You guys are missing the WHOLE story. It came from my buddy Sean KX9X. He told it to me first, then posted it to a couple other DX groups. I do not know if it counts as DX NEWS, so I am going to forward it to DX-CHAT. If the listmeisters think it's appropriate for DX-News, I'll post it

I am in no big hurry. I doubt that Montenegro is going to cease to exist or ban amateur radio in the near future. There will probably be plenty of operators from there and it will be commonplace soon enough. The same happened with S5, T9, Z3 etc. 73, Zack W9SZ On Wed, 28 Jun 2006 [EMAIL

On further investigation, the T8 prefix for Palau became official on January 1, 1994.However, it was also being used by the Principality of Seborga in May of 1995. Talk about confusing! I don't know who had it in 1981. 73, Zack W9SZ On Sat, Nov 28, 2009 at 6:10 PM, Zack Widup w9sz.z...@gmail.com
