***************************** GOOD TO KNOW ... ***************************
*************************
5A28 LOG ---> The 5A28 Log Search is now available on the 5A28 DXpedition web
page at <http://www.point.at/point/5a28.htm>. They made 11,404 QSOs,
including the first RTTY contacts from Libya for 30 years.
BRAZILIAN ISLANDS WEB PAGES ---> Further information about the forthcoming
operations from Ilha Grande, SA-029 (by ZW1A, ZX1A and ZV1A, 3-5 October)
[425DXN 333] and Ilha das Couves, SA-028 (by ZW2E, 8-10 October) [425DXN 333]
may be found respectively at <http://www.geocities.com/SouthBeach/Lagoon/
7193> and <http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/Lab/4160>.
DXPRESS ---> As of 1 October the new editor of DXPress will be Rudy van
Dalen, PA3GQW (Kleinpolderlaan 120, 2911-PB Nieuwerkerk a.d. Yssel,
Netherlands; E-mail: pa3gqw@worldaccess.nl). Many thanks to Dick Grolleman,
PA3FQA who has been the editor for the past four years and three months.
HH2PK ---> It has been reported [425DXN 333] that Ivo, HH2PK is now active as
5B4ADA from Cyprus. Zack, W9SZ reports that "Ivo Pezer's call was HH2AW.
HH2PK is Pat, who I assume is still in Haiti and will be in the upcoming
contests. Ivo often used Pat's station for contesting - that may be where the
confusion came from!". We apologize for any inconvenience this may have
caused our readers.
NA-059 & NA-158 ---> John Minke, N6JM says that his IOTA DXpedition to Dutch
Harbor, Fox Islands (NA-059) [425DXN 332] was a bust: "There were almost no
signals the first day so I thought maybe the next two days would be better",
John says. "No, they were worse. The result of three days of checking the
bands amounted to no log entries at all!". He did not attempt to activate an
island in Kachemak Bay (NA-158) as the weather was cold and wet and "with the
bands the way they are it just wasn't worth even trying".
QSL EU-083 ---> Tony, IK1QBT reports that all the direct cards for the
Gallinara Island (EU-083) operations in June [425DXN 317] have been mailed.
QSL EU-127 ---> DJ3XG, DF5WBA and DL6CGC report that the cards for their May
activity from Neuwerk Island (EU-127) [425DXN 305] have all been sent through
the bureau.
QSL YC8SHQ/P ---> Doc, K7SO reports that QSL cards for Chris, YC8SHQ/P, who
is currently active from the town of Saumlaki on Yamdena Island in the
Tanimbar group (OC-???) [425DXN 333], should be sent to Pastoran Saumlaki,
Maluku Tenggara, 97664 Indonesia. Father Chris is a missionary and will be
there for at least three years.
VK9WM & VK9WY ---> The Willis DXpedition went QRT around 20.00 UTC on 21
September after a grand total of 42,275 contacts. QSL to ODXG Willis Effort,
P.O. Box 929, Gympie, Queensland 4570, Australia.
+ SILENT KEY + It was with great sadness that we have learnt from The Daily
DX of the passing of Phil Williams, 5W1AU. He had been the President of the
Western Samoa Amateur Radio Club and operated the QSL bureau out of his own
pocket from 1971 until May 1997 [425DXN 315].
