>From 8/24 edition of The Daily DX, KA2HTV, Dave, made it back to Beijing, China after spending two weeks in North Korea. Unfortunately Dave was unable to operate. His equipment was confiscated by government officials, meanwhile Dave was waiting for the equipments to be released. After the other foreign delegates left, this was the time Dave was supposed to put in more time, he was summoned to meet with NPRK authorities. Apparently the official, a Spanish man, who told Dave that he would be "given permission" was not authorized to do so. Dave was then told by the ministry of communications they would take his license and "look into getting" him permission. Obviously this was a shock to Dave who is needless to say very disappointed. A lot of work, time and expense have been put into this project. However Dave, says "I saw signs of hope for the future." Much of the equipment was kept by the officials who accepted the donation and gave a thank you letter. Dave was able to give a talk to the P5 officials about Amateur Radio. Dave was expected back in New York late Tuesday, August 23rd.
