3Y0J: THEY HAVE NOT GIVEN UP --- >"Since the cancelation of 3Y0J", N6PSE
posted to the Bouvet 2023 DXpedition's Facebook page on 18 June, "we have
been working closely with Nigel Jolly to form a new plan, with a new owner
of 'Braveheart' and a revised payment plan that enables Nigel Jolly to
continue managing 'Braveheart' and will keep it available for DXpeditions
for years to come. We are working out the details of this plan and hope to
have some very positive news very soon. We have not given up!"
HAM RADIO WORLD ---> For the second year in a row, Ham Radio Friedrichshafen
has been cancelled owing to the pandemic, and has been replaced by a free of
charge online event - Ham Radio World - which will take place on 25-27 June.
Ham Radio World is "a virtual 2D world in your browser which also is a
massive videoconferencing tool. With your avatar you can explore Ham Radio
2021, visit stands, meet and chat with friends in an instant video confer-
ence. There will be also many presentations of which several will be held in
English language. The traditional International Meeting will take place on
26 June from 17 to 18 UTC in room Liechtenstein". Access to the event will
open on 25 June at 13 UTC on https://ham.darc.de/.
KL7FBI ---> Fred, KB4DMQ "is scheduled to leave Shemya (NA-037) on 14 July,
and will continue to operate until then, in his spare time, as KL7FBI", says
Cezar, VE3LYC. "QSL cards will be available from Fred after his return back
home, by direct request to his home address": Fred R. Anderson, 918 Abeto St
NE, Palm Bay FL 32905, USA.
M0OXO & M0URX: QSL BUREAU SERVICE ---> Both Charles, M0OXO and Tim, M0URX
posted the following message to their respective websites:
"A few months ago I considered closing the Bureau option on some of my call-
signs on OQRS as the demands and costs are getting unsustainable. I actually
decided NOT to do that and at this current time, all Bureau cards are now
ready to be dispatched in the next couple of weeks.
However, the global pandemic has caused a major restriction on air freight
worldwide which has led to enormous increases in costs. For example, 10
small packages to ARRL have increased from ?14 in total to ?103, while the
parcel to Japan JARL from ?50 to ?160, if you multiply the increases to all
90 IARU Bureau destinations the cost is quite a shock to bear.
I therefore had no choice but to introduce a $0.30c charge on Bureau cards
on OQRS to help alleviate losses in my future Bureau mailings.
I appreciate to some, this may not be very popular but let me stress, this
is NOT about making money. Applying a small charge/contribution will go a
huge way to combat the deficit in Postage Costs to World Bureaux. Without it
the Bureau service will cease".
MAGIC BAND ---> For those who might have missed the excellent presentation
"Modes of Propagation on 6 Meters" by Carl Luetzelschwab, K9LA, the complete
program video is now available on the Madison DX Club's website:
