
The average across the week was 70, a gain of one point. The 90-day
average was unchanged at 68 and the X-ray flux stayed below its minimum
reporting threshold. More importantly for HF propagation, geomagnetic
levels were consistently low, averaging a shade under 5 Ap units. Solar
wind speeds reported by the ACE spacecraft ranged between a high of
476km/sec on the 16th and a low of 278km/sec on the 20th. Particle
densities were low every day, apart from the occasional short-lived
blip. And the interplanetary magnetic field was quiet, with Bz showing
only small variation, the maximum being between plus 7 and minus 5
nanoTeslas on the 20th. Aided by low geomagnetic levels and seasonal
improvement, HF propagation reached predicted values. Good morning
openings to the Far East and the Pacific were reported on 14MHz and the
Glorioso DXpedition proved workable up to 24MHz. There were even brief
periods with sporadic-E on 28MHz.
Looking ahead now, solar activity will mostly be very low, though we may
well see occasional sunspots and even a minor flare. Solar flux levels
are expected to hover around 70. The geomagnetic field may initially be
slightly unsettled in the wake of a small coronal hole disturbance but
should subsequently be quiet. Prospects for HF propagation look
reasonably good, within the context of the current prolonged solar
minimum. MUFs at equal latitudes will continue to be around 19MHz in
southern Britain and 16MHz in the north. Darkness lows will be about
9MHz. Paths to southern Africa should have a maximum usable frequency
around 22MHz. The optimum working frequency, at which there should be a
90 per cent chance of success, will be around 18MHz. The best time will
be between 1400 and 2000 UTC.
Finally, G4FKH's propagation predictions for a wide range of paths can
now be found on the Society's web page at www.rsgb.org.uk/propagation.
And that's all for this week from the propagation team.
