INFO

A35PM/ZK2PN - editor's note Sometimes the hottest news turn out to be slims who are spread over the world due to the information interchange between all the DX bulletins. Without being the person who published this information first one receives many messages and notes which reach from HAM SPIRIT (tnx K1BV, KN6EL) to satirical fuss. However even the latter ones are not perfect and change the call of A35PM to A35PN...

KH4 Pat, NH6UY, will participate in the Midway Island DXpedition of AH0W/OH2LVG from August 18-25. He will be the satellite operator. QSL via KE7LZ.

XW Andreas, DK9LM, states that the officials in Laos have several licence applications from DL, UA, JA and PA operators. Due to the high number of applications Andreas hopes to receive a positive answer from Vientiane in the near future.
