Thanks to all who replied. Any info about CT9M QSL routes applies to
previous users of the call, which I was already aware of.
I just worked Lali as CT3/VE3NE on 40m. He said to send the CT9M QSLs
to him.
I would add that this is only for this present (Jan-Feb 2005) CT9M
activity. Previous ope

The latest Top of the HR listing on the ARRL website shows two stations
at 333 on RTTY, two below the overall top of 335. A curious note says
that no one is at the HR Top on RTTY.

I do believe it should be the old way. It was certainly deserved to see

I too floated the idea of a suspended list many years ago and it met
the same fate. Now that I revisit it: Imagine that a "suspended"
country became active and worked, say, only three stations. It could

Red - Call what you will "stupid" but it's MY opinion just as yours is
yours. When I see an unachievable number with an asterisk next to it,
I'm not inclined to think of anything much more than "OT." When I see

It's a matter of which way it's cut. One is a deference to longevity

The DXCC listings in the yearly book and Honor Roll should be in order
of "current" entities with a slash to show totals with those deleted.
So if W1AW has worked them all plus 20 deleted, the call would appear
