Welcome to Tropical band

To most people the phrase "tropical bands" bring a pretty clear picture to mind - a bunch of shirtless guys playing calypso music. But to experienced shortwave DXers those two little words express the most challenging and enjoyable part of the radio hobby. The phrase kindles memories of a DXer's best catches and favorite QSLs, of exotic stations, music and of early morning listening sessions. (Don Moore)
I like the "Tropical band" name for new 60m allocation. (OK1RP)

Winter edition of THE 5 MHz NEWSLETTER by Paul, G4MWO now on-line

WINTER EDITION OF THE 5 MHz NEWSLETTER NOW ONLINE

The 2nd - Winter - Edition of The 5 MHz Newsletter has just been published and includes news and features about 5 MHz, including a chart of the current 5 MHz allocations worldwide.

You can freely access this latest edition of the 5 MHz Newsletter from Google Documents at

Although originating in the UK, the 5 MHz Newsletter invites world-wide interest, both in readers and contributors. Understandably all that we ask is when contributing items of news concerning new 5 MHz permissions or allocations, that the contributor can provide a means of official verification of such. Its size of course is dependent on news and other relevant contributions from 5 MHz operators and listeners around the world.

For those without Internet access wishing to have a paper copy of the 5 MHz Newsletter, a Self-Addressed Envelope (SAE) of sufficient size to take folded A4 sheets, together with adequate postage (or IRCs in the case of outside of the UK) will bring a copy of the latest edition. Requests should be addressed to the Editor, G4MWO, who is QTHR in the UK Callbook and on QRZ.com

Many Thanks and take care,

Paul, G4MWO
