FO/F8DQL ---> A few days before
Jean-Baptiste, F8DQL became active from Tahiti in early
May, someone pirated his call (FO/F8DQL) on 30 and 20
metres CW. It was received with a 599+60db signal in
Paris at 14.00 UTC on poor antennas, that's why FO/F8DQL
was reported to be a pirate by French DXers [425DXN 575].
However the genuine F8DQL *did* visit his parents in
Tahiti and *did* operate as FO/F8DQL on 20, 15 and 10
metres CW. Complete documentation, logbook included, is
being sent to the DXCC Manager. [TNX F5NQL]
H44A ---> This is the National
Disaster Council station operating from Honiara (Solomon
Islands). "The station is only a training
station", The Daily DX reports, "and does not
QSL because of funding problems and its emphasis on
teaching new operators the basics of Amateur Radio for
emergency preparedness".
ITALY & USA ---> Next weekend
Metro Amateur Radio Club (MAC) and the Pisa Amateur Radio
Club will participate in a joint venture of international
significance. Niles, Illinois and Pisa, Italy are Sister
Cities and in an effort to bring the communities a little
closer, each club will set-up and operate amateur radio
stations from their respective leaning towers. Look for
K9Y (QSL via N9BOR) and IZ5AXT/TWR (QSL via IK5ZTT) to be
active on SSB and CW on 1-2 June. Latest information on
the event at http://www.qsl.net/mac. [TNX Metro
ARC]
K1B ---> The Baker Island operation
logged 95127 QSOs (CW/SSB 89898, RTTY 4708, PSK 446, SSTV
75), which according to Hrane, YT1AD is the "all
times record for operation from uninhabited island with
no facilities, and powered by generators". QSL cards
are expected to arrive from the printer around mid-June,
and to be sent out starting around the first week of
July. For further details (as well as links to on-line
logs) please visit http://www.kragujevac.co.yu/kh1.
On their way to Baker YT1AD (T25A), RZ3AA (T23A), RA3AUU

manager for neither GJ4TXB nor GJ0NYG. "The only

"are the ones made during our joint expedition on
EU-099 back in July 1991".
PIRATE ---> Phil, FJ5DX is receiving
cards for contacts made on 10 metres either CW and SSB.
Please note that he is not and has never been active on
that band. Currently he operates on 20 and 6 metres only,
as the antennas for 40, 15 and 12 metres were dismantled
in mid-February 2002. [TNX La Gazette du DX]
PT2PS ---> After being active as
PU2DXS from 3 January 2001 through 14 May 2002, Philippe
Schmitt is now PT2PS. The interesting news is that he is
13 years old, and has been licensed since he was 11.
Philippe operates SSB (10, 40 and 80m) and CW/PSK31 (10,
15, 40 and 80m).
QSL BV2A ---> Please note that the
"current" K2CM (George Allen) is NOT the QSL
manager for BV2A or any other station. The
"original" K2CM, who was a QSL manager, died
many years ago, but George is still receiving a lot of
cards for BV2A. [TNX N2OO]
QSL D44AC ---> Cards for the 21
March-3 April have been received from the printer and are
