Z2 QSL BUREAU. Don, G3BJ, announced the following: "At the Zimbabwe
Amateur Radio Society (ZARS) council meeting held on May 3, 2004, ZARS
took the decision to close the Zimbabwe QSL Bureau. This is simply due
to the excessive cost of services that are now prevalent in Zimbabwe.
The main cost is for the posting of cards to the various bureaus around
the world. This is coupled with a declining number of members such that
reasonable subscriptions can no longer support the costs of running the
bureau. ZARS has recommended to members that QSL Managers be sought if
they do not already have a manager. A number have taken up the suggestion
and arrangements have been made. Member societies should note this
information and advise their QSL managers accordingly."
Ken Holdom, ZL4HU (Group Organizer/Team Leader/QSL Manager), member
of the Kermadec DX Association, reports the the issue of commemorative
envelopes for the ZL9CI DXpedition in January 1999 was one of the
significant milestones for this record setting DXpedition. The Kermadec
DX Association has a small limited supply of these envelopes left, and
they are anxious to find a good home for these amongst the very finest
of collectors, DXers, and others worldwide. They are now selling these
at the very modest sum of 10 USD per envelope postage paid. If you are
interested please reply directly to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

ZA, ALBANIA (Last week's news from Albania by Martti, OH2BH). "Many noticed
ZA/OH2BH and ZA/OH2PM signals bouncing in from Albania last week. Indeed,
some 6000 QSOs were made--not only to please the Deserving but also to
remind us about our shared responsibility to help those in need.
This time, five stations were fully equipped: ZA1BH, ZA1BS, ZA1DC, ZA1DJ
and ZA1S. These callsigns were launched into the battle and these fine
people made their first radio contact to the world. Their signals reached
all parts of the world with ease and also many U.S stations were on hand
to experience their first day of operating.
Radio equipment was donated by W3UR, K9MM, G3TXF, EA2NO and OH2PM, but
many more recently licensed ZA hams are still in need of any gear to bring
more ZA signals to the bands and make the Albanians welcome to this great
passion of ours.
You are welcome to join this undertaking by making your old gear active
from Albania. Your contacts are K7JA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, N7NG
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and K9LA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. Or just meet personally ZA1B,
OH2BH, OH2PM, G3LQP and the above U.S persons in Dayton to present your
