Cyprus Amateur Radio Society

On the occasion of the Radio Amateur Kids Day on 16th June 2012, a special activity that could be especially interesting as a means of promotion of amateur radio amongst young operators and young potential radio amateurs.

A tropospheric balloon will be launched on 16th June (Saturday) at 11.00 UTC from W³oc³awek (Poland), and will carry out a cross-band repeater with the callsign SR0FLY.

145.587,5 MHz (downlink)
439.512,5 MHz (uplink)

The cross band repeater is a part of payload and mission of stratospheric balloon. Real range is a
radius of about 600 kilometers. So, is a real chance to realize QSO between stations...

located at the
distance of 1200 kilometers from each other.

Remember:

1. Only short QSO with your callsign and report,
2. Cross band repeater is working without any tones,
3. All QSO will be confirmed by special QSL card.
