April, from 00.00 UTC through 24 UTC. [TNX 4Z4KX]
IR4X ---> Due to a bureaucratic misunderstanding, the Monte Capra Contest
Team - formerly IQ4A and IR4A [425DXN 615] - has had to change again its
callsign. The new call is IR4X and it will be used starting from the ARRL DX
SSB Contest on 1-2 March. The QSL route for either IR4A (for the 2003 ARRL DX
CW Contest *only*) and IR4X is via IK4QJH. [TNX I4VEQ]
QSL CO3CJ ---> Peppe, IZ8EBI (http://space.virgilio.it/iz8ebi@tin.it) is the
new QSL manager for Juan Carlos, CO3CJ. Cards can be sent either direct or

do cards" and is willing to act as a QSL manager for one or more stations.
Bob can be contacted at rsmith55@iland.net
QSL VIA I3BQC ---> Vittorino, I3BQC reports that he has neither direct nor
bureau backlog for any of his past operations.

either direct or through the bureau): UU0JM (all operations), UU7J/P (IOTA
Contest 2002 from EU-180), UU7J (all operations starting this year). On-line
logs are available at http://www.w1te.com/search.html (additional UU0JM and

and post the logs. [TNX W1TE]

Sudan after 16 March. Latest information and final announcement will be
