Bill, Well frm what you all have found out - it looks like it is time to make a "change" to the ARRL-ID for P5 .... from 433 to 344 ...
That change will be easy enough - since there is no "contending" country with a 344 currently -- so, we can just simply change the 433 over to read 344 ... Tnx Bill for the Heads-UP. 73 Joe wa6axe FireBrick wrote: > I just received an email from the DXCC desk stating that the correct > number for N.
