QSL INFO -
It is with great regret that I have to announce that Andreas, 5R8FL has
terminated my QSL managership of his station with effect from the end of
July 2012. I have his logs up to the end of June 2012 and am awaiting the
log for July. I will be uploading the latest logs to LoTW and to the search
facility on my web site in the next few weeks. I have plenty of proper QSL
cards left.
I have been given no reason for the termination and have no information as
to whether Andreas has made any alternative arrangements for confirming his
future QSOs.

E6 - Niue
On August 3, the ITU updated its Table of International Call Sign Series to
reflect a call sign change for Niue. The island will now have the entire E6
prefix block. Niue - an island approximately 1700 miles northeast of New
Zealand - is a self-governing island nation that has been in free association
with New Zealand since 1974. Prior to the change, the island used ZK2. Niue,
which is about 1.5 times the size of Washington, DC, has a population of almost
600 people. Further information at:

RAC Bulletin 2012-045E - New Ontario Section Boundaries
2012-08-06
I am very pleased to announce that on schedule, September 1, 2012 the current
Ontario Section will be replaced by four new Sections: Ontario North (ONN),
Ontario East (ONE), Ontario South (ONS), and the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). The
new sections are composed of the following municipalities, regions, and
municipal districts.
I am also thrilled to advise that all four Section Manager Positions have been
filled and I will circulate a formal introduction in the week to come.
Ontario North (ONN)
All of northwest Ontario including Manitoulin Island, Northeastern Manitoulin
and the Islands, Killarney, the cities of Greater Sudbury and North Bay and
Nipissing District.
Ontario East (ONE)
Algonquin Park, Renfrew, Hastings, Prince Edward, Haliburton, Peterborough and
Northhumberland Counties, and the cities and counties to the east.
Greater Toronto Area (GTA)
The City of Toronto and the Regions of Halton (including the City of
Burlington), Peel, York, and Durham.
Ontario South (ONS)
Parry Sound District, the counties of Simcoe, Grey, Bruce, Dufferin, Wellington,
the City of Hamilton, the Region of Niagara, and the remainder of south-western
Ontario.
Please see attached map.
http:///www.rac.ca/en/news/bulletins/2012/Ont_Section_Boundaries._Ver_2.jpg
The ARRL has recognized the four new sections and they will be effective for the
ARRL November Sweepstakes. Several other vendors of logging/contest software
have also announced changes, some not effective until January 2013. Please
verify with your vendor well in advance of upcoming contests.
