very last bulletin of year 2000, released a day early.
My best whishes for a Prosperous and DX full Year 2001 to all
the readers of the OZ50MHz DX Bulletin. vy 73 de OZ6OM "Matt" (e.d.)

Fr. Guiana, FY. Bruce K2RTH, writes; This morning myself and several
other Florida stations wrked FY5LS on 50.110 CW F2. This appears to be
some new activity from FY but I guess he has missed most of the F2
openings to Eu, appears to be good cw op and according to QRZ a resi-
dent. So while there are still openings the guys in Eu should look for
this station. 73 Bruce K2RTH
Canada, VE. Look for VE2DX to operate (on +/- 14260, 21260, 28450 and
possibly 7070 and 50125 kHz) from Jesus Island between 23 December and
3 January. Most operations will be between 10 UT and 15 UT, but the
station might operate also around 20 UT to 3 UT. QSL via VE2STN (Ric-
hard G. Desaulniers, 461, Romeo, Ste-Dorothee, Laval, Quebec, Canada

All UKSMG & CE3SAD, Philipe, is still trying for EU from his Andean
mountain shielded QTH nr Santiago. He was into VP2M every evening on 6M
TEP. Please also note VP2M & V44 6M BCNS down BUT Winston V44KAA in
Basse Terre very active daily on 6 with 80W to 5 el. No resident VP2M
active on 6 ...yet. I'm working on it ! Only about 6 resident amateurs
there and "too busy for regular ham radio". Re early Dec notes re Bobby
VP2MO...as VP2MDD I'm asked regularly re whereabouts...believed in UK
at moment but not active.Definitely not in VP2M. Our Radio licensing
Authority not offering reciprocal licensing facility to VP2M licence
holders..despite exceptional circumstances and having passed theory and
cw exams. I am proposing following this up as I know several VP2M 's
relocated here in UK post volcano action. Thanks to All Stations in
VE/W/EI/GI/OZ/GM etc for 28.885 assistance..much appreciated. 73 &
Happy Christmas Graham M0AEP/VP2MDD (QSP de UKSMG ann.)
