>>> DIAMOND ANTARCTIC NEWS - R1ANZ [WABA UA-07] Wally, RU1ZC, just arrived on Mirny Base on board of the supply vessel "Magdalena". He will be on air very soon hopefully on the Antarctic Net - 21275. - R1ANF [WABA UA-04] Oleg lost the main mast with two antennas during a big storm. Now they are on air with a vertical antenna R6000. - R1ANC & RW1AI/ANT [WABA UA-10] They have very poor conditions to Europe. However Alan has made over 9000 QSOs as R1ANC so far. The first 2000 has arrived and could be loaded into QSL DataBase very fast. Note that QSL aren't printed yet. MANAGERS INFORME: - DL5EBE says: "All direct QSL cards for R1AND have been answered. Cards for outside of Europe were mailed from Germany. All european cards were sent in a package to Czech Republic for mailing (lower postage relative to Germany). I hope that EU cards will be delivered within the next 14 days. Unfortunately, I realized too late that the coordinates printed on the R1AND QSL card are not correct (in the layout the coordinates were correct). The correct coordinates of Novolazarevskaya Station are 70°46'S 11°50'E. Please change this info on the QSL card when you get the card". - R1ANF/P [WABA PY-03] with very pleasure Diamond Dx Club will print the QSL cards of the last activity from Refugio Astronomo Cruls made possible by Oleg. Thanks very much for this new one. ____________________________________________________________________ >>> DIAMOND IOTA NEWS MAY 2002 - 7W4HI [IOTA AF-New One] All is ready for the new one from Algeria.
