[County Hunter Web] ============================================ QSL INFORMATION -
Pirates & FT5GA:
The following has been released by Carl, N4AA of QRZ DX / DX Magazine and is displayed in its entirety:
Hello DXers: This is a SPECIAL BULLETIN and the following will reveal why: I have been contacted by a person (who I will NOT name) who has the capability to pin point (very accurately) the source of an on the air signal. What I am saying is - this person has the professional equipment and the expertise to monitor a signal on the ham bands and determine to a very narrow area where that signal is coming from. Apparently there was a pirate on 10114 last night signing FT5GA. That signal was NOT coming from Glorioso, it was coming from QUEBEC in CANADA, NNE of Montreal. On two other days, pirate signals were monitored signing FT5GA, one was coming from LATVIA and the other from the SOUTH COAST OF SICILY. These pirates should be relatively easy for "local" DXers to find. They need to be specifically identified and pressure brought to bear on them to cease their deliberate and illegal activities. The "source" that I mentioned above will continue to provide periodic reports like this and I will continue to publish the locations of these irresponsible persons. I ask for those within the areas identified pay particular attention and use whatever means are available to them to put a stop to these activities. Your cooperation with the identification of these pirates will be appreciated by all of us. ---------------- QSLs received Bureau - 4A3IH, 6Y8XF, 9G1AA, 9Q1EK, A25/DL7DF, EG0VRB, FJ/F6FYD, FJ/G3TXF, FK/G3TXF, HC2FN, JD1BMM, LU7DIR, OX5AA, PA6IMD, V26OB, VO1TA, XR800IARU, YJ0TXF, YK9G, YU8/G3TXF, ZL6QH, ZL7/KH0PR, ZP6/DL7VEE.

[Worldwide Antarctic Program] -------------------------------------------- CANADA HAMS - 3 years till current mobile use outlawed:
Mobile ham radios will be required to operate hands free in the Ontario province of Canada, they have less that 3 years to comply. "To help these businesses stay competitive, Ontario is granting a three-year phase-out period for the commercial use of two-way radios, including mobile and CB radios, to allow for hands-free technologies to be developed." "The use of hand-held radios by amateur radio operators (who provide assistance, especially in emergency situations such as severe storms and blackouts) will be phased out within three years, to allow hands-free technologies to be developed." More info at: http://news.ontario.ca/mto/en/2009/09/ontarios-new-rules-for-hand-held-wireless-and-entertainment-devices.html -------------------------------------------- CONWAY REEF:
Instead of yesterday fears, the crew is safe on Conway Reef. This morning Oct 1st it had been received on 14, 18and 7 MHz, both in SSB/CW with good sigs in East Asia and US West coast. QSL manager DJ8NK direct, bureau (new IRC's are OK, old IRC's with expiration date 31.Dec.2009 are not OK, because QSL cards most likely will be send out in January 2010). For more info and updates see their web page at: www.conwayreef2009.de/index.html -------------------------------------------- SOUTH KOREA:
