E44/HA1AG ---> The 4-member Hungarian team made 40430 QSOs (9971 SSB, 29715
CW, 744 RTTY) in less than nine days. The band breakdowns are (band/QSOs)
160/1579, 80/2817, 40/4956, 30/3557, 20/7876, 17/4084, 15/5926, 12/4480,
10/5155. The stations who were able to work them on all of the nine bands are
262. The log search (http://www.okdxc.cz/e44) now covers all 40430 contacts.
[TNX PA1AW]
EA RTTY CONTEST ---> It is sponsored by URE (Union de Radioaficionados
Espanoles) and will take place (10, 15, 20, 40 nd 80 metres) between 16 UTC
on 3 April and 16 UTC on the 4th. The rules are available from the Contest
Manager (Antonio Alcolado, EA1MV) at alcolado@redestb.es
QSL 1A0KM & HV4NAC ---> QSL manager Francesco Valsecchi, IK0FVC reports that
he is used to processing (and mailing) these cards in batches once a week. He
can rely on his friends from the Roman DX Club for help and this modus
operandi has proved effective. If you do not receive your card(s) within a
reasonable time, it is because Francesco has not received your request. He
asks DXers to refrain from e-mailing reminders to him, as this cannot speed
up the process.
QSL 3V8BB ---> The address of the station is P.O. Box 2055, Bir-El-Bey,
Tunisia, but the actual QSL route for 3V8BB depends on the date and time of
the QSO, as guest operators have their own QSL routes. Cards for contacts
made during the 1999 ARRL DX SSB Contest should be sent via I5JHW.
QSL 5R8PR & 5R8OP ---> Cards have been received from the printer and QSL
managers (respectively F6BFH and F6AOI) have started replying to direct
requests received so far. Please note that they will pay return postage out
of their pockets, as green stamps and IRCs will be used to buy clothes,
school books and medicines for the children living in a small village near
Antananarivo. [TNX F6BFH and Island On The Web]
QSL H44AL, VK4AFL, VK4BKM ---> Laurie Pritchard, VK4BLE (WIAQ QSL Bureau
Manager) has been advised by VK4AFL and VK4BKM that they do not wish to have
their QSL cards sent via the VK4 bureau. They will accept only direct QSLs
(cards for H44AL are to be sent to VK4AFL). If there are any questions please
contact the VK4 QSL Bureau via e-mail (wiaqqsl@powerup.com.au). [TNX VK4BLE]
QSL MANAGERS REFLECTOR ---> It is devoted specifically to active QSL Managers
and it NOT intended to be another list for listing QSL routes and queries for
QSL information. "This should be a comfortable place for us to share
information, resources, tips, experiences, problems and solutions", Larry
Wilson, KE1HZ (lwilson@cyberportal.net) states. To join this new e-mail list
send a blank message to join-QSL-Managers@XC.org [TNX KE1HZ]
QSL (NOT) VIA NE8Z ---> As of 9 March Rick Dorsch, NE8Z is *no longer* the
QSL manager for HC6CR, HD6CR, HC6FG and HD6FG. "Mail theft in Ecuador has
made the passing of logs impossible and they are not able to send me logs via
e-mail", Rick reports. All past, present and future QSOs can be confirmed via
their direct address: Roberto Camacho (HC6CR/HD6CR) and Maricela de Camacho
(HC6FG/HD6FG), Casilla 614, Ambato, Ecuador. Please note that NE8Z will
continue to act as QSL manager for HC1HC, as Alfredo is able to communicate
with Rick via e-mail with logs and/or other information. [TNX NE8Z]
QSL VIA WA5KBH ---> George Carr, WA5KBH reports the mail forwarding from the
United Kingdom for QSL cards to his UK calls has expired. Cards for G0WEW and
G0/WA5KBH now go to his stateside address. George was in the UK between 1990
and 1996. [TNX WA5KBH]
