         very soon [425DXN 412]. "Because of weather conditions over the next
         few months, it is winter over here, it  would not be a good idea  to
         go south so we will be spending some  time on the east coast to  get
         to know the yacht", he says.  "We hope to move  in the direction  of
         Knysna/Mosselbay in  September when  the worst  storms are  over.  I
         believe choosing the  right weather window  for the  visit would  be
         crutial but  that would  make predicting  the  actual dates  of  the
         operation very difficult". In the meanwhile he is working to get the
         necessary  landing   permission.  Rudi,   ZS6VER/V51VE  and   Katti,

responsible how devoted  he was to  making amateur  radio a  natural part  of
daily life for the EA8 stations of Las Palmas and their families".
