Την προσοχή σας παρακαλώ...

Δυο συχνότητες θα πρέπει να αποφεύγουμε τις επόμενες μέρες, για να μην δημιουργήσουμε πρόβλημα στα σωστικά συνεργεία που επιλαμβάνονται μετά την σεισμική δόνηση και την καταστροφή που προέκυψε στην Αϊτή.
Οι συχνότητες είναι 7,045MHz στα 40Μ και 3,720MHz στα 80Μ.
Ακόμα και αν ακούμε ότι δεν υπάρχει δραστηριότητα στις παραπάνω συχνότητες, δεν θα πρέπει να τις καταλαμβάνουμε, αφού η όποια επικοινωνία εκεί θα είναι ασθενής με φορητό εξοπλισμό και χαμηλή ισχύ…

From the CQ / WorldRadio Online Newsroom:

All radio amateurs are requested to keep 7045 kHz and 3720 kHz clear
for possible emergency traffic related to today's major earthquake in Haiti.

International Amateur Radio Union (IARU) Region II Area C Emergency
Coordinator Arnie Coro, CO2KK, reports that as of 0245 UTC on January
13, nothing had been heard from radio amateurs in Haiti, but that the
above frequencies were being kept active in case any Haitian hams
manage to get on the air, and in case of other related events in
surrounding areas, including aftershocks and a possible tsunami.

The following is from an e-mail from CO2KK:

A few minutes after the earthquake was felt in eastern Cuba's cities,
the Cuban Federation of Radio Amateurs Emergency Net was activated,
with net control stations CO8WM and CO8RP located in the city of
Santiago de Cuba, and in permanent contact with the National
Seismology Center of Cuba located in that city.

Stations in the city of Baracoa, in Guantanamo province, were also
activated immediately as the earth movements were felt even stronger
there, due to its proximity to Haiti. CO8AZ and CO8AW went on the air
immediately , with CM8WAL following. At the early phase of the
emergency, the population of the city of Baracoa was evacuated far
away from the coast, as there was a primary alert of a possible
tsunami event or of a heavy wave trains sequence impacting the coast
line at the city's sea wall ...

Baracoa could not contact Santiago de Cuba stations on 40 meters due
to long skip after 5 PM local time, so several stations in western
Cuba and one in the US State of Florida provided relays. CO2KK, as
IARU Region II Area C Emergency Coordinator, helped to organize the
nets , on 7045 kHz and also on 3720 kHz, while local nets in Santiago
de Cuba and Baracoa operated on 2 meters.

As late as 9,45 PM local time 0245 UTC we have not been able to
contact any amateur or emergency services stations in Haiti.

Amateurs from the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Venezuela were
monitoring the 40 meter band frequency, that I notified to the IARU
Region II executive Ramon Santoyo XE1KK as in use for the emergency,
requesting that 7045 kHz be kept as clear as possible ...

We are still keeping watch on 7045 kHz hoping that someone in Haiti
may have access to a transceiver and at least a car battery to run it.

All information that has so far come from the Cuban seismologists
tell us of a very intense earthquake, and also of the possibility of
other events following.

Following the advice of the geophysicists, we are keeping the 7045
and 3720 kiloHertz frequencies active until further notice
