ANTARCTIC TREATY'S 60TH ANNIVERSARY MARATHON ---> Please note that two new
callsigns are used during the Russian Robinson Club's Marathon celebrating
the 60th anniversary of the Antarctic Teatry [425DXN 1586]. RB60ANT has been

ferred), or via RZ3EC. Two certificates are available: https://hamlog.online
AUSTRALIA: 2X1 CONTEST CALLSIGNS ---> The Australian Communications and Me-
dia Authority (ACMA) recently conducted a survey seeking the views of the
amateur radio community on allocation arrangements for 2x1 callsigns. After
considering the feedback from the survey (415 responses), the ACMA has rec-
ommended to the Australian Maritime College (AMC) that it starts allocating
2x1 callsigns commencing on 13 October. The new VK#A-Z, VJ#A-Z and VL#A-Z
callsigns will be issued exclusively for amateur radio contests and for a
period of 12 months to amateur radio clubs and holders of Advanced Class
licences. The AMC is responsible for assessments and callsign issue in Aus-
tralia on behalf of the ACMA. A list of callsigns issued will be published
on the AMC website: https://www.amc.edu.au/industry/amateur-radio/callsigns.
COMOROS 2022 ---> The Radio Club de Provins (F6KOP) will be active from the
Comoro Islands (AF-007) during the second half of January 2022. Plans are
for a multinational team of 12 people to operate CW, SSB, RTTY and FT8/FT4

known in due course. [TNX F1ULQ]

SV2ASP/A should act now and mail their request to:
Monk Chariton
Docheiariou Monastery
630 87 Agion Oros
Greece.
Apollo passed away on 5 May 2019. He "was in the Docheiariou Monastery,
whose Abbott says Monk Chariton has been taking care of direct QSL requests
and is presently still doing so but that may end at some point". [TNX The
Daily DX]
QSL SV2RSG/A --- > JA1ADT is handling the QSLing duties for contacts made by
JA stations with Monk Iakovos, SV2RSG/A from October 2019. Apparently this
"temporary measure" applies only to cards requested "within the year 2021".
JA1ADT's qrz.com page has more information and instructions.
YASME FOUNDATION GRANT AND EXCELLENCE AWARD ---> The Board of Directors of
The Yasme Foundation (https://www.yasme.org/) has made a grant to the Sey-
chelles Amateur Radio Association (SARA) to establish a facility for the
recently formed amateur radio club.
Also, the BoD has announced that the latest recipient of the Yasme Excel-
lence Award is Steve Babcock, VE6WZ, "for his contribution to the art of
lowband antennas and remote operating. Steve has made available to the ama-
teur community countless hours of instructional videos, for free, on his
YouTube channel and qrz.com page".
Established in 2008, the Yasme Excellence Award is presented to individuals
and groups who, through their own service, creativity, effort and dedica-
tion have made a significant contribution to amateur radio. The contribution
may be in recognition of technical, operating or organizational achievement,
as all three are necessary for amateur radio to grow and prosper. The Yasme
Excellence Award is in the form of a cash grant and an individually-engraved
crystal globe.
