This sounds similar to sea land, which was never a dxcc entity so I bet these won't be.

I hope not. Working new countries is nothing more than annoyance these days with cluster spots, skimmers, etc. Barry W2UP On 8/16/2011 6:24 PM, Jim Reisert AD1C wrote: Silicon Valley billionaire funding creation of artificial libertarian islands: http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/lookout/silicon-valley-billionaire-funding-creation-artificial-libertarian-islands-140840896.html I can't see how these could count for DXCC, but you never know... -- Barry Kutner, W2UP Lakewood, CO --- To unsubscribe or subscribe to this list.

Not to worry. If they're libertarian, there won't be any licensing authority. Sent from my iPad On Aug 16, 2011, at 9:07 PM, Barry w...@comcast.net wrote: I hope not.

RE: [DX-CHAT] Billionaire funding creation of artificial libertarian islands
I wouldn't worry about it until and unless one of these actually gets built in truly international waters gets a population living on it. Further considering though, purely as an intellectual exercise, the article states that these will be floating islands. Logically, that would make them more akin to a huge ship maritime mobile... and if that is the case, it wouldn't count under existing DXCC rules. 3 will get you 2 that they never get built though, for one reason or another. 73 -Original Message- From: kf...@njdxa.org [mailto:kf...@njdxa.org] On Behalf Of Jim Reisert AD1C Sent: Tuesday, August 16, 2011 8:24 PM To: dx-chat List Subject: [DX-CHAT] Billionaire funding creation of artificial libertarian islands Silicon Valley billionaire funding creation of artificial libertarian islands: http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/lookout/silicon-valley-billionaire-funding-creat ion-artificial-libertarian-islands-140840896.html I can't see how these could count for DXCC, but you never know... -- Jim Reisert AD1C, jjreis...@alum.mit.edu, http://www.ad1c.us --- To unsubscribe or subscribe to this list.
