>>> DXPEDITIONING - BEHIND THE SCENES <<<
Edited by Neville Cheadle (G3NUG) and Steve Telenius-Lowe (G4JVG), this
182+XXXIV-page book has been written by members of the 1998 9M0C Spratly team
(65,500 QSOs in 12 days). It is not a story of the DXpedition but draws
heavily on the experiences at 9M0C and on many other DXpeditions in order to
offer an extensive coverage of virtually all aspects of a major expedition,
from early planning through QSLing. Full information is available at
http://www.nevada.co.uk/book-DX.html (where the book can be ordered). All the
surpluses from sales of this book will flow to a new organisation (the Five
Star DXers Association) and will be used as part of the funding for a major
DXpedition probably to the Central Pacific in March 2001.
CWJF CONTEST ---> The Manchester Mineira CW Contest will take place on 20-21
May; further information available at http://www.powerline.com.br/cwjf [TNX

this year's event (from 00.01 UTC on 19 August until 23.59 UTC on the 20th)
is continually updated at www.waterw.com/~weidner/LH-day-table.htm [TNX
GM4SUC, gm4suc@compuserve.com]
QSL A35MQ ---> Please note that cards for the recent A35MQ operation should
be sent to DL8NBE. Do not send them to either IV3DHD or IV3UHL (who was
active with that call back in 1993).
QSL EA5DWS/P ---> He was active from Tabarca Island (EU-093, DIE E-006) on
20-23 April. Cards should go via EA5DWS either direct (Salva Moreno, P.O. Box
134, 03820 Cocentaina, Alicante, Spain) or through the bureau. [TNX EA5DWS]
QSL HS0ZBS ---> Do not send your cards to Kurt's (HB9AMZ) old address in
Switzerland or through the Swiss bureau, as he lives in Thailand. Send your
cards direct to Kurt Brauer, P.O. Box 75, Phanom-Sarakham, Chachoengsao
24120, Thailand or through the HS bureau.
QSL EU-066 ---> Cards for RZ1OA/p and UA1OLM/p (EU-066) should be sent to
RZ1OA, whose CBA is wrong. The correct address is Vlad Sadakov, P.O. Box 48,
Arkhangelsk 163040, Russia. [TNX RZ1OA]
