http://www-dx.deis.unibo.it/htdx/jt1y/  The team plans to upload the logs  to
the Web on  a daily basis,  in order  to let  amateurs check  them while  the
activity is  taking  place.  At  all events,  log  checking  will  be  surely
available after the operation is over.

H44    - The call sign for the all-band effort  from Temotu in the CQ WW  WPX
         SSB Contest [425DXN 358] will  be H44RY.   This operation will  take
         place from the H40AA DXpedition site (see below), but it will  count
         for Solomon Islands DXCC credit (IOTA  OC-100) because it will  take

         31 March. QSL via OH1RY. <TNX N4GN>
H44    - The call H44DX has been assigned  for use from Honiara (the  Solomon
         Islands' capital) as the H40AA DXpedition operators pass through  on
         their way to  and from Temotu.   Because of  the operators'  varying
         travel schedules, the  H44DX call may  be heard on  the air  before,
         after, and  even during  the H40AA  operation. Contacts  with  H44DX
         count for Solomon Islands DXCC credit (IOTA OC-047). QSL via  OH2BN.

425 DX NEWS: THE ARCHIVE ---> All the previuos issues of 425 DX News are  now
available in zipped files (each of them contains 50 issues). Download them at
http://www-dx.deis.unibo.it/htdx/425/bulletin.html

H40AA CO-ORDINATORS ---> In order  to help the  operators maximize the  short
openings on the most critical paths  from Temotu, particularly Europe,  three
regional co-ordinators (G3ZAY, K6GNX and K4MQG) have been appointed. They can
be reached via  e-mail for any  questions and/or comments  related to  H40AA:
eupilot@dial.pipex.com (Martin,  G3ZAY); k6gnx@telemetry.com  (Bill,  K6GNX);
gdixon@infoave.net (Gary, K4MQG). <TNX N4GN>

H40AA TX  FREQUENCIES  ---> Look  for  H40AA on  the  following  frequencies:
1.824.5, 3.504, 7.004,  10.104, 14.024,  18.074, 21.024,  24.894, 28.024  and
50.104 MHz CW; 1.824.5, 3.775, 7.045, 14.195, 18.135, 21.295, 24.945,  28.395
and 50.104 MHz SSB; 14.083 and 21.083 MHz RTTY. <TNX N4GN>

QSL A45XL  --->  Bob,  G4LVQ  reports that  Chris,  the  operator  of  A45XL,
apologises for the  delays in  sending QSL  cards due  to unforseen  personal
difficulties. Chris has however promised  he will send  cards out within  the
next six/eight  weeks. If  anyone wishes  to send  a QSL  card or  perhaps  a
duplicate, there are two alternatives: the first is to send to G4VUO via  the
RSGB bureau, the second is direct to A45XL care of G4LVQ (Robert Williams, 25
Upper Carr Lane, Calverley, Nr.Pudsey, West Yorkshire, LS28 5PL, UK) - please
note that G4LVQ is *not* the QSL manager for Chris, he will just forward  the
envelopes to Chris unopened. <TNX G4LVQ>

QSL GI/EI7NET (EU-122) ---> QSL Manager Declan, EI6FR reports that all direct
QSLs received  for the  WestNet DX  Group 1997  operation as  GI/EI7NET  from
Rathlin Island (EU-122) have been answered. The cards for every other station
appearing in the log have been sent to the bureau. <TNX EI6FR>

QSL L4D (SA-065) ---> Phil, G3SWH reports he still has the logs and cards for
the November 1993  SSB only operation  on 14 and  21 MHz by  L4D from  Blanca
Island (SA-065),  November 1993.  This is  one of  the operations  where  the
original operators  failed  to  sendout QSL  cards  and  the  IOTA  Committee
obtained copies of the logs, funded the  cost of the QSL cards and  appointed
Phil as  QSL  manager. QSL  via  G3SWH either  direct  (Phil  Whitchurch,  21
Dickensons Grove, Congresbury, Bristol, BS49 5HQ, United Kingdom) or  through
the bureau. <TNX G3SWH>

QSL T99DX ---> Marcus, DL3NCI has finally received the cards for his activity
as T99DX from Bosnia (1997 CQ  WW CW Contest). QSL  via DL3NCI either  direct
(Marcus Grampp,  Kirchenweg  4, 90419  Nuernberg,  Germany)  or  through  the
