INFOS

YI96BIF: is a special event station on the occasion of the "Bagdad International Fair". Hans-Dieter, DL9KU, will be involved in the event from September 21 to 29, mostly in SSB, as YI9KU.

1S: Jaan, 9M2JJ, has received a licence from the Malayan authorities for an activity from Pulau Layang. The Spratly Archipelago is being claimed by several of the neighbouring countries. Instead of the usual 9M0 prefix, Jaan has been given a 9M6 - and has asked the authorities for a "proper callsign".

V63CO: Uwe, DJ9HX, has returned from Micronesia with 4654 Q's in his log. The cards will be sent out as soon as possible, via buro (!) if possible. To save paper and money you can apply for your card via PR (DJ9HX@DB0SDX) or via e-mail to jaeger@fh-heilbronn.de.

XY: Last week OH2BH was active as XZ2BH, also in the SAC Contest. The reason for his trip was primarily to prepare the November activity (16 to 25) by the Central Arizona DX Association.

D2: Alex, PA3DZN aka 9Q2L, will be active from Angola from the beginning of October for the next six months, first with TS-50 and vertical, then with beam and PA. For the low bands he will use, as usual, his wire antennas. Mostly CW, SSB and RTTY.
