INFO

HP Gerard, F2JD, should be active for six months starting November 20.

XZ1N The XZ1N DXpedition impressed with very good signals on the low bands and a very good operating style. If there were more Europeans more disciplined and less people working XZ1N twice many more OMs would have had the possibility to work this DXpedition. Unfortu- nately there are many stations which should change to the citizen band (sri!) since they repeatedly called though the DX station had asked for another complete callsign already. However the operators of XZ1N showed much patience. QSLs via W1XT.

IOTA Eric, FK8GM, and Eddy, FK8CR, plan to be QRV as FK5M from Matthew Island (IOTA-new?) for 24 hours. They will land with a helicopter on December 3 or 4. The frequencies used in SSB will be 3790, 7075, 14195/14260, 21260 and 28460 kHz. CW and RTTY operation will take place on the usual DX frequencies. FK5M QSLs are handled by F6AJA.


QSL-INFO

QSLs of 7P8/OE2VEL are NOT managed by OE2DYL. The correct QSL route is via OE2GEN who also handles the QSLs for OE3S (WWDX CW Contest).

These are some QSL routes for the WWDX CW Contest:
