MARCONIAN CENTENARY AWARD ---> 100 years ago Guglielmo Marconi made the first
ever radio transmission across water from Lavernock Point (Wales) to Flatholm
Island (EU-124)  and the  first "DX"  between Brean  Down, Somerset  (G)  and
Lavernock Point (GW).  The Barry Radio  Society will be  issuing a  Centenary
Award for any operator or SWL  who works any two of  the three special  event
stations (GB100LP,  GB100FI and  GB100BD, see  above) marking  this  historic
event. Cost of full colour award is �4.00, US $8.00 US or 10 IRCs. Send claim
(contacts should be certified by two  radio amateurs) to GW0ANA (Glyn  Jones,
Nirvana, Castle  Precinct,  Llandough, Cowbridge,  Vale  of Glam.  CF71  7LX,
Wales, U.K.).

QSL 5A1A  ---> Anatoly,  UT3UY states  that "all  cards, verified  by  OM3JW,
IK2ILH, N4AA, JA2JPA  are OK for  DXCC. JA2JPA  can confirm  contacts for  JA
stations, IK2ILH for Italians, OM3JW for Europeans and N4AA for any  station.
So the  information that  cards signed  by N4AA  *only* are  OK for  DXCC  is
wrong".

QSL EU-167  --->  Cards  for Pessegueiro  Island  1996  operation  have  been
received from the  printer. QSL for  QSOs with  CT1EEB/p or  CT1CJJ/p is  via
CT1EEB,  either  direct  (Jose  Emanuel  Ribeiro  de  Sa,  P.O.Box  79,  3860
Estarreja, Portugal)  or  through the  bureau  (Jose, CT1EEB  accepts  bureau
requests at  ct1eeb@mail.telepac.pt); QSL  for QSOs  with CT1/WT2O/p  is  via
WT2O.

QSL HP1XBI ---> Jean-Michel,  F6AJA has the  logs up to  6 April and  reports
that direct cards  have all been  mailed. Cards for  HP1XBI/1 (NA-072,  28-31
March) have not been printed yet.

QSL HS9AL --->  Franco, I4LCK  reports that  cards for  HS9AL operation  from
Terutao Island (AS-126) will be mailed  within the end  of June. Franco  asks
not to send other requests along with HS9AL.

QSL IU2D ---> I2TZK is the new QSL manager for IU2D.

QSL VP8CTR ---> Dominik, DL5EBE is the QSL manager for all the contacts  made
by Roman (EM1KA) from Vernadsky Base.

QSL YI9CW ---> Tom, YI9CW made 65,000  QSOs and has already sent some  15,000
cards. He asks to be be patient because he is moving to a new house.

QSL ZS6/PA3DZN ---> PA3DMH is *not* the QSL manager for ZS6/PA3DZN  operation
last year. QSL is via PA3DZN (but DMH will forward the cards he has  received
to DZN). Alex,  PA3DZN will reply  to direct requests  in May. All  remaining
