                            >>>  BS7H 1997   <<<

The BS7H 1997 DXpedition shut down at approximately 06.45 UTC on 3 May,  much
earlier than planned. The reason for the early shutdown has been reported  by
Tim Totten, N4GN, who got the following information by telephone from several
of the BS7H 1997 team members in Guangzhou.
"As has  been  widely  reported  in  the  media,  the  Philippine  government
announced on 28 April (within hours of the BS7H/MM departure from  Guangzhou)
that three  Chinese  military ships  had  been spotted  in  the  area  around
Mischief Reef in the Spratly Islands.   Mischief Reef is claimed by both  the
Philippines and China.  Philippine President  Fidel Ramos immediately  lodged
an official diplomatic protest with Beijing,  and ordered increased Navy  and
Air Force presence in the area.   Although the Spratly  Islands lie some  300
miles to the south of Scarborough  Reef, news of  the escalating tensions  in
the region  was immediately  relayed to  the BS7H  crew.   The expedition  to
Scarborough actually involved two P.R.C. Ocean  Bureau vessels (one  carrying
the BS7H team with an Ocean Bureau crew, the other carrying only Ocean Bureau
personnel).  The two Ocean Bureau  captains were disturbed  by the news  from
the Spratly Islands, but everyone agreed  to press on toward Scarborough.  On
the first day  of on-the-air operations  by BS7H (30  April), two  Philippine
military reconnaisance jets overflew the reef at low altitude. Then, late  on
1 May, a Philippine Navy ship arrived  at the reef, eventually followed by  a
second Philippine military vessel. Philippine Navy  officers visited each  of
the three BS7H operating sites. [...]  In discussions with the BS7H team  and
the captain of the lead Ocean  Bureau vessel, however, the officers  asserted
the Philippine position that  Scarborough Reef lies  within the 200  nautical
mile Exclusive  Economic  Zone  (EEZ)  claimed  by  the  Philippines.  It  is
important to note  that the  Philippine officers  admitted that  there is  no
Philippine claim to the reef itself.   The captain of  the lead Ocean  Bureau
ship, of course, stated the Chinese position that Scarborough reef is  P.R.C.
territory and provides the baseline  for a 12  nautical mile Territorial  Sea
(TS) surrounding  the reef.   At  first, the  Philippine  Navy seemed  to  be
concerned that the amateur radio operations of BS7H were somehow an 'economic
activity' subject  to treatment  under an  EEZ  claim similar  to  commercial
fishing or oil  drilling.  But  after observing the  pileup operations,  this
concern was apparently satisfied.  Still, the Navy officers insisted that  it
was O.K. for the P.R.C. ships  to safely pass through the  Philippine-claimed
EEZ, but that they should not stop in any one place for a prolonged period of
time. The captain  of the  lead Ocean  Bureau ship  was unable  to reach  any
agreement with the Philippine Navy officers on this point.  Finally,  wishing
to avoid a further escalation of tensions, the Ocean Bureau captains made the
decision to  leave the  reef and  return to  Guangzhou, cutting  the  planned
seven-day BS7H operation down to only three days".

(Nigeria, Gulf of  Guinea group) and  AF-078 (Senegal,  Atlantic Coast  South
group) have been confirmed. QSL cards  of 5N4ALE (issued by either DK1RV  and
the operator himself) and 5N4BHF (both  operating from Bonny Island,  AF-076)
and 6W2/F6BUM (who was active from Karabane Island, AF-078) will be  accepted
by IOTA checkpoints.

VK0IR: THE BOOK ---> It will  be available on  15 May at  Dayton and by  mail
from K7BV thereafter. The  book is hard  cover, 224 pages  and is full  color

+ SILENT KEY +  It was with the greatest  sadness that we have learnt of  the
passing  of  well-known DXer Sam Canter, W6TSQ, who died a few days ago at 85
years of age. Sam was a ham for almost 70 years.
