RE: [DX-NEWS] QSL Question
Randy, You might want to hold off QSLing JE9IKG and ask him if he is the QSL manager for current (July 2003) QSOs. Sam (VK2BVS), also the same guy who trained (?) the H44 stations, told me no QSLs as this is a training station. When I got my license they told me that a QSL was the final courtesy of a QSO!

The DXCC2000 rule under which 4W was added reads: b. The entity has been assigned a call sign prefix bloc by the ITU. A provisional prefix bloc assignment may be made by the Secretary General of ITU. Should such provisional assignments not be ratified later by the full ITU, the Entity will be removed from the DXCC List The assignment was not ratified and UNTAET returned it to ITU which has reissued the block 4WA-4WZ to Timor Leste. It is the position of JA1BK and myself that the addition of 4W to the DXCC entities list was premature and that a mistake was made. This mistake has been acknowledged by one of the gentlemen who made it. ARRL is comprised of people and has, in the past, acknowledged mistakes when countries were deleted under the former DXCC rules. Islands which proved not to have existed are an example and the island of Okinotorishima was deleted because it simply was mistakenly added to the list. We expect that after due and hopefully prompt consideration ARRL will understand the fact that a mistake has been made and that Timor Leste will be added to the entities list.

Icom France is even financially supporting freeband DXpeditions which means they must be selling a lot of ham gear to freebanders. Casual Websurfing will reveal that the freebanders are perhaps even more active than hams in mounting DXpeditions. And going to places (like VU7, YVO, SV/a) that hams can't easily go.

RE: [DX] [DX-NEWS] XW0X
Pete, I am not picking on you directly. I am however using your situation so that others may learn. In a situation like this I would highly recommend that you send an e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] This is the e-mail address to the DXCC Desk. Usually Bill Moore, NC1L, will be the person who responds. They are the horse's mouth so to speak and can tell you exactly why. It could be a mistake with the computer, this happens sometimes. Or it could be that they have not received the proper paper work. It is also possible that the situation is pending, meaning they have the paper work but are trying to make a decision. The DXCC Desk should never send the cards back with no explanation. That would be a huge mistake. If the reason was Invalid Date Range then my guess is that the XW0X license has several valid time frames and your card does not fall in any of those time frames. I know that Hiroo's license has been issued several times and usually only for 30 days at a time. By reading your note below it sounds to me that Hiroo needs to submit paper work to the DXCC Desk for the time frame of your QSO. But again I stress the best and most accurate way is to ask the DXCC Desk. Again I don't mean to pick on you but to tell everyone who has a question to submit them to [EMAIL PROTECTED] That is the reason for the e-mail address.

BTW, how is it decided who is the appropriate authority? Shouldn't we be consistent? If YT1AD was denied permission by the appropriate authority, then how could that same authority grant permission to someone else?

[DX-NEWS] Ducie Island update
Bill, K6GNX, was unable to get this information out yesterday as he had an important business meeting. Here is a synopsis of what is going on with the VP6 Ducie Island DXpedition. Friday 1608Z -- As of 1600Z today we still have not heard from the FO0MIZ/MM, the team going to Pitcairn Island. Dave, VP6DB, says there is a 12-15 knot head wind so that would slow the team down. Dave and Tom, VP6TC, are ready and waiting for the arrival of the team. Once the team arrives they will get on 21260 and pass word of their safe arrival. The following press releases were received this morning, first from the IARU and second from the ARRL. DXCC country # 335 is Ducie Island! Stay tuned for more news as it becomes available. Friday 2134Z -- OK Bob, W3BTX, reports talking to the boys on the boat heading to Pitcairn Island. It seems they are doing OK however they are traveling a lot slower than they expected. as of about 2100Z they were expecting another 24 hours to get to Pitcairn Island. There they will pick up Tom, VP6TC, and Dave, VP6DB, along with their gear and fuel. It should take about two hours to load up their stuff and then on to Ducie Island. Under normal circumstances it should take just under 234 (24) hours to make it from Pitcairn to Ducie. Let's hope they are able to pick up some speed. I'll keep you posted if any other significant news comes up. For those of you who need a somewhat accurate lat/long on Ducie Island here it is. 24.39:57S 124.48:21W Saturday 0124Z No the Ducie Island team is not swimming to Pitcairn Island! HI. Sorry about that gang! It was a typo. It should have said 24 hours. I just got finished talking to Kan, VP6BK/MM, on the way to Pitcairn Island. They are in a storm, which can been seen at http://kauai.nrlmry.navy.mil/sat-bin/display10?PHOT=yesAREA=pacific/southern_hemispherePROD=vaporNAV=tropicsCGI=tropics.cgiARCHIVE=LatestMOSAIC_SCALE=15%CURRENT=LATEST.jpg They were located at 24.30 South 131.09 West at Z and going about 7 knots. At that speed they should be arriving at Pitcairn around 1000Z. Thankfully they are over half way through the storm, which I think is having its effects on the team. Everyone is doing OK, but I think some are suffering some seasickness. Kan will be on 21260 at 0300Z and Jin, VP6XX/MM, has been found on 21363 on the hour. Saturday 0342Z Kan, JA1BK/VP6BK, reports that the wx got a little better and they are now (0315Z) at 24.30 South 130.80 West. They are moving at about 9-10 knots. At that rate they should arrive at Pitcairn around 1000Z. This is also approximately the same time that a container ship will be arriving at Pitcairn. This could add a little delay in the harbor. The DXpedition will not be extended. They will probably end on November 22 or 23 as they must be back on Gambiers on November 27. Saturday 1538Z The Ducie Island team have made it safely to Pitcairn Island. They arrived and anchored around 1230Z. There is still a storm in the Pitcairn area. The storm and the container ship in the harbor are holding up boarding of Tom, VP6TC, and Dave,. VP6DB, the fuel and equipment. They hope they can start loading up around 1600Z. Thanks to VP6BB, VP6BK, WC7N and many others. 73 Bernie, W3UR -- Bernie McClenny, W3UR Editor of - The Daily DX - The Weekly DX - How's DX 3025 Hobbs Road Glenwood, MD 21738 http://www.dailydx.com --- Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems, etc DX-NEWS http://njdxa.org/dx-news DX-CHAT: http://njdxa.org/dx-chat To post a message, DX NEWS items only, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives http://www.mail-archive.com/dx-news%40pro-usa.net/
[DXR] A61AJ - now has a new QSL route.
Due to a lack of time with my family and business I must step down as QSL manager for Ali, A61AJ. Joe Veras, N4QB, will now be handling the QSLing chores. He will have all logs for all QSOs made by A61AJ. Effective today all QSL requests need to go to N4QB. If you have already sent your request to W3UR they will be answered by me. Direct QSLs will go out this month. Bureau cards will go out by the end of the year. Any requests sent to W3UR after today will be forwarded to N4QB. The A61AJ Contest team will be very QRV over the next 3 months. Please help spread the word to your friends, clubs, news letters and magazines of this change. N4QB - Joe Veras, P.O.

Re: [DXR] 3Y0C
WA4FFW, the QSL manager for 3Y0C, had a statement in the DX bulletins that basically said he was doing the DX (outside of the US) first then the US.

Re: [DXR] DXCC endorsement time frame
Harry, The best place to always ask a DXCC question is [EMAIL PROTECTED] Last I heard the time was 8-9 weeks. Again just send an e-mail to the above and you will get a response and most accurate too. Bernie Harris Ruben wrote: Anyone have an idea of how long DXCC takes to send out the endorsement after the paperwork is processed (in Newington - not by the card checker)?
