DXCC NEWS...
DXCC Accepting P5/4L4FN Contacts! Wayne
Mills, N7NG, Membership Services Department Manager,
reports in a ARRL News Release: "Since early
November 2001, Mr. Edisher (Ed) Giorgadze, 4L4FN, a
Georgian citizen employed by the United Nations World
Food Program, has been active as P5/4L4FN in Pyongyang,
DPRK. DXCC Rule 7 states 'Any Amateur Radio operation
should take place only with the complete approval and
understanding of appropriate administration officials.'
The rule continues, 'In any case, credit will be given
for contacts where adequate evidence of authorization by
appropriate authorities exists.' The ARRL has now
received adequate evidence that the operation by Mr.
Giorgadze is being conducted with the knowledge and
approval of telecommunications officials in Pyongyang. At
the present time, this approval is limited to SSB
operation. The ARRL Awards Committee has met and
concurred that the operation should be accredited. As a
result, we are pleased to announce that effective
immediately, the DXCC Branch will accept SSB contacts
with P5/4L4FN for DXCC credit. Contacts with P5/4L4FN
dating back to early November, 2001 will count for this
Entity." OPDX InterNet Subscribers will receive
"ARRL DX Bulletin 14 (ARLD014)" which contains
more details of the P5/4L4FN operation and its acceptance
as an additional bulletin.

QSL INFO AND NEWS...
LOST LOGS! Bob, N2OO, reports: "I
am sorry to report that most logs from the JULY 2001
operation at 9M6AAC were lost. I held about 80 cards
while I waited for the 'op' to try to locate the logs on
his laptop. However, he has finally reported that he has
had no luck salvaging the logs. He is quite heart broken.
The only QSO's that we were able to salvage were 200
which were logged on the regular 9M6AAC shack computer
from 0822 UTC on July 27th thru 0521 UTC on July 28th. It
is quite possible that this may only be a partial log
during this timeframe. All QSLs have been returned with a
note explaining the problem. Anyone who needs a QSL for
this specific "July 2001" operation using the
callsign 9M6AAC can contact me via E-mail at n2oo@arrl.net and I will
check the log before you send a card. The July 2001 IOTA
Contest operation using callsign 9M6A is OK. ALL other
9M6AAC and 9M6A logs are 100% OK. In the 5 years since
9M6AAC started operations, over 200,000 QSO's have been
made and this is the first time we have had a lost log.
Anyone can view the 9M6AAC web site at http://www.qsl.net/9m6aac
and click on 'schedules' to see about future activity
from the 9M6AAC/9M6A shack. I have a QSL manager web page
found at http://www.qsl.net/n2oo/history/qsl-n2oo.htm
where I post news about 'QSL via N2OO'. Again, we are
quite sorry about this.... we feel terrible about it. 73!
Bob Schenck, N2OO/9M6OO/V85OO"
Alex, RU6FA, was informed by Alex,
EZ8BD, that his QSL information in the "QRZ CD
2001" is not right. The correct route is: P.O. Box
15, Ashgabat, 744017, Turkmenistan.
H40XX and H44XX online logs are now
available with the exception of CQ WPX SSB activity. The
link to the online log can be found at Nick's, VK1AA,
page: http://www.qsl.net/vk1aa/temotu.
Hillar/N6HR and Elsie/N7YX were active
in the CQ WPX SSB Contest last week as KH6RS. QSL via
N6HR.
Pablo, LU5XPZ, in Ushuaia, on the Island
of Tierra del Fuego in Argentina, informs OPDX that he
has designated Patrick Stoddard, WD9EWK, as his QSL
Manager. Cards can be sent direct or through the QSL
Bureaus for him. Pablo's entries in QRZ.com and
Buckmaster now show WD9EWK as his QSL Manager, and the
information for WD9EWK is correct at those Web sites as
well as in the Radio Amateur Callbook since 1997.
NOT A QSL MANAGER. Christian, DL6KAC,
reports that he continues to receive QSLs for stations
from Eastern Europe (EK, EW, 4J etc.) claiming that he is
the QSL Manager for these stations. He is NOT a QSL
Manager for ANY stations other than his own /p activites
(EA6/, W4/, OZ/, SM/, PA/ etc.) and the WAG 2001 contest
QSOs for DN2EI (but *only* these QSOs - not the regular
QSOs).
QSLs for the 5B4/RV3MA operation go via
RW3RN.
On-line logs for RH9XN are now available
on the following Web site at: http://dx.qsl.net/cgi-bin/logform.cgi?rh9xn.

VP6DI LOGS. Shiro, JH4PHW, reports some
32,712 QSOs have been loaded to the following Web site: http://www.big.or.jp/~ham/VP6DI/.
Please remember that this is only part of the 50,000 QSOs
they made. Shiro also states that the VP6AZ, VP6DB, VP6MW
and VP6TC online logs will be available soon on the same
page. The operators that were active from Henderson
Island made about 4200 QSOs. The QSL information is as
follows: VP6TK via N9TK; VP6VT via N9TK; VP6AJ via N9TK
and VP6MW via Call Book Address
Dr. Bill, K6GNX, reports that the
operators from the XR0X DXpedition to San Felix Island
are now home and fine. The online logs have been
corrected and are now available at: http://cordell.vwh.net/SFX/.
QSLs go to John, N7CQQ, either zip code is OK. John asks
to please send a SASE, and that any green stamps and or
donations will be very much appreciated to help cover the
cost of the helicopter, returning the container, and
returning the equipment loaned. Pictures have been posted
on the Web site.
SPECIAL EVENT STATION. Radio Austria
International (the external broadcasting service) operates, as in
previous years, special event station OE1M (a special prefix for
this day only), on International Marconi Day, April 27th. This
operation aims at inviting radio amateurs and broadcast listeners
to learn more about each other. The QSL, accordingly, will be
issued "cross.-mode" for OE1M-QSOs/RRs and/or reception
reports for "Intermedia", Radio Austria International's
weekly communications magazine (broadcast via AM, SW, cable,
satellite, and internet). For details check: http://roi.orf.at/intermedia.

V7, MARSHALL ISLANDS. Jim, N8JV, provided the
DX community a message from Jim, KC7OKZ, stating that for those
of you following Carol/KC7TSX and Jim's sailing adventures on
"Morning Wings", they are now on the Marshall Islands.
Carol is now V73SX and Jim is V73KZ. Jim reports everything is up
and working fine. The Yaesu FT-900 was put into sevice on the way
down from Honolulu when their ICOM-706 bit the dust. It is now
repaired and functioning. They set up on the atoll with their
little Honda genset (only 1000 watts) and a couple of Hamsticks.
He states. "Everything worked great. For now we are doing
everything from Majuro (OC-029) but within the next couple of
months should be able to get out to at least two of the
unactivated atolls and put them on the air. Probably Ujelang will
be first."
VK9L, LORD HOWE ISLAND. Remember that Jack,
VK6CTL, is expected to be active as VK9LT this week (April
11-22nd). Activity will be mostly SSB. QSL via VK6CTL (VK-ZL
only) and all others to HB9QR: Erwin Fink, Toedistr. 7, CH-8572

28435 kHz between 2045-2200z. He was also heard on 24987 kHz
around 1930z the week before. QSL to K5QM with a S.A.S.E.
VU4 AND VU7 UPDATE (Why The Blanket Ban).
Last week, some of our readers wanted to know why there is a
"blanket ban on operations" from Andaman, Nicobar and
Lakshdeep Islands. Sahruddin, VU2SDN, President of the Amateur
Radio Society of India, provided OPDX with the following answer:
"The Government feels that from the point of view of
Defence, it is a very sensitive area and they do not want anyone
to operate any kind of wireless system. The presumption is
apparently based on intelligence reports from people who do not
understand what amateur radio is. ( or perhaps, do not want to
understand ) Even for Indians, going there is permitted but not
to operate from there. Not only this, at present, no licences are
being issued to radio amateurs from Jammu and Kashmir and all the
North-Eastern States. Whether we agree with this understanding or
not, we cannot do anything about it."
XW, LAOS. Ray, HS0/G3NOM, informs OPDX that
the plans for the HSDXA/RAST DXpedition to Laos is now finalized.
Activity will be between April 10-20th, using the group callsign

XW1CKC (HS1CKC), XW1EQY (HS9EQY) and XW1GBI (HS0GBI). QSL to
their home callsign or the Thailand QSL Bureau. Ray states all
amateur bands and modes are authorized and will be attempted.
Please request any special modes or contacts before April 10th.
Ray's E-mail address is: g3nom@rast.or.th.
It is hoped they will have internet access in Vientiane (to be
announced). Suggested main operating frequencies:
50.115, 24.945, 21.295, 18.140, 14.195, 7.052 (QSX NA
