<P><FONT face=Tahoma><STRONG>PI9CAM</STRONG> uses the 25m dish of the Dwingeloo
observatory and they will be looking for Earth-Moon-Earth (EME) contacts on
Sunday, <STRONG>April 18</STRONG>.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Tahoma>Located in the Netherlands in grid square JO32ET the
magnificent 25 metre dish was built in 1956. At that time it was the only fully
rotatable radio telescope of that size in the world. The dish and housing weigh
120.000 kg. F/D of the dish is 0.5. Further information at <BR></FONT><A

<P><FONT face=Tahoma>The operating times will be Sunday, April 18, 0730 - 2100
UTC and they will be running:<BR><STRONG>23 cm: 65 W @ feed<BR>70 cm: 300 W @
feed</STRONG></FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Tahoma><STRONG>They are especially for stations on 70 cm who are
trying to work Arecibo. Maybe you can work them too! One good Yagi and 25 W is
enough using the WSJT software JT65b</STRONG>.</FONT></P>
