 Tio, bom dia.
 Que ótima notícia, é uma das entidades mais difíceis do mundo,
essa expedição dará chance de muitos radioamadores conseguirem o
desejado "new one" PY0/s.
 Mais uma vez o Araucária DX Group se destacando e elevando o nome do
Brasil ao topo da comunidade DXista mundial.
 Parabéns à você e ao ADXG!

 Ola amigos Com alegria estamos veiculando e informando aos amigos do
DXs o comunicado sobre a realização da expedição aos Rochedos de
São Pedro e São Paulo.Graças aos inestimáveis apoios da Marinha,
Ministério do Meio Ambiente, SECIRM, LABRE e ANATEL, recebemos
oficialmente a aprovação de nosso pleito para realização de uma
expedição aos Rochedos para final de Novembro inicio de Dezembro.
Alguns aspectos importantes do Plano da Expedição 
    *Nosso log será   atualizado dentro de 36 horas no LOTW   
    *Daremos atenção   especial as bandas baixas 80 e 160   
    *Estaremos   utilizando antenas especiais para este tipo de
expedição, sendo que   diosponibilizaremos os projetos para
radioamadores interessados. - antenas   verticais sobre agua salgada. 
 
    *Estaremos em   parceria como SECIRM colaborando com as pesquisas
cientificas no Arquipelago   fazendo doações de equipamentos
auxiliares para tal   
    *Estaremos dotando   os Rochedos de uma estação que ficará a
disposição do SECIRM para  ser   utilizada por radioamadores
pesquisadores.   
    *Em virtude do   projeto das estações foi absolutamente 
minizado impactos ao meio   ambiente.

Nosso site deverá conter todas as informações necessárias sobre a
expedição http://www.pt0s.com [2] Desejamos a todos boa sorte e que
Deus abençoe a expedição Um abraçoAtilano PP5EG  Abaixo
transcrevemos o anuncio oficial da Expedição 

	The Araucaria DX Group, in conjunction with the TX3A Team, is pleased
to announce a DXpedition to St. Peter and St. Paul Rocks, PY0S, under
the call sign PT0S. The DXpedition will take place in the late
November to mid December, 2012 time frame. The actual dates will
depend on weather conditions and will be announced later on this
website.  

	There has been an official ban on Amateur Radio activities from PY0S.
Although the ban, which was created for environmental and safety
reasons, remains in place, the Araucaria DX Group was given a special
permit by Brazil's SECIRM (Secretaria da Comissao Interministerial
para Os Recursos do Mar), the Brazilian Navy, Ministry of Environment
and LABRE to conduct a two week long operation. 

	The operation will have a strong low band focus. There will be a
dedicated 160 meter station operating on 160 meters from sunset to
sunrise. A second station will be on 80 and 40 meters at night. During
the day we will operate two stations on the higher bands -- and 6
meters -- based on conditions. RTTY will also be supported. 

	The DXpedition's goal is to give this rare and difficult entity to as
many amateurs as possible, taking maximum advantage of this unique
opportunity. The group will be using newly designed RX antennas and
receiving equipment to allow small and QRP stations to work PT0S on
all bands, but especially on 80 and 160 meters. 

	All QSO-s will be loaded onto LoTW within 36 hours of taking place. 

	Operators will be Fred Carvalho PY2XB (PY2XB/PY0F, PQ0F, VP5/PY2XB,
8P9XB), Peter Sprengel PP5XX/PY5CC (PY0FM, PW0T, HK0NA). Tomi Pekarik,
HA7RY and George Wallner, AA7JV. Due to environmental considerations,
we have been limited to four operators. About The Araucaria DX Group 
 The Araucaria DX Group (GRUPO ARAUCARIA DE DX) was formed in the 70s
by mostly Brazilian amateur radio enthusiasts. Today it has become a
multinational group focused on contesting and dxing. The group
currently has 340 members, of which about 100 are from outside Brazil.
The group includes 15 top of Honor Roll and several Contest Hall of
Fame members. For details go to: http://www.araucariadx.com [3] 
 About the TX3A Team:
 The TX3A Team of HA7RY and AA7JV have conducted a number of two-man
DXpeditions to Chesterfield Reef (TX3A), Mellish Reef (VK9GMW),
Serrana Bank - Bajo Nouveo (5K0T) and Willis Islets (VK9WWI). The team
focuses on putting difficult places on the air, especially on the low
bands. 
	 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION 
	The Saint Peter and Saint Paul Archipelago (ASPSP)       is a group
of 15 small islets and rocks in the Atlantic Ocean, lying close      
to the equator and about 520 nautical miles (990 km) east of the
Brazilian       city of Natal. The rocks are close to the
Intertropical Convergence Zone       (ITCZ), are area of constant and
severe thunderstorms, resulting in       permanently noisy radio
conditions, especially on the lower bands. The       rocks are located
relatively close to both North America and Europe. We       hope that
the proximity of the rocks to Europe and North America will      
allow relatively small stations to work this rare entity.       

	We will be operating from the largest rock, called       Belmonte.
This is a very a difficult place to operate from. Although the      
Brazilian navy maintains a scientific research station on Belmonte,
which       is manned year around, we will have to be totally
self-reliant and will be       unable to use station's facilities.
Apart from the location of the       research station, there is no
flat ground on the rocks. We will be taking       a pre-fabricated
platform on which we will erect our tent.       

	Due to their strategic importance, the Rocks of St.       Peter and
St. Paul are treated differently by the Brazilian government to      
other islands in its territory. The Secretariat of the
Interministerial       Commission for Sea Resources (SECIRM) manages
the archipelago in a manner       the maximizes protection of national
and environmental interests in the       region. The infrastructure of
the archipelago is very complex. Researchers       take turns
constantly on the research station located on Belmonte islet.      
The conduct research in areas of geology, biology, oceanography,      
meteorology and other academic and national interest. The difficulties
of       access in terms of almost 1,000 km distance that separates
this small part       of the country from the continent, the absence
of drinking water, the       frequent earthquakes; are just some of
the difficulties encountered by the       Brazilian government in
managing the site.      

	As a consequence of several meetings with the       Brazilian
authorities, the organizers of the Expedition, represented by      
the Araucaria Dx Group's Chairman (PY5EG Atilano de Oms), had the     
 opportunity to show the relevance of ham radio activity to the      
communications community as well how the Dx-Pedition intends to
cooperate       to meet the requirements of the occupation of the
archipelago and       demonstrate its compatibility with the ongoing
activities. The Brazilian       Navy through SECIRM is giving total
support to the expedition.
 Due to       the fact that the archipelago is a very important
natural Brazilian       reserve, a special permit from Ministry of
Environment ( ICMBIOS) has been       issued (NR 01-2012).
 The expedition has also received a fundamental       support from the
Brazilian Amateur Radio League LABRE, as well from ANATEL      
(Agencia Nacional de Telecomunicacoes). A special call has been
assigned       PT0S.
 During all contacts with the Brazilian entities, we emphasized      
the importance of the work done by radio amateurs and reciprocity that
      could derive from this understanding. The operation is aimed not
only at       bringing this rare location to the DX community, but
also to demonstrate       that Amateur Radio is in fact totally
compatible with the scientific and       environmentally sensitive
nature of the St. Peter and St. Paul       Archipelago.
 The Araucaria DX Group greatly appreciates the       understanding
and support of all its friends and Brazilian authorities.      
Additional Background: 
 The       archipelago of St Peter and St Paul is a group of small
rocky islands and       rocky which is situated in the central
equatorial Atlantic Ocean, lying       627 km from the archipelago of
Fernando de Noronha, 986 km the nearest       point on the mainland
and 1010 km from Natal, in Rio Grande do Norte. It       was declared
as part of the Brazilian territory, according to IBGE       belonging
to the state of Pernambuco, despite being closer to the state of      
Rio Grande do Norte. In 1998 a scientific station was opened on the
island       Belmonte, initiating the program Archipelago of Sao Pedro
and Sao Paulo       (Proarquipelago) administered by the Secretariat
of the Interministerial       Commission for Sea Resources (SECIRM).
The permanent presence of       scientists in scientific station is
required to prove the livability in       the archipelago, which is
seen as crucial for its international       recognition as the
archipelago as Brazilian territory.
