>Reuse of EDXP information is welcomed and encouraged by all direct recipients of EDXP; those who represent DXing groups may distribute EDXP within their respective organizations for editorial and research purposes. The reuse of EDXP data for commercial applications is acceptable, provided that arrangements have been negotiated in advance. Reuse of EDXP information by groups who do not receive it directly is not permitted. EDXP is NOT posted on public access servers, and is intended to be a contributory service to the global SW DXing community.

>Greetings! From a cold, but sunny Melbourne, welcome to another EDXP. They say that time flies, and I forgot to plant the broad bean seeds. I guess there's still a chance, but with mid-winter officially in the past, spring is around the corner.
>
>And with spring, the first of the international broadcasting schedules for the W96 period have arrived,. And more are expected. Dan Ferguson, from IBB in Washington, advises that the next HFCC Conference will be in August, which will set out provisional schedules for many participating broadcasting administrations, for the W96 winter season. The current ZX96 HFCC document is massive, and I would strongly recommend it to anyone with an interest in HF broadcasting. It's usually available for direct downloading via the SWL: area on CompuServe's HamNet Forum.
>
>I intend purchasing the ITU's disk-based HF broadcasting schedule for the W96 season - again, this is a massive file, which comes on a 3.5 inch disk, compressed.
>
>EDXP.. some recipients of EDXP have asked whether we could vary our objectives to allow the inclusion of selected "loggings", of unusual and/or interesting SW stations. The answer is "yes", and there is no need to modify our existing Rules! Loggings are OK, provided that they do not refer to "routine" observations - they should relate to extended schedules, changed schedules, new channels new, languages, new services, special programs, etc. This applies to international and tropical bands broadcasters.
>I do not feel that EDXP should attempt to imitate the good work being done by other electronic DX newsletters, which already provide an excellent base for representation of general loggings and QSL details.
>
>There has been comment about the negligible interest from Australia in EDXP (and electronic DX newsletters in general).It seems that the Internet "revolution" in this country hasn't started to turn yet, and comparisons with other countries having much larger population densities may be invalid. The DX movement in Australia is quite fragmented, with no "umbrella" organization, and several groups are in operation. Many hobbyists are members of more than one group. The ARDXC is the oldest (founded 1965), but membership has contracted to less than 100 - at its peak, membership was almost 800 in the 1970's. The mean age of ARDXC members is 58 years, and there is only one member under the age of 21 years. Information from the other Australian Clubs on age profiles and actual membership numbers hasn't been provided.
>
>One problem facing Australia is that we have a very dispersed population. A well known Australian verse stars off with: "I love a sunburned country, a land of sweeping plains..." And that is what Australia is - much of it is red desert, most of us live along the eastern seaboard. Internet access to people in the outback, and away from regional centres, is expensive, as there are few Internet Access Providers offering local-call dial up facilities. Unlike most other countries, our local telephone call charges are untimed - I may speak for 24 hours (or for ever!) for 24 cents! However, many rural users of Internet facilities are forced to use expensive, timed telephone access, which can be very costly, articularly if 2400 Baud rates are required. This is on top of the usual connect charges incurred with IAP access.
>
>Overall, formal electronic delivery of DXing type information in Australia has not been accepted generally, and I venture to suggest that the general activity level of hobbyists is also low, with little new blood coming into the hobby. The ARDXC Web site has had some 2000 hits since it was set up earlier the year, but not one new Australian member emerged

>SOLAR ACTIVITY.
>
>During May, very low to low solar activity was observed. The monthly sunspot number for May was 5.6, one of the lowest yet in the decline of this solar cycle. Early in the month there were quite a number of regions visible n the sun giving prospect of a relatively high sunspot number. However, the month closed with a long interval with the sun being without sunspots.
>
>A feature of solar activity this month was the appearance of four reverse polarity spots - an indicator of the coming Cycle 23. These were short-lived and did not contribute greatly to the monthly sunspot number. `
>
>Traditionally, the end of a solar cycle and the start of the new cycle is defined by the smoothed sunspot number reaching its lowest value. Beyond solar minimum, the smoothed sunspot number begins to rise again and the new solar cycle is underway.
>
>The smoothed sunspot number is determined by the monthly values for the last six months and for the next six months. Hence its value cannot be determined until six months after the date. And to be sure of having reached its minimum, it is necessary to see the smoothed value rise for several months. So, we can never be sure of solar minimum until some eight or nine months after it actually occurs.
>
>There are other ways to get some idea of the time of solar minimum. The main technique is to look at the magnetic structure of sunspot regions. Near solar minimum, regions can be classified as belonging to the "old cycle" or the "new cycle" according to their magnetic structure. Solar minimum can then be estimated according to whether the new or old cycle regions are dominant. There is a general transition from a situation before minimum where there are few new cycle regions; until after minimum when they are most numerous.
>
>May has brought the unusual number of new cycle regions, especially at higher latitudes on the sun. So are we very close to the minimum? Despite the observations, the answer still depends on personal opinion. But there appears to be some strength of opinion forming to suggest that minimum has finally arrived.
>
>For the last two years, the IPS statistical predictions of sunspot number have been showing April/May 1996 as the time of minimum. Richard Thompson, the PSD staff member responsible for solar cycle predictions - believes that minimum is likely to occur within the next three months. This opinion is based on the number of regions seen in May, the length of time that we have been seeing new cycle regions, and the statistical projections of sunspot number. Patrick McIntosh, a US solar observer with 40 years of experience, also believes that minimum has occurred. He feels that, in past solar cycles, the minimum has occurred close to the month that new cycle regions have become dominant. Also in the USA, Big Bear Solar Observatory suggests that Cycle 24 is underway, because of the number of new cycle regions, and because of other indicators.
>
>But are these opinions correct? We need a further eight or nine months of monthly sunspot numbers to be sure. But the events of May, at least, bring us close to the start of Cycle 24. Each next cycle, produces its share of surprises. We can be sure that Cycle 24 will not disappoint us!

>INDONESIA. I received today a QSL from RRI Dempasar for a 1974 report (22 years in the mail!!!), 153 days after f/up. The FD letter and completed ppd card was filled in by the Station manager, and he sent letters in both English and Indonesian. The important thing is : they are no longer on SW (since Oct 1993) and only on MW(1206) and FM....The SW era from Bali is
>over!! Incidentally, this is the 5th of 12 reports that I sent out in March 96, for reports from 12-22 years old!!! It goes without saying that G. Dexter's motto---"You should always send out one more f/up...." does work!! (Dan Henderson).

>INDONESIA. Voice of Indonesia, Jakarta, observed on 9525 at 0831 in EE with three questions to win a trip to Indonesia! Strange night as usually I can hear them in EE quite well but I had a little bit of co-channel QRM from 9520 and so I could not catch exactly what the three questions were except the first one:
>
>"Where is Indonesia". I also could not copy when the deadline
>for the quiz is but the info is to be sent on post card or faxed. Now they did they did gave a Fax # and you might check on this. The woman seemed to say 62213457132. She gave it twice but I still can not say proof positive that was it. They gave a FAX number and you might check on this. This on 24 June. The reason I am sending you this is for two reasons:
>
>1. News of chance to win a trip to Indonesia. Have not heard about it anywhere but I missed three questions as not heard clearly and will not get another chance till next week. They gave a fax number which I cannot find in WRTH or PWBR 96 and so you might want to listen to the V. of Indonesia EE Program and check out to see if that is the correct number. They gave it as a way to send in your answers.
>
>2. Voice of Indonesia usually is in EE at 0800 and I usually listen to it from start to finish but I did not hear anything at 0800 and I just figured must be propagation. Well it was strong at 0831.
>
>RRI Ujung Padang which usually signs off around 0755 still here 0905 with Jakarta relay as parallel 15150 and 9680. Signal was better than 9680 and it abruptly went off at 0922 but then came back on with a vocal and not parallel 9680 or 15150. After the vocal it went back to being parallel 15150 and 9680. RRI Ujung Padang signed off at 0930 on 24/6
>
>Voice of Indonesia - I heard them at 0750 on 15150 parallel 15125 and nothing on 9680. I was interested in this 15125 because I had heard it last week on that frequency and nothing on 9680 and then one morning I just heard 15150 and 9680 so it cost me $2.65 to FAX Radio Japan to let 'Media Roundup' know as I had just given my report the night before. So here it is again but at 0826 upon return I hear nothing on 15125 and 15150 is good and now I am hearing 9680 weak signal parallel 15150. Strange indeed. Possibility they are testing something. This on 24/6. (Bruce McGibbon, 24/6).
