PY0_sp - ZY0SK and ZY0SG [425DXN 299] went  QRT on 14  February at 10:15  UTC
         after some 10,000 QSOs. Operations from  St.Peter and St.Paul  Rocks
         (SA-014) had  initial  problems with  RF  feedback between  the  two
         stations (these problems prevented them from being active on  RTTY).
         Karl and Tino were  not able to  operate between 12  UTC and 18  UTC
         because of the extremely high temperatures.
S2     - Hannes, Joerg and Dietmar started their  operation as S21XX  [425DXN
         300]. Problems with  the generator were  fixed after  the first  two
         days. They have made some 10,000 QSOs so far (300 RTTY, 300 SSB, all
         others on CW). On 160 metres 700  QSOs have been made with Europe  &
         Asia and 23 with North America;  QSOs made on 80  and 40 metres  are
         2200 (145 with  North America) and  2500 (245 with  North America  )
         respectively.  Dietmar and  Joerg were expected  to leave on  Friday
         14; Hannes (S21XZ) will be active until 18 February.
V4     - Alex, W2OX is currently active as V47KP from St. Kitts (NA-104).  He
         will participate in the ARRL DX  CW and SSB Contests  and in the  CQ
         SSB 160 Meter Contest. QSL via K2SB.
W      - Pete, W2WI will be  operating from Long  Beach Island (IOTA  NA-111,
         USI NJ001S) from 12 to 16 february.
W      - Herb, KE7PB and  John, NL7TB  will activate  Bradford, Robins  (both
         Multnomah County, OR), Cascades and Hamilton (both Skamania  County,
         WA) Islands on 26 February starting 17.30 UTC. QSL via home calls.
ZC6_GAZA Ray, 9M2OM (ex-9M2/G3NOM)  reports that  a small  group of  Japanese
         operators (Yoshi, JA1UT; Jiro, JA3UB; Teru, JA3TXZ), who are members
         of  the   recently   formed  IARV   (International   Amateur   Radio
         Volunteers), will be setting off for Palestine on 11 February. Their
         mission will  primarily be  Phase 2  of a  humanitarian aid  project
         started last June in the  Gaza Strip. Due  to the above  commitments
         there is only a 50/50 chance  of operation this  time. There is  the
         possibility of an operation from the Gaza Strip (Palestine) from  12
         to 14  February:  Yoshi, Jiro  and  Teru hope  to  assist  Palestine
         National operators to activate ZC6MPT from the HQ of the Ministry of
         Posts and Telecommunications in Gaza City (operation is likely to be
         confined to 20 metres SSB around 14.190 MHz).  This will be followed
         by a visit to the West Bank  from 14 to 16 February, possibly  using
         own call/ZC6 call-signs. QSL via JA1UT.
ZL7    - Lothar, DJ4ZB is currently active (on  SSB, all bands) from  Chatham
         Islands (OC-038) as ZL7ZB. QSL via home call.
