ON100PES - België op Antarctica
20-05-2009
Soumis par: ON5EX
België viert in 2009 een dubbele gebeurtenis op wetenschappelijk gebied. Het is reeds 100 jaar geleden dat Adrien de Gerlache aan boord van het schip de ‘Belgica’ de leiding had over de eerste Belgische wetenschappelijke expeditie naar het Antarctische continent (1897–1899). Op 15 februari 2009 is op Antarctica het nieuwe onderzoeksstation ‘Princess Elisabeth’ plechtig ingehuldigd. Dit nieuw wetenschappelijk onderzoekstation is het eerste in zijn soort dat aan het ‘zero emission’ concept voldoet.
De Haspengouwse radioamateurs ‘Trudo Radioamateurs Club – TRC’ willen deze samenvallende gebeurtenissen in de verf zetten door het hele jaar 2009 door ON100PES te activeren. De roepnaam bestaat uit het samenvoegen van drie elementen: ‘ON’ als prefix voor België, ‘100’ is de 100-jarige verjaardag voor de poolexpedities en ‘PES’ is het letterwoord voor ‘Princess Elisabeth Station’.
Een bijzondere dubbele QSL-kaart wordt toegezonden aan alle stations die hun QSL naar het clubstation ON4TRC sturen. Een award is eveneens voorzien voor OM die op vijf banden met dit station gewerkt hebben (HF + 2m/70cm).
