SP3WVL are all right: Tomasz Lipinski, ul. Wodna 7A/6PL, 69-100 Slubice
Poland or Tomasz Lipinski, P.O. Box 78PL, 69-100 Slubice Poland. Marek was
also active between December 1996 and December 1997; please note that cards
for contacts made with HF0POL during this time frame should be sent to
SP3FYM.
KOREA DX CONVENTION ---> Organized by Korea DX Club, it will be held in
Chonan City on 4-5 November. For full details please contact DS2BHE
(centaurs@hitel.net) or HL1IWD (hl1iwd@yahoo.com). [TNX HL1IWD]

6-13 September, and operated together during the WAE SSB Contest. Cards for
contacts made during this time frame only should go to DK9IP via the DARC
bureau. Online log search (some 8,000 QSOs) and further information are now
available at http://www.dk9ip.de [TNX DK9IP]
QSL 4W/N5KO, 4W/W3UR & TX0DX ---> All U.S. and Canada direct QSL requests for
TX0DX, 4W/N5KO and 4W/W3UR received at OH2BN prior to 1 August have been
released for the U.S postal network. For the rest of the world, some 95% of
the cards received as of 1 August have been mailed. The remaining cards
include HL and all calls beginning with the letters R, S, T and U. These
QSLs are in the works and should be released before 1 October. Because of the
pirate problems with Japan, some 200 JA envelopes are still on hold but those
will also be released before 1 October. The QSL team will begin on 1 October
to process envelopes received after 1 August. They will also address any
outstanding QSL issues at that time, including cards lost or damaged in the
mail. [TNX N4GN]
QSL VE2ICM ---> "Anyone wanting a QSL card from Conrad, VE2ICM should please
send it direct, because his health is failing fast", John, WD8MGQ reports.
"The buro cards he has in hand are only 20% done, and is much more time
consuming than what Conrad can devote to. No more cards will be answered from
the buro, and direct will only be answered for another 2 months".

club station in Bagdad) between 4 and 12 September (QRT at 18 UTC). QSL via
G0MMI (for these dates only). [TNX G0MMI]
QSL VIA W3HC ---> If you are waiting for a QSL from any of the several
stations managed by W3HC, please be patient and do not submit second cards,
as sad family occurences currently prevent Mac from dedicating his time and
thoughts to QSLling. All mail received is being stored in boxes until he can
get to them.
