SA-045. (Update) Operators Orlando/PT2OP and Fred/PY2XB plan to activate

fortnight (second week). Rony/PS7AB and Luciano/PT7WA, informed
OPDX this past week that Orlando/PT2OP and Fred/PY2XB have
received authorization from the environmental authorities
of the State of Amap=E1 to have a DXpedition to the Bailique
Archipelago (DIB AP-01, ARLHS BRA-009, WLOTA L-1123 and DFB
AP-04) and lighthouse. The Amap=E1 State is in the extreme
northern part of Brazil, and the islands in SA-045 are located
in the northern hemisphere. Amap=E1 has few hams, and the state
is highly requested by colleagues who wish to achieve the
diploma "Worked All Brazil" (WAB). It has been a long time
since an Island in IOTA SA-045 was activated. The islands
are part of a biological reserves under environmental pro-
tection. The second fortnight of August was chosen due to the
HF propagation forecast, the climate conditions of the region
and the moon season which affects the sea tide and the op-
portunities to reach the islands. The callsigns will be PQ8OP
(QSL via PT2OP) and PQ8XB (QSL via PT7WA). More details will
be forthcoming.

illness at the age of 80. Peter states, "Pierre was a multi-faceted Ham
who was not only a seasoned DX=92er but a highly regarded expert in VHF/UHF
work and the 'magic band'. He was author of numerous technical papers
and a book about VHF/UHF 'Operating Modes and Techniques'. Unforgettable
were his VHF and EME expeditions to HB0, 8Q7, V51 and lectures of these
adventures at many conventions and other Ham gatherings. Pierre achieved
the WAC on 144 mc EME in 1984 and the DXCC on 50 MHz in 2002. An ex-
Maritime Radio Operator, he was an Honorary Member of USKA (Union of
Swiss Short Wave Amateurs) and a number of other distinguished societies
in Amateur Radio. He leaves his wife Inge, a son and a daughter. He will
forever remain in our hearts." OPDX and its readers would like to send
out our deepest sympathy to the family and friends of HB9QQ.

by the UN. Currently, the feeling is that may be mid-August, 2011.
