GOOD TO KNOW - Edited by I1JQJ & IK1ADH
3B9R ---> The 31 March-10 April 3B9R
operation from Rodriguez (AF-017) logged over 47,000
QSOs. It seems there was some pirating of 3B9R on 160
metres after their sunrise QRT: according to Garry, NI6T
the last contacts on top band were made at 02.01 UTC on 5
April (with KD9SV), at 01.41 UTC on 6 April (with UY1HY),
at 01.56 UTC on 7 April (with K4EA), at 01.58 UTC on 8
April (with K1BW), at 00.40 UTC on 9 April (with UA9FAR)
and at 00.14 UTC on 10 April (with OM2XP). QSL via N7LVD.
[TNX DX News Sheet]
6A1A ---> For the readers who have
asked: this station was activated for the second time on
24-25 April by Tarek Abdallah (SU2TA/6A1TA), Said Kamel
(SU1SK/6A1SK) and Hossam El Shenawy (SU1HM/6A1HM)
operating from Sharm El Sheikh in the Sinai peninsula,
Egypt. QSL via F5KAM.
C91RF ---> Rei, DL6DQW/C91RF reports
he was active from Maputo on 23-25 March and 29-30 March
(1600 QSOs), while his activity from Benguerua Island
(AF-072) took place on 26-28 March. Power supply on the
island was available only between 6.00-12.30 and
14.00-20.00 local time, but he was able to log some 1000
QSOs. [TNX The Daily DX]
DU1/DL2GAC ---> Bernhard, DL2GAC is
back home in Germany. He was unable to get to Batan
Island (OC-093) in the time he had available because of
changes in reasonable transport arrangements. Bernhard
only operated from the Calamian Group (OC-090) for a
couple of days on this trip. He did not work too many EU
stations but had more success into North America. [TNX
9V1RH]
LT5V ---> The new address for the
North Patagonia DX Group (LT5V) is P.O. Box 37, 8332
General Roca, Rio Negro, Argentina. This address can be
used also for LU8VCC (Alex), LU7VFJ (Julian) and LU3VED
(Martin). [TNX LU8VCC]
P51BH ---> Martti Laine, OH2BH was
active as P51BH between 14.36 and 16.40 Korean Time on 21
April. The operation covered 14 MHz CW and SSB plus 21
MHz SSB, and 263 stations got through. The first JA QSO
was JA2DO, Europe OH5MBF, Oceania KH6WU and the United
States W6WKE. The documentation will be sent to the ARRL
shortly. QSL via OH2BH (Martti J. Laine, Nuottaniementie
3D20, 02230 Espoo, Finland). Audio from this operation
can be heard at http://www.qsl.net/9k2hn. This was
Martti's sixth visit to North Korea. "While
discussing the future of amateur radio in a longer term
perspective", he says, "an immediate allowance
was made to test the equipment": the operation took
place from the telecom center premises, "with North
Koreans climbing a 150-ft. tower to hoist the antennas.
The antennas were left right there together with the
Yaesu FT-847 equipment. It is just a matter of switching
the power on - when the time is ripe - to allow North
Korea to join the ranks of amateur radio". No
advance information was given because, Martti says,
"during these several years of DX missionary
efforts, it has become obvious that if you are able to
work on a project in peace, the best overall results will
be achieved. Many major efforts are typically hampered by
competing forces who have a hard time accepting the
success of others". [TNX N4GN]
QSL 4M5I ---> Luis, YV5ENI says that
his QSL manager (IK6SNR) will reply to all direct
requests for the recent 4M5I operations from Los Monjes

contacts) or CT1FMX (CW and RTTY contacts). [TNX CT1AXS]
QSL E4/G3WQU ---> Peter, E4/G3WQU
reports some difficulties with incoming QSL cards:
"Callbook 1999 gives an address in Jerusalem, but as
the call is G3WQU, the country is shown as England. I
have been receiving some addressed 'Jerusalem, England,
UK', but only because the post office in UK is vigilant.
Note please that Jerusalem is in Israel". At all
events, his new and correct address is Peter McKay,
UNIFIL, P.O. Box 75, Nahariya 22100, Israel.
QSL EK7DX ---> Karen, EK7DX his
currently using F5LGQ's address for direct cards. Please
note that F5LGQ is NOT the QSL manager for this station -
he just collects the envelopes and send them to Erevan
through a different route. He asks DXers to write
"EK7DX" on the envelopes, which should be sent
to Daniel Barot, 5 Rue de la Coix Mouclet, F-79400
Exireuil, France (no bureau cards please). [TNX F5LGQ]
QSL FT5ZH ---> Gil, F5NOD reports
some 25 kilograms of FT5ZH cards have just been mailed.

will be processed within the end of May. QSL via F6KDF.

this special Marconian station, which was activated by

(either direct or through the bureau). [TNX IK5ZTT]
QSL VK9XX & VK9YY ---> Charlie,
W0YG reports that "all QSL cards received direct
have been answered. I keep current each day with QSL
requests for both stations. I am receiving many QSL
requests WITHOUT return envelopes. Cards received in this
way will be answered through the bureau."
QSL VQ9CV ---> Please note that cards
should be sent to ND1V's most current address, which is
Robert Wright, 1409 Eaglestone Arch, Chesapeake, VA
23322, USA (the address in the latest callbook is no
longer any good). [TNX ND1V]
QSL VIA OZ1PIF ---> As of 1 April
1999 Peter, OZ1PIF is the new QSL manager for OX3LG,
OX3LX and OX3UB. [TNX OZ7C]

Sheet reports that the UK price of a letter up to 10g for
zones 1 and 2 (outside Europe) has increased from 43 to
44 pence since 26 April.
XU7AAP ---> This was the "more
logical callsign" used by Jani, YB0US during his
most recent activity from Cambodia ("XUAAP" had
been announced, see 425DXN 416]. QSL via N2OO. [TNX N2OO]
ZL9CI VIDEO ---> There are now three
