First, let me be very clear on one thing... Monk Apollo has NOT, to my

As far as I remember the last addition as ''separate administration'' was a
special case in the eighties. That was 4J1FS, Malyj Vysotskij Island, now
listed as R1M. OH2NB, a real old-timer, had been promised many years
before by ARRL, that when an operation could take place it would be

Mount Athos was added to the DXCC-list when there was a rule regarding
''separate administration'' - that rule is long gone, as far as I remember it
was removed back in the late seventies - however regarding the time I may
be wrong. But no Indian Tribes with ''separate administration'' can be add

I understand the island of Niihau in Hawaii is almost like that except for the Holy Ground.

Finally, we have seen a sensible answer to this. I'm surprised by many of the

Two thoughts:
1. Sometimes it is difficult to determine who is genuinely impoverished and
who is just fishing for a new free radio. But, a monk has likely taken a

I would give him an "A" in creative writing. The U.S. does not have sole
claim over the title in unique, creative writing themes but does hold its
own.
As for the original posting, I could say "Ah, Tooter, always getting into

Speaking of Mt Athos, does anybody know of a way that I might be able to
get confirmation, in the form of a qsl card, from there, for a contact on
24MHz in March 2002?
I've sent direct, with money, 3 times since the qso with no luck to date.

I don't like to post on the reflector but i think that we are not right.
Monk Apollo has not a radio for 2 months now.
Has he asked anything?
I (sv1dpi) just told something that i learned and i think is interesting for
all of us.
If we want to give him a radio we can do it.
If we don't he will cont
I think that there are many people out there who
have a hard luck story and would love a new radio. Monk Apollo is just

BTW W4WX just got my vote for a new
