With
great sadness we inform of the passing of colleague PY6ATY Valdelira
Goncalves da Silva, from Salvador, capital of the north-east
Brazilian state of Bahia. Condolences to her family and members of
ARCCO who are sad that she will no longer be heard on-air.
PY6BZ
PAULO wrote on facebook: Many colleagues called her "Godmother"
because she did the baptism on the radio (first qso) of many radio
amateurs. Curiously, she left us on the celebrations of Saint John,
the saint of baptism.

What
is a dxpedition?
An
expedition or Dxpedition is an operation carried out by an amateur
radio operator or a group of them from an "exotic" or
"weird" place, radially speaking due to their remoteness,
their complicated or restricted access, or simply because they do not
exist or are very few resident radio amateurs who practice DX.
But
what is the grace of transmitting from these places you would think
because we could spend our lives without them and nothing happens.
What
happens is that there are programs leading to the obtaining of
diplomas such as the IOTA program (Islands on the Air) or the DXCC
(Dx Century Club), the first one divides radio amateurs in Chaser or
island hunters and in Activators or expeditionaries ( who perform the
operations) if you wish to pursue and get these Awards (Diplomas) you
will love knowing that a group of operators will put on the air a
very elusive island that is just the one you need. In order to
regulate the IOTA diploma program, a significant number of islands or
groups of islands have been identified and numbered under the same
name, for example: -
SA
018 Call area CE7 LOS LAGOS REGION SOUTH group (= Acui, Alao,
Apiao, Caguache, Cailin, Caucahue, Chaulinec, Chaullin, Chauques Isls
[namely Anihue, Aulin, Buta Chauques, Cheniao, Mechuque, Tac,
Taucolon], Chelin, Chiloe, Coldita, Colocia, Deserters Isls [namely
Ahullini, Chuit, Chulin,
Imerquina,
Nayahue, Talcan], Dona Sebastiana, Guafo, Guapi Quilan Isls, Guar,
Laitec, Lemuy, Liliguapi, Linacre, Linguar, Lin Lin, Lipipe,
Llancahue, Llingua, Maillen, Meulin, Pelada, Puluqui, Quehui, Quenac,
Quenu, Queullin, Quinchao, Redonda, San Pedro, Tabon, Teuquelin,
Tranqui
More
information on its website: https://www.iota-world.org/es/
The
DXCC program, which is a registered trademark of the American Radio
Relay League, is also a program of permanent diplomas that offers
diplomas in different categories according to the number of entities
contacted and confirmed, modes and types of operation (mobile and
QRP, CW. , SSB, Etc.) The DXCC program maintains an official list of
entities that may or may not be a country because for geo-graphical
or political reasons some places count as a country, the case of
Hawaii that despite being United States count as a different entity
or the Chilean Antarctic or Easter Island that despite being Chilean
territory count as different entities.
To
qualify for some of the Awards (Diplomas of the DXCC program you must
prove that you have contacted the entities indicated by physical QSL
cards to check a Card Checker (radio amateur volunteers who check
that everything is in order or electronically through the Logbook of
the World (loTW)
Information
about the DXCC program here: http://www.arrl.org/dxcc
Logbook
of the World here: https://lotw.arrl.org/lotwuser/default
How
a Dxpedition works:
The
group of operators or operator will try to spend as much time as
possible on the air and will transmit in all bands and so that their
respective licenses, the regulations of the country and the technical
aspects allow them. Its objective is to contact as many stations and
entities as possible and will be available to all radio amateurs in
the world who wish to contact them.
And
how do you participate?
Well
the main thing is to have patience, to STUDY and LISTEN A LOT before
you start talking silly. Inquire on the expedition's website about
the bands and modes in which they will be active, and the dates
between which the operation will take place. Help yourself with the
reports of the Cluster to see if there are stations in your country
that are making contacts, study the propagation reports for the date,
listen carefully, normally the operators work in SPLIT when they have
many stations calling them (they listen on one frequency and they
transmit on another) do not do the crazy calling where there is no
one to listen to them, have patience wait for your chance as the more
powerful stations leave because they already "worked" the
Dxpetition, when your possibilities increase. Many times the
operators also divide and call with some requirement: for example
Stations with Number 2 in the call, or callsigns, ending in M, or
only South America stations, etc.
Listen
and listen patiently your opportunity will come.

18
July - Nelson Mandela Day WHAT IS MANDELA DAY?
“What
counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what
difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine
the significance of the life we lead” –
Nelson
Mandela
Nelson
Mandela International Day was launched in recognition of Nelson
Mandela’s birthday on 18 July, 2009 via unanimous decision of the
UN General Assembly.
It
was inspired by a call Nelson Mandela made a year earlier, for the
next generation to take on the burden of leadership in addressing the
world’s social injustices when he said that “it is in your hands
now”.
It
is more than a celebration of Madiba’s life and legacy. It is a
global movement to honour his life’s work and act to change the
world for the better.
