DXCC NEWS ---> The recent VP8THU
(South Sandwich Islands, 18-22 January) and VP8GEO (South
Georgia, 26 January-6 February) operations are now being
accepted for DXCC credit. [TNX Bill Moore, NC1L, DXCC
Manager]
JD1BLL ---> Mack, JJ2QXI reports that
the station signing JD1BLL or JD1BLL/JD1 is most likely
to be a pirate. "According to the information
available at http://www.k-denkan.go.jp/faq/atfaq/atfuyo.html,
this callsign has not been assigned yet", he says.
"Japanese callsign is by alphabetical order, and the
last one is JD1BKZ as of February 21, 2002."
NORTH KOREA WRAP-UP ---> The
following release comes from Hrane, YT1AD through Nenad,
VE3EXY: "We arrived to Pyongyang on March 5th, where
we were welcomed by representatives of Ministry of
Telecommunications and Foreign Affairs. We were stationed
in Yangakdo Hotel, on the bank of the river with the same
name. The hotel has 47 floors, and we were on the 40-th
floor, with almost ideal conditions for work. All our
equipment was put together, and we were about to start
our operation with previously assigned callsign P5A.
Unexpectedly the uniformed military official appeared,
and imposed ban on our operation, until the permission of
military authorities is obtained. It was supposed to be
available on March 8th, but nobody showed up, possibly
because of holiday. We did not want to risk starting
unauthorized operation. Meanwhile we had fun listening
all pirates pretending to be us, when we did not make a
single contact. Finally, the military official showed up
on Sunday and simply said: 'No transmission until further
notice.' Than we did not have any choice but to leave.
After landing in Beijing, our only comment was: Never
Again !!!"
QSL GB0SGI ---> Anyone who is still
awaiting a QSL card for the Warrington Amateur Radio
Club's (http://www.warc.org.uk)
GB0SGI operations from EU-120 (3 & 5 August 1999 and
3-6 July 2000) can e-mail Ron Davies, G0WJX (ron-G0WJX@warc.org.uk)
and he will check the log and send a duplicate. [TNX
G0WJX]
QSL IU3A ---> Please note that Mauro,
IV3HAX cannot confirm QSOs made with IU3A before 2001.
QSL OH2BV/BY1DX ---> Tor Nylund,
OH2BV is receiving dozens of bureau cards for OH2BV/BY1DX
(2000-2001), but he has nothing to share with this
activity. More than likely those QSOs were made with
Jari, OH2BVE [425DXN 465], who had announced he would
confirm all the QSOs automatically through the bureau
(direct cards had to be sent to OH6LI, who would act as a
maildrop).
QSL UA0IA ---> Serge, UA0IA was
active as UA0IA/0 from AS-018 in 1999 and from AS-025 in
2000-2001. His former QSL manager (US7IIA) is currently
living in Germany, Serge is not in contact with him any
longer and, according to Alex, UY9IF, " all the QSLs
left unanswered are lost completely". The new QSL
manager is UT7IY (cards have bee already printed).
QSL MANAGER OFFERED ---> Agostino
Palumbo, I2FIQ has recently retired and offers his
services as QSL manager for a DX station. Please contact
him at ik2fiq@hotmail.com.
"THE LOST ISLANDS" DXPEDITION

accepted the order for printing the QSL cards for the 16

checked at http://www.quadrat.ru/qsl/english/rightnow.htm).

RAST/HSDXA Thai/Laos Friendship DXpedition was active as
