I live in the Holy part of Florida, Middleburg. I have a circular driveway
and one morning each week I conduct a Toot-n-Tell service. You drive
through, roll down your window, tell me your sins, drop few coins in the
bucket as you depart.
Seems to me this qualifies as a new entity? (Just the land inside the
circle) Maybe special call like UN1WX/P. Calls would be limited to 6, 60
(Channel one only), and 160 meters PSK-31 (no brags please) and SSTV.
I would even allow an occasional guest operator. (Special considerations
given to graduates of Jerry Farwells' School in Lynchburg, Va. and family
members of Tammy Faye.)
I would be seeking the ARRL's blessing on this so any honest advice on
procedures to make this come true is welcome. I have read the DXCC rules but
still a little unclear on the proper procedures.
Oh, I did forget one thing. Last week during my service, I went into my
radio room to get one of my congregation members change for a quarter (25c)
so he could make a donation. I bumped my desk and my radio fell to the
floor. It was broken. My friend has unable to repair the radio. So I will
need a new one donated.
Hope to hear your TOOT soon!
A possible NEW one!

(Reply moved to DX CHAT)
I think we have to remember that Monk Apollo lives a very different life
than we do, and has very different priorities. And by extension, so does
the Council that governs Mount Athos.
I surely hope that we have not seen the last of Amateur Radio from SV/A
for
the near future... but I have to wonder if that is indeed the case.
Considering everything that's gone on with operating from there over the
past few years, one wonders if the Powers That Be have decided that enough
is enough and that Amateur Radio is too distracting from their other
concerns.
And having said that... does anyone know if a donated radio is offered,
will
Monk Apollo accept it?

Something in Mount Athos is Holy - or is going to be in the
eternity - but can a ''council'' really be Holy ???

Only the Holy Council gives the licenses and Monk Apollo is not either
a
member in Holy Council
It seems to me that Mt. Athos belongs not to Greece but to the Holy
Council. I guess we'll have to live with it.
We could still send him a radio, though, couldn't we?
