My take on the event a few days ago from Glaisdale in the North Yorkshire Moors. The location is situated in a valley between Whitby and the Dalby Forest. The Aurora Borealis was visible by the naked eye but was far better through the camera. Read More
Last Sunday the V55LA Team composed of 10 operators: LA7THA, LB5GI, LB1QI, LA3BO, LB8DC, LA8OM, OE7PGI, LA9KKA, LB1FI and LA7WCA had a preparatory online Teams meeting.All is going well in the team, discussions went around the equipment readiness, the antenna setup and computer network. We should be able to use Clublog realtime QSO feature which should avoid some stress and dups.
Our QSL Manager Charles M0OXO has setup the “Request your QSL card” via M0OXO OQRS only: https://www.m0oxo.com/oqrs/logsearch.php?dxcallsign=v55la
Logsearch will also be found on Clublog: https://clublog.org/logsearch/V55LA

In a joint statement on Oct. 15th, NASA and NOAA announced that Solar Maximum is underway. If you saw last week’s geomagnetic storm, you probably reached the same conclusion.Good news: Solar Max is not a narrow moment in time; it is a lengthy phase of solar activity that can last for 2 or 3 years. More aurora outbursts are likely in 2024 and 2025.
” IARU celebrates its centenary in 2025. Since its founding in Paris, France, IARU has worked tirelessly to promote innovation in amateur radio and to encourage the growth of the service in communities throughout the world.
IARU has represented the Amateur Services at international and regional regulatory bodies by relying on our volunteers who come from many countries and communities. IARU has been a sector member of the ITU since 1932 and the work of our volunteers has continued since that date with unmatched success; as was highlighted with the accomplishments at WRC-23.
Leading up to our centenary year, we should take time to reflect on the remarkable achievements of radio amateurs over the last 100 years. While the Amateur Services have been in operation for over a century, 1924 was the first year that intercontinental amateur communication became more or less commonplace. Since that time radio amateurs have made unparalleled advances in technology related to the Amateur Services that play a critical role today in sustaining world-wide communications and allow us to respond to global emergencies. ”

PLEASE THINK TWICE BEFORE TO WRITE TO GIULIANO IK2VUC:
May be you are not in log because you didn’t got the QSO (and you have to try again) or, if you aren’t in log with a bunch of other operators made the QSO after you, may be we are disconnected and you should wait till midnight (log back-up) to see your call.
