Hello Zdenek

March 30th the team will start traveling to Kenya. If all will go well we can be QRV April 1st. TX frequency is 144.124 MHz and 5Z4EME always TX 1st. RX frequency is 144.124 MHz AND 144.084 during JA window (with a second receiver). On 144.084 we will give priority to Japanese stations. Usually we won't transmit 73 to reply RRR's, we will call another station or we call CQ. We will give priority to callers who have a record of DXpeditions or another contribution to moon bounce or to this expedition.

Some tips to makes it more easy for us to work you:

Please call us when you CAN copy us. DON'T stop calling us when we are in QSO with someone else (after a QSO we can only call another station if he was transmitting that sequence before). From time to time we have to turn antenna's (by hand); than we have to stop 1 or 2 periods TXing, please continue calling. Condx will be vy good April 3-5, so don't wait till the end of the expedition to call us! After April 6th it's possible we are sometimes away for safari. 

Hope to see you !
