- Meteorscatter February / March 2012 -
Only minor showers hit the Earth in February - March. The most significant is
Capricornids / Sagittariids (peaking February 2nd), a medium-ZHR daytime
shower; its radiant culminates at relatively low elevation in northern
hemisphere skies. Sporadic meteors have reached their seasonal minimum,
but MS contacts are still possible, especially in early morning hours.
Have a look to MS predictions for February - March 2012, at our
MMM MS-Propagation page. The page will be updated end of month for February
and March. [MMMonVHF]

FROZEN NEWS FROM RADIO ARCALA, CR2X, OH8X AND OH0X
It is today, February 1st, when the Northern Village of Arcala is gripped by an
arctic frost weighing down on the massive antenna structures. The thermometer
has hit a 2012 low - an icy reading of minus 27 C (minus 16.6 F) which makes the
towers turn rather slowly. Slow are the movements of those frozen people as
well.
Radio Arcala has decided to send the Frozen Four (FF) of OH2BH, OH2MM, OH2PM and
OH8NC to more southerly latitudes as their balancing act. FF will soon embark on
a three week long operating stint taking them to the Azores to activate CR2A and
CR2X along with CU2KG and CU2KH in a variety of configurations in the ARRL CW &
SSB Contests, in addition to the CQWW 160M SSB Contest.
Up in the Frozen North, their mothership OH8X will be piloted by OH6KZP in the
ARRL CW Contest and by OH6UM in the ARRL SSB Contest. Moreover, the team of
OH6CT, OH8WW, OH8KTN and OH8GDU will be at the controls in the WPX RTTY Contest
on February 11-12. Please note that Kim, OH6KZP, 33, is the latest addition to
the team at Radio Arcala. See
