Moon bounce from Antarctica

Craig Hayhow VK0JJJ is bouncing radio signals off the moon from Mawson to Antarctica.

Craig VK0JJJ achieved a 742,000 km hop when he made an EME contact with Peter Taylor G8BCG at Cornwall in England, on 4 May 2013 at 0720 UTC.

Two nights later he contacted via 'moon bounce' Bo Nilsson SM7FJE in Sweden. He said it seemed now like everybody in Europe and the USA wanted an EME contact.

Now that the equipment and software has been proven a success, more EME contacts will be made.
