> 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
>
> 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.
