INFO

9H Like announced in DX-NL 996 Felix, DL8OBC, and Matthias, DL4OCL, will be active from this very popular destination. They plan to be QRV also on AO-10 and AO-13 and via the RS satellites. I am very sorry that I forgot to mention that Felix, DL8OBC, is also a very good QSL manager since he automatically sends all cards via the bureau without waiting for the incoming QSLs!

A61AF AA6DC is the guest operator at this station in the moment. QSL via homecall.

KH3 KA3HMS/KH3 from Johnston Island has been worked in SSB on 14216 kHz on June 5. He reported to stay until June 11 and requests QSLs via his homecall. No further information as of yet.

TK/DK7YY Falk, ex DL7UTA, made approximately 4700 QSOs (500 of them with JA) during 100 hours of total activity running only 100 watts into a Butternut vertical. In the WPX-CW-Contest he participated in the 40 meter single band class and made some 1200 QSOs.

HAMRADIO June 28-30, 1996 This month there will be the HAMRADIO convention in Friedrichshafen at the Bodensee. Beside other activities there will be a DX meeting with wellknown guests, QSLs for the DXCC will be checked by Bill Kennamer, K5FUV, an IOTA meeting with DK1RV, the first meeting of the newly founded German DX Foundation (GDXF), a contest forum and many more.
