Late news.

On 29.11.09 Milan Manzac OK1UDN became a Silent Key (R.I.P.) The latest report indicates that the Sun is finally waking up and most of the bands will become active later in the year. The report indicated that VHF, UHF and Microwaves could suffer some temporary blackouts, but his may be a good omen for the H.F. band.The 20 metre band has shown some improvement on a daily basis around 13.00 UTC. With this in mind we may be able to resume the Wednesday afternoon net to the U.S.A. Please listen at 14.30 on 21.385 MHz but if there are no conditions go to 14.290 MHz. If no contact is established the regular Echolink net will commence at 15.00 UTC. The Firac home page is now active again in a much modified form, however a number of problems need to be resolved, and the latest Firac information may not be displayed. I will attempt to provide a limited service and the minutes of the Friac working session have been published in both English and Italian. These will remain on the site until the end of the month.Thank you for browsing this site and my cricket page has been partially restored.
