                          ************************


9U5CW ---> In nine days of activity  from  9U5CW's  QTH  [425DXN 267],  Peter
(ON6TT/5X1T)  and Alfredo  (EA1FH/9U5CW)  logged more than  3,000 QSO, 350 of
which in RTTY, 42 on  160 metres and 233 on  80 metres. Peter left in Burundi
(until the end of August) a vertical for low bands as 9U on 80 and 160 metres
is more wanted than Uganda.

JD1BIE ---> In  1993-94 JD1BIE  was in both Minami Torishima (from 26 October
1993 to 26 January 1994 and again  from 25 March to 5 April 1994) and in Oga-
sawara (from 26 January 1994  to 25 March 1994 and  again from 5 April  to 29
November 1994). Now his call is JE4RHL (Shigeaki Miyamae 3-13-28-1 Monzen-ma-
chi, Iwakuni,  Yamaguchi 740,  Japan) and JA8FCG is no more the QSL manager.

MARION ISLAND ---> Until 5 July  Chris, ZS8IR, logged 3670 QSO,  working  113
Countries, 48 ITU and 35 CQ Zones. Chris doesn't like nets and is active in
SSB/CW/RTTY on HF bands and 6 metres.

PALESTINE --->  An operation,  which was  linked with  a United  Nations  aid
project, took place from the Gaza Strip from  14-22 June. The  operators, who
signed their  homecalls /ZC6,  were JA1UT,  JA1UPA, JA8CDG, JA8RUZ/KH2Y,  and
G3NOM. Some 6,000 QSOs were made mainly on 40, 20 and 15 metres (CW/SSB/RTTY)
Ray, G3NOM reports  that "it may be of  interest to note, from the DXCC point
of view, that the Palestine Authority has a National Assembly, issues its own
passports  and postage stamps, has  its own police force and judicial system"
and that "the Ministry  of Posts and Telecommunications is the authority that
assigns frequencies and licences for telecommunications services in Palestine
The regulations  for the amateur radio service are already established, three
Palestine nationals have been licensed and arrangements have been made to set
up an amateur  radio station (ZC6MPT)  in the MPT headquarters (equipment and
antennasss have been donated by the JA1UT group)".

POSTAL PROBLEMS  ---> Nodir, EY8MM reports that amateurs resident in some ex-
USSR republics (Kirghiz, EX; Tadzhikistan, EY;  Kazakhstan, UN) have problems
with local post.  Nodir suggests to use  the bureau, but for  direct requests
he suggests to not send  green stamps but 2 IRCs (air mail costs are about 90
90 cents for EX, 72 cents  for EY and 72 cents for UN) and to not use SAE but
pre-addressed stickers. For further information  contact EY8MM (Nodir M. Tur-
soon-Zadeh,  P.O.Box  303, Dushanbe, 734001  Tajikistan,  CIS or  via e-mail:
ey8mm@tarl.td.silk.glas.apc.org).

QSL 4J1FS ---> The  QSL  managers for the activities from Malyj Vysotskij are
the  following:  4J1FS  (1988),  QSL via OH2RF;  4J1FS (1989), QSL via OH5NZ;
4J1FS  (1991), QSL via  OH2BU; 4J1FS  (1992), QSL  via OH2BU; 4J1FW and 4J1FW
(1992), QSL via AH0W/OH2LVG.

QSL CY0NSM ---> Ken, VE1RU reports that he has no more cards to  process  for
this station (last bureau QSL were sent on 10 June).

QSL II3R ---> QSLs for  this station  active during  the main contests  go to
IV3TMV.

QSL II3ARI ---> QSLs for this special station go to IK3GES.

QSL KG4MN ---> The QSL manager for this station is not WB2RAJ but Bob WB2YQH.
For those who already sent  the QSL to WB2RAJ it is not necessary to send du-
pes to Bob, while WB2RAJ will give him the envelopes received.

QSL OD5PN ---> Norby, LX9EG (Norbert Oberweis, 5, Cite Oricher-Hoehl,  L-8036
Strassen,  Luxembourg)  reports that he  has the complete log of Jamil, OD5PN
starting from from 27 July 1995.

QSL S92SS ---> The  address  for QSLs  is: Charles L. Lewis P.O. Box 522, Sao
Tome, Sao Tome and Principe, West Africa.

QSL UN7JX ---> N2AU is not the QSL manager for Nick, to which QSLs go via his
CBA.

to Wolfgang Stock, P.O.BOX W170, Woods Centre St. John's, Antigua.
