GOOD TO KNOW
ARBE ---> The "Amateur Radio
Balloning Experiment", previously scheduled to take
place on 10 May, has been postponed to 17 May due to bad
weather. See 425 DX News #626 for the details; for
further information please email Tibor, IK2SAI (ik2sai@amsat.org).
ARMED FORCES DAY ---> The US Army,
Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard are
co-sponsoring the annual military/amateur radio
communications tests in celebration of the 53rd
Anniversary of Armed Forces Day. Although the actual AFD
is celebrated on 17 May, the AFD Military/Amateur
Crossband Communications Test will be conducted on 10 May
(local) so as not to conflict with the Dayton Hamvention
scheduled for the same weekend (May 17-19). The annual
celebration features traditional military to amateur
crossband communications test and the message receiving
test. QSL cards will be provided to those making contact
with the military stations. Special commemorative
certificates will be awarded to anyone who receives
copies of the digital AFD message from the Secretary of
Defense. Further details at http://www.arrl.org/contests/announcements/af-day/armdfrcs-2003.html.
DXCC NEWS ---> The following have
been approved for DXCC credit: OJ0/OE1ZKC, OJ0/JH1ARJ,
OJ0/AH7X, OJ0/JR4PMX (Market Reef, 12-16 July 2001).
EAST TIMOR OFF THE AIR ---> The
International Telecommunications Union had assigned the
prefix block 4WA-4WZ for use by radio stations within the
areas administered by UNTAET (United Nations Temporary
Administration of East Timor). This prefix assignment was
for the use of UNTAET as long as it existed, and was to
be released to the ITU at the end of its existence.
"Since the UNTAET organization's charter in East
Timor expired May 20th of 2002", The Daily DX
reports, "all ham radio operating authority also
expired on that date. A successor organization called
UNMISET does not have the same telecommunications and
other authority that UNTAET had; an emerging East Timor
government is expected to take over responsibility for
administrative things such as ham radio licensing",
but for the time being it appears that East Timor is off
the air. For DXCC purposes, UN Temporary Administration
of East Timor was added to the DXCC List with the
effective date of 1 March 2000.
NEW 10M CONTEST ---> The first
edition of the 10 Meter Italian Contest, sponsored by the
Mediterraneo DX Club (http://www.mdxc.org/contestitalia),
will be held on 17-18 May. Participation is limited to
Italian amateurs only.
NEW QSL ROUTES ---> The QSL Managers
Society (http://www.qsl.net/qslmanagers) was
created to protect and preserve Amateur Radio DX and
DXpedition logs and to make QSL cards available for all
such logs, no matter how old. In March 2003, the QSL
Managers Society was approached by Bob Young, K4JDJ about
taking over the logs that he was handling (many of them
were those from the late John Parrot, W4FRU) and on 5
April, Bob Schenck/N2OO and Skip Maze/N1IBM drove down to
Virginia to pick up 60 logs and some 100,000 blank QSL
cards. Thirteen new QSL managers were solicited among the
members of the QSL Managers Society to take over these
logs and on 23 April the logs and appropriate blank cards
were shipped to their new homes. The new QSL routes for
cards formerly handled by W4FRU and/or K4JDJ are the
following:

NOT THE MANAGER ---> Mats, JH6VLF is
not the QSL manager for DU1ZV. Cards should be sent to
either JA1BRK (bureau or direct) or via the Philippine
Amater Radio Assciation. Cards already received by JH6VLF
have been sent to JA1BRK. [TNX JH6VLF]
PIRATE ---> Ken Brown, N6KB (k.brown@jach.hawaii.edu)
is the trustee of club call NH7O, formerly KH7K. He
reports that KH7K "was revoked by the FCC shortly
after our club used the call in the 2001 CQ 160 CW
Contest", as "2X1 K suffix KH7 calls are
reserved for Kure Island". Ken reports he receives
QSLs for KH7K almost weekly, but "these QSLs are all
for QSOs that could have never happened. Most are for
bands that KH7K never operated on, and many are for dates
after FCC revoked the callsign". [TNX QRZ-DX]
QSL EM0U ---> Apparently there was
confusing information about the QSL manager for this
station. Alex, UT3UZ states that the official QSL routes
for EM0U are: for SSB and CW contacts via UT3UZ, for RTTY
and PSK contacts via UT7UW.
QSL VIA I2VGW ---> Gabriele, I2VGW
reports he is going to close the logs for his operations
as ID9/I2VGW, IH9/I2VGW, IG9/I2VGW (1996-1997), VK9NR and
VK5ASK (1998). Those who still need a card should sent
their request as soon as possible to Gabriele Villa, P.O.
Box 966, 20101 Milano - MI.
VI5WCP ---> Peter, VK3QI reports that
the recent VI5WCP operation from from Waldegrave Island
(OC-261) was on the air for 110 hours and logged 6698
QSOs (4326 SSB and 2372 CW). Most of the contacts were
made on 20m SSB (2709) and 30m CW (1165). The continent
breakdowns are Europe/2727, Asia/2086, North
America/1431, Oceania/411, Africa/23 and South
America/20.
WAICS ---> The Worked All Italian
Club Stations award (WAICS), sponsored by ARI Formia
(IQ0FM), is available to either licenced amateurs and
SWLs for working club stations (the new IQ prefixes) from
Italy. For further details please visit http://web.tiscali.it/ariformia/WAICS.htm
or e-mail ariformia@tiscalinet.it
(ARI Formia, P.O. Box 33, 04023 Formia - LT, Italy). [TNX
