PY0FF ---> The team on Fernando de Noronha will not use FT4,  preferring "to

However,  in an effort "to support the  classic RTTY community",  they  will
operate RTTY on  19 October  after about 9 UTC.  Look for PY0FF on +/- 21105
kHz, listening split up 2 kHz and more.

+ SILENT KEY + Henry "Doc" Van Kets, ON4IZ  passed away on  29 September  at
the age of 86. Born in 1938 and licensed since he was 16 years old, he was a
gynecologist  at the  University of Ghent Medical School.  His studies and a
demanding professional life limited his involvement in the hobby, and it was
not until he retired in 1998 that he had more time for amateur radio. He was
still very active in  SSB and particularly CW  (FOC member #2069),  and  his
primary interests were HF DXing and  IOTA chasing.  He was on the DXCC Honor
Roll with 340/381 (current/total)  credited Entities in the Mixed standings,
and on the IOTA Honour Roll with 1114 island groups confirmed. [TNX ON5NT]
