HONG KONG ---> The following comes from QRZ-DX: "The members of the Hong Kong
Amateur  Radio  DX  Association  ask  that,  contrary  to  the  new  callbook
information, DXers refrain  from adding  'China', 'P.R.  China' or  'People's
Republic of China' to the address of direct mail bound for Hong Kong.  Adding
a reference to China routes the mail through Shanghai, which can add a  month
or more  to  delivery time.  It  also increases  the  chances of  mail  never
reaching Hong  Kong at  all. Mail  addesses strictly  to  Hong Kong  goes  on
flights directly to Hong Kong."

MOTHER LODE DX/CC  ---Newly elected officers  of the  Mother Lode  DX/Contest
Club (http://www.infoany.net/mldxcc/) are Bill Snider, K6KM (President); Rick
Casey,  W6RKC   (Vice-President/Contest   Chairman);  Gary   Stilwell,   KI6T

http://www.qsl.net/cwsp/indexen.htm) as his QSL manager for the Australia Day

known address on Reunion  was Rene Allegre,  56 Rue de  Leconte de Lisle,  La
Plaine Bois De  Nefles, F-97411 Saint  Paul. However Jack  believes Rene  has
returned back to France.

QSL L4D ---> While editing Phil's  (G3SWH) message last week [425DXN 456]  we
unintentionally omitted one  fundamental line. Cards  for the 20-21  November
