Hi, guys,
A group of radio amateurs including BA4TA, BA4TB, BA4RS, BD5RV, BA4RN, BH4REQ, BH4RLO will activate Pingtan Island (AS138) from July 24-30. This operation is going to include all operational satellites that are capable on V/UHF. That will cover HO68, AO51, VO52, SO50 AO27 etc.
Callsign will be B4R/5 during IOTA contest and homecall/5 in regular operaion. QSL via homecall.
We are looking forward to having you on the birds.

Hi Michael, OK on your Pintan IOTA contest...what is the grid?? I don't see AO-7 in your list! Well, I am in the capital (LH31PL) of Madagascar and have some excellent passes on AO-7 covering Asia including parts of BA like this morning at 02:55 Z in mode B. I am at 1200m and a full view into Asia and can pick up a signal at 01 degree easily. My uplink is set at 432.150 LSB and I usually adjust the doppler and keep my downlink fixed at 145.950 USB all with 5W! It would be fantastic if I could work a BA station on AO-7 and count on your help. 73/Karl 5R8KH

OK, the locator will be OL95vn.
Equipment: XCVR: IC910H LNA: AR2 MSP432VDG-160 Antenna: VHF: 10ele Yagi * 2 array(3WL) UHF: 23ele Yagi * 2 array(8WL)
It will be fantastic to have DX contact logged. Our equipment is also easy for picking up signal at 0 degree. Will check the possibility later.
