EXPEDITIA DE LA CETATEA NEAGRA CODLEA

La drumetia tematica,  organizata la Cetatea Neagra de Asociatia Pro Codlea, in data de 14 mai 2011, au participat in jur de 90 de persoane cu varste cuprinse intre 4 si 70 de ani. A fost o drumetie minunata, unde cu totii ne-am simtit foarte bine, Cavalerii Teutoni ne-au insotit de-a lungul drumului si ne-au incantat cu costumele si recuzita lor.  Sus “in Cetate” prin frecventele undei radio s-a luat legatura cu mai multe  localitati din tara, cu  mai multe tari din Europa si nu numai.
S-a tras cu arcul, au fost lupte intre Cavaleri, am ascultat povesti despre Cavalerii Teutoni, etc.
Toti cei care au participat la aceasta drumetie au fost serviti cu tocana de cartofi si castraveciori murati. Multumim bucatarilor, a fost o tocana delicioasa.
Multumim celor care au participat. Ne-am intors cu veselie si voie buna din aceasta drumetie si ne dorim sa repetam asemenea actiuni.



 S-a utilizat indicativul YO6KNX/p in zona YOFF-177 (rezervatia naturala muntele Magura).  Am lucrat si pentru Cetatea Neagra pe care speram ca din iunie 2011 sa incepem sa o reconstruim pe baza planurilor originale pe care o fundatie din Germania le va trimite la Codlea in aceasta saptamana.
S-au facut peste 80 de legaturi in 7 MHz si pe repetorul de UUS R4. In QRP cu numai 10 w s-au lucrat statii din DL, HA, 9A, YO, I,LZ,SP,YU,ER,OK,UW1,S58,E77,LY,US5,PD0,EA.  Pentru R4 s-a folosit o statie portabila de 1 W .  Alimentarea s-a facut de la un acumulator auto de 12 V / 55 A.







Ne vom reauzi in iunie de la Cetatea Neagra de pe muntele Magura Codlei.  YO6CUF.Coatu Cezar

CETATEA NEAGRA-CODLEA

Vineri, 13 mai 2011, vom merge la Cetatea Neagra-Codlea, ruinele ei fiind amplasate la circa 980 m altitudine pe muntele Magura Codlei.  A fost construita la 1211 de cavalerii teutoni veniti impreuna cu sasii ce au intemeiat orasul Codlea.  Colegii nostrii de la asociatia Pro Codlea ne-au invitat si pe noi sa participam la aceasta aniversare (800 de ani de la constructia ei) prin deplasarea acolo si lucu cu statiile radio in US si UUS.  Fiind si in rezervatia Magura YOFF-126, vom da puncte pentru 3 diplome : Rezervatii naturale, Cetati medievale si SOS Natura.  Vrem, daca vremea este buna sa stam vineri si sambata acolo si sa facem si ceva cercetari arheologice, fotografii si repararea cailor de acces . Mai multe detalii in curand.


http://codlea-info.ro/inceputurile-municipiului-codlea/Intre anii 1211-1225 in Tara Barsei se afla Ordinul Cavalerilor Teutoni. Pentru apararea tarii ridica 5 cetati, intre acestea si Cetatea Neagra pe un varf de deal, de 980m, aflat la poalele Magurii Codlei. Cetatea se afla la asa-zisul Drum al Sasilor, drum care lega Tara Barsei de Provincia Sibiului. Cetatea este mentionata prima data in documente in 1265 ca si castro Feketewholum. Dupa retragerea teutonilor cetatea intra sub ocrotirea regelui maghiar. Printul mostenitor maghiar, Stefan se refugiaza in 1267 in Cetatea Neagra, din fata tatalui sau, Bela IV., trebuind in cele din urma sa se predea dupa o rezistenta indelungata. In anul 1307, contele Salomon de Brassou, care se rasculase impotriva regelui Carol Robert ocupa cetatea. Cetatea, pe care le-o incredintase rudelor sale, Johannes si Jakobus, fii lui Nicolaus Magnus de Rosnou, este predata de catre acestia in 1331 din nou regelui. Probabil ca la invazia tatarilor din 1345 Cetatea Neagra a fost distrusa si nu a mai fost reconstruita. Drumul Sasilor a fost abandonat, pentru ca noi drumuri legau acum Tara Barsei de restul Transilvaniei. In harta sa a Transilvaniei, din 1532, Johannes Honterus plaseaza la acest drum vechi si o einsydl, un adapost, o cabana pentru colonisti, care exista inca aici la acea data.

AMRS AWARD-AUSTRIA

The AMRS AWARD is an official award of ÖVSV, published by the AUSTRIAN MILITARY RADIO SOCIETY (AMRS) and considered of being one of the nicest looking awards in Austria. If you would like to fight for it, here are the rules.

Award rules:

1. You need a score of 20 points (Austrians need 30 points)

2. Valid are all contacts since January 1 th, 1961

3. Every AMRS member may be worked as often as you like but counts only 1 (one) point. BUT WATCH OUT.
!! There is an exception (see point 6) !!

4. Worked AMRS Club Stations, Contest Stations and Special Event Calls, will count 2 (two) Points. As already mentioned in pt. 2 " Valid are all contacts since January 1 th 1961 " we have them listed below! OE50AMRS, OE1XBH, OE1XRC, OE1XRC/90KK, OE1C, OE2XCW, OE2XCW/90KK, OE50XCW, OE2XRM, OE2XRM/90KK, OE50XRM, OE2M, OE3XBH, OE3XMA, OE50XMA, OE3XRC, OE3XRC/90KK, OE3C, OE3K, OE4A, OE4XLC, OE4XRC, OE4XRC/90KK, OE50XRC, OE4C, OE5XAM, OE5XAM/90KK, OE50XAM, OE5XCL, OE5XCL/90KK, OE50XCL, OE7XBH, OE7XBH/90KK, OE7XBH/WM05, OE7B, OE7F, OE8XBH, OE8XRC/90KK, OE2008B, OE2008C, OE2008P

5. “AMRS“ stations abroad either on military duty or even on vacation somewhere in the world counts for 3 (three) points. QSOs with an “AMRS“ station via satellite or EME count also 3 (three) points

6. If you work an certain AMRS member on DIFFERENT locations, EACH contact gives you 1 (one) or even MORE POINTS. e.g.:

OE8HFL (located in AUSTRIA) 1 Point
OE8HFL/5B4 (located in CYPRUS) 3 Points
5B4IJ (= OE8HFL) (located in CYPRUS) 3 Points
YK/OE8HFL (located in SYRIA) 3 Points

As a matter of fact you were working always the same operator “OE8HFL“ but you are getting 10 (ten) points for it. It's the callsign plus location what counts and NOT the operator!

EUROPA-DX-DIPLOM (EU-DX-D)

The basic idea of this award is a proportional combination of European and DX contacts in one calendar year.

It is issued for the following classes: 2x CW, 2x SSB and mixed modes.
A minimum of 50 points is required for the EU-DX Award per year;

20 points must be obtained by contacts with European countries and 30 points by contacts with countries outside Europe.

Each country counts one point for 40 through 10 meters, and two points on 80 and 160 meters.

All bands may be used.

European countries are defined in the WAE country list, non-European countries in the valid DXCC list.

Bonus points can be obtained for any additional block of four European and six non-European countries within the same calendar year.
Each year's score may be added to obtain the EU-DX 500 badge, stickers will be awarded for any block of 50 points, regardless of the annual scores.

Example:

 20 EU-points 2001 + 30 DX-points 2001 = 50 points for 2001,
 28 EU-points 2000 + 42 DX-points 2000 = 70 points for 2000,
 32 EU-points 1999 + 48 DX-points 1999 = 80 points for 1999,

total 200 points, i.e. four stickers.

Deutschland-Diplom (DLD)

The DLD Award is an official award of the German Amateur Radio Club (DARC) which is available to all licensed radio amateurs and short wave listeners (SWL).
The names of new award holders will be published in the DARC magazine „CQ DL“.
All members of DARC and its associated club VFDB and club stations of both organizations are issued with a District Location Code (DOK). To qualify for DLD, applicants must submit QSL cards from licensed radio amateurs showing a certain number of DOKs worked or - for SWLs- heard.
If an applicant has changed his or her call sign, e.g., because their license class has changed, but remains in the same country, then DOKs worked under the previous call sign will continue to count for credit towards DLD. 
a) DLD Award Classes and Modes
  1. DLD is issued separately for each amateur band.
  2. DLD is issued in different classes on each band as follows:
    DLD 100, DLD 200, DLD 300, DLD 400, DLD 500 (with lapel badge),
    DLD 600, DLD 700, DLD 800, DLD 900
    and DLD 1000 (with engraved badge of honor).
  3. For SWLs, the awards are known as DLD-SWL 100, DLD-SWL 200 etc. up to DLD-SWL 1000.
  4. All DLD Awards may be issued for mixed modes, or may be endorsed for single mode operation providing that is supported by QSL cards.
b) Conditions of Issue
  1. All modes permitted by the applicant's license may be used.
  2. The DLD Award will be issued initially when the applicant submits evidence of confirmed contacts with 100 different DOKs on a single band. For each additional 100 DOKs on the same band, the applicant may apply for the next class of DLD. Applicants may skip awards if they wish, i. e., it is not necessary to apply for a separate ward for each 100 DOKs worked.
  3. A DOK will only count if the station worked or heard is located in the Federal Republic of Germany at the time of the contact. Stations have only one DOK each and must only give out the DOK under which they are registered with DARC QSL Bureau. Special Event DOKs will be published in „CQ DL“.
  4. There will be a charge for the issue of the DLD Awards. Detail of charges will be published from time to time in „CQ DL“ and payment should be included with the application, or sent to the DARC in the form of a bank giro transfer.
