OK1DQT - HAM RADIO (160 M - TOP BAND)

    Od 14. srpna jsem QRT v mém současném QTH na Guamu kvůli uzavření bydlení v této oblasti. Ve 200 rezidencích bylo obsazeno pouze 20 domů. Budu se stěhovat do nového QTH na kopci, který má mnohem, mnohem lepší rozjezd pro antény, ale omezený prostor! Doufám, že budu brzy QRV na 40-10 metrech a nakonec snad i na 80/160. Během mého posledního roku působení na Guamu se ale poněkud zmenší možnosti využití prostoru a já budu bez přístupu k přijímacím anténam, které jsem měl během posledních tří roků.

It appears that my luck with housing has run out. For a long time, we had known that my housing area was on the “chopping block”, since there are currently less than 20 residents among nearly 200 housing units. It was just not fiscally responsible to keep keep this housing open, when most people chose to live closer to the Naval Station further south on Guam.

We received notice last week that the Navy is closing the housing area. We are now scrambling to try to get moved as soon as possible, before the school year starts, and before my next round of chemotherapy starts.

What does this mean for NH2T and KH2/N2NL? It almost certainly means that I will be QRT on 80 and 160m, at least outside of major contests. On the other hand, I hope to remain active on the other bands. Unfortunately I’ve already had to start taking down antennas. The Beverages will stay in the jungle until later this year, to be recovered after my chemo.

Moving to new housing does open some new opportunities for me. I will be moving south, closer to the Naval Station. It opens up whole new opportunities for WW2 exploration; new territory where the worse of the fighting took place. For that reason, there is some excitement along with disappointment with his coming move.
