MIA BULLETIN ---> Edited by Corrado Ruscica, IT9DAA (it9daa@mdxc.org)
in co-operation with 425 DX News, this weekly bulletin provides information on
island activities that count for the Mediterranean Islands Award (MIA). It is
available on the MDXC's web site at http://www.mdxc.org/
QSL 9K2USA ---> Raymond, W8CNL is not the QSL manager for 9K2USA. Actually, in March 2003 Hamad, 9K2HN reported [425DXN 618] he had taken over the duties
of the former QSL manager (9K2RA). Apolgies for any inconvenience we may have
caused our readers.
QSL AY1ZA ---> The QSL cards, donated by 425 DX News and the Mediterraneo DX
Club, have been printed by IT9EJW, who mailed them to Henry, LU4DXU o 14
July.
QSL CO2TK ---> Pepin reports that effective 15 July, his new new QSL manager
is F5CWU (Flo Moudar, 25 Rue du Castel Salis, 37100 Tours, France).
QSL CT9P & CT9X ---> QSLs for these two calls [425DXN 679] will not be
printed until after the trip is complete. The manager for both calls is Kim
Larson, daughter of N3SL, via N3SL's CBA. Bureau cards will be honoured, but
please note that they are shipped out only quarterly. The logs will be
uploaded on LoTW by N3SL as soon as received. [TNX N3SL]
QSL UE0LLH ---> The 2-9 July operation from Askol'd Island (AS-066, LH-2159)
logged about 3000 QSOs. QSL direct to UA0MF (Mike Filippov, P.O. Box 20, Vladivostok, 690021, Russia). [TNX UA0MF]
QSL VIA F6BUM ---> Jack, F6BUM says that he will answer all cards, including
for past operations, received direct or via the bureau.
QSL VIA K3AIR ---> Effective 1 August, Mike/K3AIR will be assuming QSL
manager duties for Pri, YB0ECT and Dudy, YB0DPO. K5ZE has managed these
stations for the last five years, but has had to step down due to a job
relocation. K3AIR will respond to both bureau and direct cards.
[TNX K1XN and The Golist]
UA3DX/0 & RW3DTB/0 ---> The IOTA Manager reports that, contrary to erroneous
spots on the Cluster, the provisional number AS-171 was not issued following
the activity by UA3DX/0 and RW3DTB/0 on 3 July from Novaya Inya. There remains much doubt that this island will qualify for IOTA. [TNX G3KMA]
