5U     - Giorgio, IU5HWS will be active again as 5UA99WS from  Niamey, Niger
         between 1 May 1 and 15 June.  In his spare time  he will be QRV  on
         40-10m FT8 and SSB. QSL via LoTW, or via EA5GL. [TNX DX World]
9X     - Harold, DF2WO  will be active again as  9X2AW  from Rwanda on  5-15
         May. He will operate CW, SSB and digital modes on the HF bands  and
         6 metres. QSL via M0OXO's OQRS. [TNX The Daily DX]
G      - Celebrating the  85th anniversary of the  First Class CW Operators'
         Club  (https://www.g4foc.org/),  special callsign  GB85FOC  will be
         used by a number of different members during the month of May.  QSL
         via G3SWH's OQRS (https://www.g3swh.org.uk/decision.html) and LoTW.
G      - Radio amateurs in the United Kingdom and Crown Dependencies may use
         a special Regional Secondary Locator on 1 May-30 June  to celebrate
         the Coronation of King Charles III  (alternatively, they can append
         the suffix  "/23C"  to their callsigns).  The RSL - i.e. the second
         letter in the  existing callsign  (D, I, J, M, U and W,  plus E for
         Intermediate licences) - may be replaced by the letter  'R';  where
         no RSL exists,  the letter 'R' may be added.  Club Log will map all
         the  GR/MR/2R  callsigns  to England,  unless a  callsign exception
         exists for the station.  A number of awards will be available;  see
         https://rsgb.org/coronation for the details.
         Also taking part in the celebrations will be a number of GB special
         callsigns, including stations from England  (GB0KCC, GB0KCH, GB1KC,
         GB2KCC, GB3KCR, GB4HCC, GB4KC, GB4RLS), Jersey (GB3KCJ) and  North-
         ern Ireland (GB0KC, GB8KC, GB8KCC, GB9HRH)  to name a few.  QSL, if
         any, via operators' instructions.
HK0/A  - Look for HK0/PY7RP, HK0/PY7XC and HK0/PY8WW  to be active from  San
         Andres Island (NA-033) on 4-11 May.  They will operate SSB, CW  and
         FT8 on 40-6m, with a focus on the higher bands and  a dedicated  6m
         station running 24/7.  Also, look for HK0/PY8WW to be QRV from Pro-
         videncia (NA-049) on 1-3 May.  QSL HK0/PY7RP via Club Log's OQRS or
         direct to home call (and later LoTW);  QSL HK0/PY7XC  via  LoTW  or
         direct  to PT7WA  (he will also  upload his log to  Club Log);  QSL
         HK0/PY8WW via Club Log's OQRS or direct to home call.
VP8    - Special callsign VP8KCC will be used from the  Falkland Islands  on
         6-7 May to celebrate the Coronation of  King Charles III.  [TNX The
         Daily DX]

VP0 CALLSIGNS ---> Under  the new licensing regulations,  VP8 callsigns will
only cover the Falkland Islands.  South Georgia  and  the South Sandwich Is-
lands have been allocated the prefixes VP0G and VP0S,  respectively.  In the
near future the British Antarctic Territory (which includes the  South Shet-
land Islands and the South Orkney Islands)  is likely to be using  VP0  pre-
fixed callsigns as well.

ZD9BV ---> After an extended hiatus,  Andy, ZD9BV  has been QRV  again  from
Tristan da Cunha since 22 April.  For the time being he operates CW on  15m.
QSL  direct  to  Andy Repetto,  5/A Harris Street,  Tristan da Cunha,  South
Atlantic, TDCU 1ZZ, via Cape Town, South Africa.


月日の経つのが速い気がするのは年齢のせい?
何もしないまま4月が終わってしまった感じだが、新しい環境で新生活を始めた人にとっては、4月がとても長く感じたかもしれない。
私は再就職2年目になるが、4月がとても速く終わったと感じるのは良いことなのだろう。

5月は、日の出時刻が4時台になる。そして日の入り時刻は19時台になる。
バンドコンディションはハイバンドが夜の時間帯に良く聞こえるようになってくる。
日没直後にハイバンドで北米が強力に入感する日があると思うが、残念ながらその時間帯にシャックにいることは少ない。
21時以降に、ハイバンドでヨーロッパ方面が強力に聞こえるようになるだろう。


4月30日付 神戸新聞から抜粋。

5月2日 八十八夜
5月6日 立夏
5月21日 小満

   (日の出)        (日の入り)
5月1日 5:10 18:44
5月10日 5:01 18:51
5月20日 4:53 18:59
5月31日 4:48 19:06



4月29日(土)TGCネットのキー局は3エリア姫路市の局。
強く聞こえていたが、残念ながら今回もチェックインできなかった。
パイルアップがおおきくて、なかなかピックアップしてもらえない。
このところ長らく空振りが続いている。

3月後半の運用は、18日、21日、25日、26日、29日、30日の6日間。
マルチバンドで、ワールドワイドに楽しむことができた。
早朝の14MHz, 7MHzでアフリカ方面が強力に聞こえた。
そのあと時間には28MHzのコンディションがとても良かった。
FT8に出る局が多いためか、それともまだみなさんあまりワッチしていないためか、
28MHzでカリブ方面、中米方面の局が聞こえているのに呼ぶ局はそれほど多くない。
残念だったのは、CY0S(セーブル島)の信号を聞くことができなかった。
