I worked the 7O operation just before Iraq invaded Kuwait. The QSL manager
was a member of the Kuwaiti
royal family which had to flee Kuwait. I had sent a QSL card but figured no
chance of getting a confirmation. Four years later I got the card.

OK, so I had 5 QSOs with 7O1YGF which I never requested confirmation
for. After the 7O1A debacle and my cards being rejected by the DXCC
Desk, I decided to take a "lets see what happens attitude". I pretty
much had given up hope that the 7O1YGF operation would ever be approved
after a year
My understanding is that Franz and Zorro had authorisation from the Aden
office, not from Sana'a. Given the dubious authorisatoins that some people got

success on getting 7O1YGF approved by DXCC.
