frame, but cards for those activities should go to 9K2RA
either direct (Kuwait Amateur Radio Society, P.O. Box

from Mount Athos, except for SY2A (operated by Monk
Apollo a couple of years ago). [TNX SV1DPI and IK3ZAW]
VP8ROT ---> Mike, GM0HCQ confirms
that VP8ROT from Rothera (the British Antarctic Survey's
base on Adelaide Island, AN-001) "is currently being
activated by one of the summer base staff and I will be
acting as the QSL manager. Due to the restrictions on
operating from a base, I will be unable to send any
requests for skeds to the base. I am still waiting on
some further information regarding the operator who is
working the station, and once known I will be publishing
the details on my site at www.gm0hcq.com". [TNX VE3LYC]
