>>> ANDAMAN ISLANDS CQ Amateur Radio magazine will celebrate its
60th anniversary in 2005 and celebrations will include a "CQ Gang" activity
to be held from 1 January to 1 March - all those who have ever had an
association with CQ magazine may sign "/60" (six zero) after their callsign.
Complete rules for the "CQ/60" Operating Activity and the relevant "CQ Gang
Award" are at http://www.cq-amateur-radio.com/CQ60 Award Dec04.pdf
PIRATE ---> Your Editor (I1JQJ) has been repeatedly pirated on the packet
cluster - is there any need to say that in my limited spare time I like
chasing DX and compiling 425 DX News better than posting stupid and nasty
announces? Many thanks to all those who have expressed their sympathy to me.
QSL VK4UC ---> The newly printed QSL cards have been received and Kim Larson,
daughter of N3SL, has processed just over 400 cards (about 50 of those were
direct, the rest went to the ARRL outbound bureau). At the moment the 2002
WPX CW, Oceania Contest and CQWW CW logs are missing. [TNX N3SL]
QSL VK9LA & VK9LW ---> Bill, VK4FW reports that all direct cards received up
to 30 December have been answered. A reminder to all: "overseas postage here
has increased to $1.80", Bill says, "a single USD no longer covers return
postage".
THE SCOTTISH HAM PORTAL TROPHY ---> The Scottish HAM Portal
(http://www.scotham.net) introduces a new trophy for Scottish amateur radio
stations. The objective of this trophy is to highlight the most active
Scottish amateur radio station in the outgoing year. Please send your vote to
nominate the most active Scottish amateur radio station in 2004 of your
choice via mm0dfv@scotham.net (deadline is 15 January 2005). Everyone is
eligible to vote. [TNX MM0DFV]
