REPOST:

OJ, MARKET REEF. Harry, OH6VM, (and along with members of the Finnish
Lighthouse Society) is once again active as OJ0VM from Market Reef (EU-053,
WWFF OHFF-0038, ARLHS MAR-001, WLOTA 0542) until June 13th. He is there
to do some lighthouse repair work. Activity will be on 80-10 meters using
mostly CW. QSL via OH1GPS. ADDED NOTE: Jussi, OH6KV, is also expected to
be active as OJ0KV during the same time frame.

OJ, MARKET REEF (News - Press Release). Jarmo, OH2BN, sent out the following
on June 6th [edited]: NEWS FROM MARKET REEF – OJ0-LAND – SEMI-RARE COUNTER
UP NORTH -- OJ0B operating period: June 6-13th, 2015 -- Market Reef, OJ0,
Grid JP90NH, is just a barren rock on the open sea between Finland and
Sweden. A piece of granite split between OH and SM representing CQ zones
14 and 15, with the Finnish side additionally counting for another DXCC
entity.
The Finnish Lighthouse Society (FLS) has been restoring the original
charm of this very important landmark which is today fully automated,
sending a warning light along a busy sea route. It is not surprising that
many OH hams have joined the FLS and cooperation between FLS people and
radio amateurs is quite extensive.
There are dedicated quarters on the reef for Amateur Radio with two
230VAC phases from a solar/diesel power source to provide 2 kW of energy
for visiting hams. The antenna setup for a successful DX operation is
provided by Martti/OH2BH, Timo/OG9X and Teemu/SM0W.
Pasi, OH3WS/OJ0W, is an ex-President of SRAL and current President of
FLS. Pasi can be contacted if you would like to activate OJ0-land. The
maximum number of members of an Amateur Radio team is four.
Two FLS hams - Harri, OH6VM/OJ0VM, and Jussi, OH6KV/OJ0KV, - will be
joined this coming week by six more hams: Niko/OH2GEK, Martti/OH2BH,
Pekka/OH2TA, Kim/OH6KZP, Juho/OH6ZZ and Jukka/OH8MSM.
They will be on OJ0 repairing all damaged antennas after a severe winter.
Additionally, they will go ahead with first-ever 2M EME (JT65B) activity
with tilt antennas from OJ0 while also keeping their 6M antenna fixed to
USA in case of a sporadic-E opening. When the moon is down, they will be
running MS.
OH6ZZ and OH8MSM will be in charge of EME operations while the rest of
the team will take care of HF CW/SSB and RTTY during all key openings after
making their HF antennas operational. This team of six will use the OJ0B
callsign.
2M Data: EME 144.123 – MS FSK 144.353
Antennas: 2x11H and 2x10V
Amplifiers: Tajfun 1000 and SPE 1.3 KW

The OJ0B team will also do some equipment testing as they plan to run
two new SPE 1.5 kW output solid-state amps weighing 7.5 kg (16 lbs),
ideally suited for a DXpedition. The spiky generator of the lighthouse
will be an ultimate test of amp survival.
The OJ0B 2M U.S. pilot is Joel, W5ZN. (email: w5zn at w5zn.org)
The OJ0B general pilot is John, OH5NZ. (email: oh5nz at sral.fi)

Some other operations are also scheduled for the summer months this year,
with Dietmar, DL3DXX, expected on Market Reef in August for his hideaway
on his 60th birthday. You will be able to congratulate Dietmar on his
important milestone at the beginning of a new low-band season – Dietmar's
specific love in Amateur Radio.
As the weather is a key issue for an always critical landing, the order
of events may be changed by Mother Nature.
OJ0B QSL via OH2BH. OQRS will be activated shortly.
