"One of our main goals was to give as many people a new one, especially in
Europe", Bernie says. "In Europe we worked 1459 on CW, 3209 on SSB and 39 on
RTTY for a total of 3,237 QSOs or about 11.2 % of the total QSOs". The group
is now working on getting the logs ready for on line search.
IOCA CHECKPOINTS ---> IOCA Manager Emir, 9A6AA (http://www.inet.hr/9a6aa)
repots that two local checkpoints have been appointed to deal with IOCA
(Islands Of Croatia Award) applications from their own country. They are
Antonio, IZ8CCW for Italy (iz8ccw@mdxc.org) and Fredy, DE0MST for Germany
(fresti@t-online.de).
IR4A ---> IQ (India Quebec) is currently being issued as ordinary prefix for
club stations in Italy, and since it is no longer a special prefix, those who
held an IQ contest callsign shall change it. The Monte Capra Contest Team
(formerly IQ4A, three times CQWW M/S World Champion in the past 14 years and
current holder of the European CQWW M/S all time record) will now be using
IR4A. QSL via IK4QJH. [TNX I4VEQ]
JOHNSTON ISLAND ---> KJ6BZ is the club call used by Bob/V73HT and Bert/V73GOD
(WH7USA) in the past few days while dismantling the club station on the
island. QSL for this operation should go to LTC Bert Godlewski, P.O. Box
1480, APO AP 96555, USA. [TNX The Daily DX]
OX3FV ---> Joergen, OZ8AE reports that Kim Andersen, OX3FV is now QRT from

QSL DU1/SQ9BOP ---> Andy, SP6GVU reports he still has logs and cards for
Jacek's activity from the Philippines (September 2001 - April 2002). QSL
direct to Andrzej Kaleta, P.O. Box 498, Wroclaw 2, Poland or through the
bureau.
QSL FO5RH ---> La Gazette du DX reports that F6CTL is no longer the QSL
manager for Alain. QSL cards for FO5RH, as well as for FG/F2HE, FS/F2HE,
FO0CLA and TX5BTY, should be sent direct to Alain Claverie, P.O. Box 51690,
98716 Pirae, Tahiti.
QSL HK5MQZ ---> Jairo Vargas, HK5MQZ, an active DXers who operated from
Malpelo back in 2001, reports that air mail has increased 100% in Colombia
this year. He suggests to use registered mail, if possible, and to enclose
"two greenstamps or two IRCs" when sending for cards.
QSL T77CD ---> Giovanni, T77CD was active during the CQ/RJ WW WPX RTTY
Contest last weekend (1590 QSOs). Cards should be sent direct only to I0MWI
(Stefano Cipriani, Via Taranto 60, 00055 Ladispoli - RM, Italy). [TNX I0MWI]
QSL ZL7C ---> The blank QSL cards for the ZL7C DXpedition to the Chatham
Islands (October 2002) arrived in New Zealand on 27 January. Some 5,000
direct requests have been received so far: "we have begun processing these
cards", Ken Holdom, ZL4HU reported on 9 February, "and we expect this process
to continue for approximately another 2-3 weeks. We will be doing a bulk mail
out by economy post on 1 March 2003. If by the end of April you do not have
your cards, then may we suggest that this is an appropriate time to consider
whether to send a 2nd request. Direct requests that do not contain SAE or
return postage will be sent via the bureau. Incoming bureau cards will be
processed when time permits".
