COMMENTS:

Does it not amaze you that THREE of these are all countries in the Far East that got added to the list while Martti Lane was living in that area?

OTHER COMMENTS:

P5

Hopefully in OUR lifetime again.. and make more than 21 QSOs!

A5

Jim Smith, P29JS, keeps making noises that he is going there and also Zorro,JH1AJT, has also said that he too is going there..Hope springs eternal!

7O

Zolli, HA5PP, is in the area and he was able to get a license from E3 and has been successful in the past in getting licensing from rather difficult areas... Carl and Martha Henson are also on first name basis with the authorities there..

VU/A

Must be an Indian ONLY operation. There are rumors as there always is..

BV9

This should be on during the month of November 1998.. I hope you ALL worked it! May be a long time in coming again

3Y/Bouvet

Two groups, the SSIDXG, of which our member Gary, W5FI, is also a member of, and the gang that put on Heard Island as well as Peter 1 Island. I think something will happen NEXT January (2000)

VP8/ South Sandwich

Anyone seeing the video (which we have had) understands the difficulty in this one. May be a long time on this one. No rumors at all.

ZL9

Coming to a radio in your shack in January 1999.You better work it then!

BS7

A joke of a country! Was at the time it was added to the list and still is.. this is one of the three we can thank Martti for! Last operation that operated from there was ordered off ROCKS by the Philippine government in big ships with guns. Who knows? Hopefully one day this one will be deleted !

VU/L

Last operation was in Jan 1993. I am not aware of any plans from here.

FT8Z

Major operation for 30 days starting around Christmas time. They will use the same boat that took the crew to Peter 1 and Heard Island. You MUST work this one if you need it at this time.

 

GOOD LUCK and stay tuned.. as a few of these should fall this winter season!

GOOD DXing
