New EME 
DX-pedition to Africa by Rene (PE1L), Eltje (PA3CEE) and Hermann (DL2NUD). At this time they are intended to activate 5 bands: 2m, 70cm, 23cm, 13cm and 9cm.
QRV from 9 till 22 of May. The expeditions blog, online log, media is here.
At theirs first activity day (9th of May), my moon rise was at 23:20 utc (02:20 local time) from the most worse azimuth 124 degrees. Why worst – because I always have huge noise from this direction! At this time there was not exclusion too. Noise was S7 on S-meter of TS-2000. So, I need to wait, at least, Moon elevation 10 degrees or more… Nothing to do: just seat and wait. One and half hours waiting and weak trace appears on the waterfall. I started to call and very quick got replay: as always, the Atletico Team has a very good hears! So, my DXCC # 145 was co
mpleted at 01:08 utc on 10th of May. I do not know, how loud I was there, but, probably, not strong, because twice got report RRR… Look at the screen shot.
Now I want to wish success to myself on 15th or 16th of May, than team will QRV on 70cm. Unfortunately, still I not ready on 23cm EME…
……To be continued……
But nothing to continue…
15th and 16th of May, the team was active on 432 Mhz. I was totally unhappy. Several times I decoded 7Q7EME’s QSO with others. But my problems with RX/TX coaxial relay, poor conditions and Mr. Murphy did all to make QSO impossible. They answered to me, but… It makes no sense to describe what I was trying to do to make the QSO. It was just bad luck. It is a pity … It would hardly be able to get more time Malawi 70 cm EME. As a conclusion: I have to do something to improve my setup for 70 см EME.
