5U - Niger on 60m band by Antonio, EA5RM

Hello,

thanks to Paul, G4MWO I am able to share this news as follows:

Whilst in a meeting with officials of the Niger telecoms regulator, ARTP (Autorité de Regulation des Telecommunications et de La Poste du Niger), to discuss his March  5U5R  DX-pedition, Antonio, EA5RM was informed that 60m access in the country to all Niger amateurs was now possible under the WRC-15 allocation of 5351.5 – 5366.5 kHz and its subsequent footnote.
 
The 5U5R Sixty Meter activity is expected to be around 5360 kHz using CW and SSB. Unfortunately access to Six Meter is not possible for the 5U5R DX-pedition which takes place from 8 -21 March using all bands and modes.


E-Mail from Antonio yesterday Wednesday to Paul, G4MWO:

"Hello Paul, first QSO on 60 meters from Niger were done yesterday. Today I plan to do a few more, I am testing some things in this location so I am going to do only few demonstration QSO. Real operation will start on March 9th. 73! EA5RM"



73 - Petr, OK1RP
