The following is an abstract of a longer announcement recently circulated on
the Internet. The Kingdom of Bhutan has completed the long awaited
Telecommunications Act of 2000 which authorizes amateur radio. An

N0MJ, N1DG, OH2BU, ON4WW, RA3AUU, UA3AB, W0GJ and W3WL) has been invited by
the Ministry of Communications for the initial introduction of amateur radio
in Bhutan, May 1-12, 2000. Three CW, three SSB and one RTTY station will be
active around the clock. Further details are expected in due time.
4S - John, NZ9Z will be in Sri Lanka (AS-003) between 1 and 23 April. He

HS - The IOTA DXpedition to Koh Nu in the Malay Peninsula South East
Group (AS-???) [425DXN 461] is now confirmed to start next week
with the special call E29DX. The team is expected to leave Bangkok
on 6 April and the expedition will continue until 15/16 April. A
special licence has been issued - it includes 160m and 80m
frequencies, and allows digital modes, but not WARC band operation.
The main effort will be to give first time contacts to as many
stations as possible, therefore most operation will be on 10, 15,
20 and 40 metres CW, SSB and RTTY using maximum 100 watts output.
It may be possible to run two or three HF stations simultaneously
at times. The frequencies allocated on the low bands are
1.834-1.850 MHz, 3.524-3.526 MHz and 3.534-3.536 MHz. There is an
awareness of the demand for LF QSOs with Thailand, but the
logistics of getting suitable antennas up are very difficult, and
LF operators should not expect too much on this operation. If any
serious LF operation is possible, it will came later in the
DXpediton. QSL via HS0GBI (P.O. Box 1090, Kasetsart, Bangkok 10903,

A.R.A.N.C. ---> The following comes from Tim Totten, N4GN: "The International
Amateur Radio Union (IARU) has officialy announced that Association des
Radio-Amateurs de Nouvelle-Caledonie (ARANC) has been confirmed as the newest
IARU member society, effective 22 March 2000. Due to the timing of the voting
process, the first full UTC date for ARANC's membership was 23 March, making
this the effective 'event date' for DXCC purposes. The result is that QSOs
with the Chesterfield Islands on or after 0000 UTC, 23 March 2000, are
expected to count toward the new DXCC entity. This corresponds to the date
and time when the TX0DX operation began. The full text of the IARU news
release can be found at http://www.iaru.org/rel000323.html"
INTERNATIONAL LIGHTHOUSE/LIGHTSHIP WEEKEND ---> This year it will take place
from 00.01 UTC on Saturday 19 August until 23.59 UTC on Sunday 20 August.
Forty stations located in eleven countries have already confirmed their
participation in the weekend. Those who intend establishing a station at a
lighthouse, lightship or maritime light are invited to send the details
(callsign, QTH and QSL information) to Mike Dalrymple, GM4SUC
(gm4suc@compuserve.com). The list of participants can be found at
www.waterw.com/~weidner/LH-day-table.htm
PIRATE ---> AP2/WA2WYR is still being pirated on CW (latest reports come from
Matt, S53AU, who heard this one on 25 March around 20.30 UTC on 20 metres).
John, W2YR (ex WA2WYR) operated as AP2/WA2WYR from the American Consulate in
Karachi, Pakistan from 1991 to October 1992. All other operations for
AP/WA2WYR are pirates. The log books for John's many operations can be found
at http://members.aol.com/w2yr/w2yr.htm (also please note that KK6TX is no
longer the QSL manager for John - cards should be sent to W2YR). [TNX S53AU

QSL 5A1A ---> Please note that Steve, OM3JW is the QSL manager (direct and
bureau) ONLY for the operation by the Ukrainan team on 11-25 July 1995. He
got the logs and cards from UT3UY at the end of 1997 (before that date he
just acted as a maildrop). [TNX OM3JW]
QSL 5P1ER ---> Joergen, OZ8AE is receiving many QSL cards for 5P1ER, but he
is not the QSL manager for this station. Cards should go via EDR bureau or

above) so he will start working on them when he returns from his vacation.
Please do not send second requests any sooner than June.
TX0DX ---> The DXpedition went QRT some 24 hours earlier than expected due to
bad weather conditions. As of 22.30 UTC on 27 March, TX0DX had topped the
60,000 mark in total QSOs (more than 2600 QSOs on 6 metres), maintaining an
average rate of more than 500 QSOs per hour for the first five days of the
operation. There was no 160 metre operation as the goal was from the
beginning to get the new one into the logs of as many DXers as possible. The
HF log search will not be available until a few days after the operation (see
the web site http://www.n4gn.com/tx0dx/ for more details).
VK9RS VIDEO ---> The VK9RS DXpedition (OC-230) 2-hour professionally produced
