General information.
Denmark, OZ. OZ6OM - OZ50MHz DX Bulletin editor, QRV in Nordic Acti-

I will be QRV round 50.173 MHz ñ QRM, from JO55CE which is on the
South/West side of the Island of Fyn. Here I'm situated at one of our
highest points at 128 Asl. with a formidable takeoff 360 deg. round
the clock. The rig used is an Icom IC-706 with 100 watt wich gives my
2 * 5 Element Yagi's more than 1 Kw. erp. This should be sufficient to
reach stations within a range of, at least 500 Km even on flat ConDX.
If You want to file a log showing Your efforts in the NAC there is an
open class section. Point 1 point/km, bonus 500 point each WWL.

Guantanamo Bay, KG4. W5OZI Pat, writes; Email today from Matt, KG4PT.
He has the quad up on six meters. Same ant. we worked the first 34
QSO's with from GTMO. He doesn't do CW.
U.K. Sov. base areas on Cyprus, ZC4. Steve, ZC4BS, informs/updates OPDX
that Steve/ZC4BS and Dez/ZC4DW, and the club station ZC4ESB are fully
active "on-the-air" on all bands from 160-6 meters, including the WARC
bands, and on all modes. Steve/ZC4BS is also operating SSTV (possibly
the only ZC4 ever on this mode!). Their antennas range from coaxial
dipoles to a 200 ft doublet (basic but impressive .. worked 204 coun-
tries in 5 months on a dipole !!!). Steve mentions that once it cools
down a little they will be building a few quad antennas for 15/10 m.
They are both active in most contests; usually one active on all bands
the other on a single band or even different modes to allow a better
chance of catching a ZC4. Steve states that over 25,000 QSOs between
them so far suggest their signals are getting out "OK", so check the
cluster because they will be listening for you (ZC4BS is also an avid
county hunter !!). Check out these interesting home pages about Steve:
