TZ6BB QRT ---> Fernando, TZ6BB (EA4BB) has been
reassigned to Nigeria and
will go there on 8 September. "I was kind of
expecting this, though not so
soon", he says. This means that TZ6BB will go QRT
from Mali on Sunday (7
September) evening. He will be back to Mali for a
few days by mid November,
"but my task then will be to dismantle the station,
pack all my things and
then return to 5N land to stay. I will of course do
my best to be on the
air from there, but I need first to sort a license,
QTH, station etc. Not
sure how long that is going to take, but I'm afraid
it won't happen
overnight. I am leaving some of my radio equipment
(including a nice HF
transceiver) behind, here in Mali, as a little
present to a local ham in
the hope he will keep Mali active on the bands in
the future. Let's see
what happens". [TNX TZ6BB]
