Fred

Eu vi isso acontecer. Eu estava no pile-up, acho que era 30m e vonês estavam QSX abaixo.
Os cops só transmitiam "up up".

Eu gostei da parte do cluster. É muito engraçado ver o pessoal mandando recado para a
expedição pelo cluster!

Parabéns pelo trabalho!!

> Ricardo, seu entendimento é o contrário do que brincam no artigo. Ele diz
> que os "cops" nao entendem down, só up. Como usamos down em 2 bandas eles
> ironizam que vão tomar cuidado para que seja só up.
> O artigo é  bem humorado e infelizmente ironiza uma triste realidade

>> FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
>>
>> After a lot of negotiation we are pleased to announce a multinational
>> team of twelve is to undertake a Dxpedition to Bouvet Island from 25
>> March 2013 to 5 April 2013 using the callsign 3Y0IOF.
>>
>> We will be operating 24/7 with five stations covering all bands
>> 160m-10m.
>>
>> We understand that Dxpeditions are all about you the DX operator
>> therefore we are pleased to announce some exciting new innovations.
>>
>> We appreciate many of you feel you should not have to make any effort to
>> work us. Accordingly we are offering you the chance to call us on the
>> telephone when you are ready for a QSO.  That’s right we will give you a
>> phone number and when you are ready you can ring us and we will
>> immediately cease to work the pile up and call you on a frequency of
>> your choice.  Not only that we will also ensure an email is sent to you
>> directly after the QSO to confirm you are in the log.  Furthermore we
>> are organising a team of experts who, if you wish, will fly in and set
>> up your rig on the required frequency, connect the antenna for you and
>> make sure the heating or ventilation is on so it is nice and warm or
>> cool in your shack as the case requires.  Don’t worry about propagation.
>> We will make sure there is some between us as we understand that is our
>> responsibility and it’s our fault if there isn’t.
>>
>> If that is not for you then don’t worry we are just as happy to work you
>> in a pile up.  We realise that we will need to operate in accordance
>> with your operating habits so therefore we will understand if you call
>> over the top of another station we are trying to work, or when we are
>> specifically calling a part of the world you do not reside in, or if you
>> are simply calling aimlessly or while we are transmitting, or even if
>> you call when you cannot hear us.  We will do our best to work you
>> despite all this and yes we know it’s our fault if you do not make it
>> into the log.
>>
>> We wish to acknowledge the value Frequency Cops bring to a Dxpedition so
>> to recognise this we are going to specifically publicise some times when
>> we will arrange for some operators to deliberately call us on our
>> frequency instead of split.  Frequency Cops can even register their
>> availability with us to help us ensure these periods get maximum uptake
>> by the Frequency Cop community.  During these periods the Frequency Cops
>> will be able to say or send “up up!” to their hearts content. (Note: we
>> will make sure we tell the pile up to listen up and not down as the
>> recent PT0S Dxpedition has taught us that Frequency Cops don’t know how
>> to send “down” in CW).
>>
>> We also don’t want the “tuner uppers” to feel left out and like them we
>> feel dummy loads are completely overrated.  So when we are ready to
>> transmit on a band we will give them the opportunity to tune up on our
>> frequency before we start working the pile up.  Each period will start
>> with us sending our callsign and “QDL” (“Quick Dummy Loaders”) so they
>> will know when to commence tuning up on us.  We will allow for at least
>> five minutes for this as we know how important it is for the tuner
>> uppers to make sure their finals are good and ready.  We acknowledge if
>> they go bang it’s our fault.  Depending on demand we will every now and
>> then send “QDL” while working a pile up so any tuner uppers late to the
>> party can tune up on us as well.
>>
>> Unfortunately we will not have cluster access while we are on Bouvet but
>> we know this will not stop you posting announcements and comments on the
>> cluster about our Dxpedition.  Some suggestions for you to try include
>> saying what band you want us to QSY to or mode to operate on, the
>> quality of our ops and the usual “loud”, “can’t hear them here”, “thanks
>> for 7th band” or “yee hah” comments.  Likewise as we noted above we
>> understand it’s our fault if you cannot work us and therefore we accept
>> in that case you will post on the cluster calling us the worst
>> Dxpedition ever.
>>
>> We can’t wait to be of service to you.
