IW1DIM]
LIGHTHOUSE WEEKENDS ---> A list of
stations participating in the National (7-8 August) and
International (21-22 August) Lighthouse Weekends is
maintained by Jim Weidner, K2JXW at http://www.waterw.com/~weidner/ld.htm.
[TNX K2JXW]
OOOPS! ---> The 3C0R DXpedition to
Annobon Island (AF-039) is scheduled to take place
between 14 and 24 SEPTEMBER (not July, as mentioned in
425DX 428!). Thanks to Des, G3LCS for detecting the typo.

reports a lot of activity over the last few days with
several DX countries being heard in Europe (DU, VQ9, LU,
PS, ZS, FR, FG, HK, VP5, XE, CX, KP, VK, ZF, V7). Three

QSL 3D2SJ ---> The address for Fr
Steve, 3D2SJ/T30ED is Fr Steve Dives MSC, P.O. Box 1354,
Suva, Fiji. Brian, VK5FV reports that "there is no
outward bureau operating from Fiji (Box 184 is a receive
only address). Fr Steve has received approximately 100
bureau cards and to answer them directly would incur an
unreasonable financial penalty".
QSL 5H3RK --> Maurizio, IK2GZU (who
was active as 5H3/IK2GZU in February) has received
several cards for 5H3RK. Please note that he is *not* the
QSL manager for this station.

BY7KR, BY7KS for contacts made on 17-18 July (40, 20 and
15 metres) should be sent to P.O. Box 771, Guangzhou,
510120, People's Republic of China. The four calls were

Game in DongGuan. All of the operators were teenager
students, in most cases novices. [TNX BD7NQ]
QSL E30HA ---> Antoine, F6FNU is the
new QSL manager for E30HA for all stations except from

his services as QSL manager. You can get in touch with at
MARC.NOGENT@wanadoo.fr.
YI7KRN ---> Bernie McClenny, W3UR,
Editor of The Daily DX, reports the following: "Many
people are asking about the legitimacy of YI7KRN who has
been extremely active since Saturday. Word from the Iraq
authorities is that all operations must take place from
the club station. The operator (Goran) at YI7KRN is
giving his QTH as Saqiz, which is located in the
'Northern No Fly Zone' and is highly unlikely to be
legitimate". The address mentioned for QSLling is
Box 66815/314, Saqiz, Kurdistan, Iraq.
ZS8D: HELP NEEDED ---> Chris R.
Burger, ZS6EZ reports that "the Prince Edward Island
Management Committee has refused permission for Deryck
Yelverton, ZS8D to erect his tribander on Marion Island.
Deryck has been active with a resistively-loaded
broadband dipole, but his signal leaves much to be
desired. The tribander and amplifier were donated by the
NCDXF, and will provide a substantial improvement in
signal strength. The tribander is assembled, and ready to
be erected if permission is granted". Chris will try
to have he decision reconsidered and he is looking for
two types of support: 1) Anybody that can supply
*substantial information* about the bird strike hazard
associated with rotary beams and 2) General shows of
support. "If they can see that there really is
global demand for activity from Deryck, and that real
antennas are necessary, they may relent". Please
send your messages direct to Chris at crb@nanoteq.com. [TNX
