* PLEASE NOTE: The report "could" contain "Pirate/SLIM" operations or
  more likely a "BUSTED CALLSIGN". As always, you never know - "Work
  First Worry Later" (WFWL).

1A, S.M.O.M. (Press Release #1): "Thirty years have passed since 1A made
its way onto the DXCC list. And an activation by an International team
looks to celebrate the uniqueness of this event. So, from the 1st to the
4th July, we will listen them on the air as 1A0C from Santa Maria del
Priorato, home of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta. The callsign
that will be used belongs to the 'The Order of Malta's Italian Relief
Corps (CISOM)", an organization specialized in bringing assistance and
relief during emergencies. This underscores the dual value of this
activation. On the one hand, there's the fun side ham radio, giving a
not so easy 'new one' to as many stations as possible (especially from
the U.S. and Japan). On the other hand, however, there's the noble goal,
as often seen in ham radio, where a spirit of cooperation and mutual aid
are shared by operators all over the world. The team's aim, in fact, is
to raise funds – thanks to donations and contributions from QSL requests –
in order to buy radio equipment which The Order of Malta's Italian Relief
Corps volunteers will be able to use in case of emergencies. The operators
list includes: 1A0X, 1A0Z, EA2RY, EA5RM, EA7AJR, EA7KW, F5CWU, IN3ZNR,
IT9YVO, IZ8IYX, PB2T, SP3DOI and KH6CG as a pilot for North America and
Pacific. They will be active on HF+6m and the QSLs for contacts with 1A0C
can be requested via Francesco Cozzi, 1A0Z. A website will be online soon,
stay tuned! 73 de 1A0C"

2012 TOPBAND MOST WANTED SURVEY. This annual survey of 160 Meter DX needs
is taken by Garry/NI6T and Larry/K8UT and is now available online at:
                  http://survey.hamdocs.com/?sid=11389
Please submit your needs list between now and August 31, 2012. Modifications
submitted after August 31, 2012, will be used for the following year's
survey. The results for 2012-2013 will be available in September 2012.

5H, TANZANIA. Just a reminder that Chas, NK8O/VE3ISD, has traveled to
Mwanza on Lake Victoria for several years working there but has never
operated any amateur radio from Tanzania. Look for him for the first
time to operate as 5H9CP between June 11-22nd. Chas states, "I am primarily
a CW operator. QRP and straight key operators, please be ready! After
fighting through pile-ups with my QRP station at home, I understand the
challenges. The rig on this trip will be an Elecraft KX3 and antenna
arrays will depend on the trees, how high I can get the ropes to go, and
whether a dipole, loop, or vertical will be the best for the site from
which I choose to operate. Times and frequencies will be published
[QRZ.com] before my departure for Tanzania, but they definitely will
not be written in stone. Operating times will depend entirely on my
responsibilities and schedule at the Nyakato Health Center." QSL via NK8O.

9K2, KUWAIT (Special Event). Members of the Kuwait Amateur Radio Society
will be active with the special callsign, 9K2KCBB, between June 13-15th.
Activity is to celebrate "World Blood Donor Day" which is held on June
14th every year. See <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Blood_Donor_Day>
or <http://www.who.int/worldblooddonorday/en/>. Activity will be on CW,
SSB and RTTY. QSL direct to 9K2RA.

A5, BHUTAN. The members of the FGC DX Group (Foundation for Global
Children) are now QRT as A5A. The ClubLog shows as of 2308z, June 6th,
the A5A team made 38068 QSOs with 14819 unique callsigns (20879/CW and
17189/SSB). Breakdown is: 337/AF, 6954/AS, 25273/EU, 4929/NA, 309/OC
and 266/SA. QSL A5A via JH1AJT (see Web page for details). For more
details and update, visit the A5A Web apge at:
                      http://bhutan2012.com/index.php

A5, BHUTAN. Just a reminder (in case you did not work the A5A operation)
that a JA team of operators are now active from a hotel (altitude 10,000
ft.) in Thimpu between now June 14th. Operators mentioned with their A5
callsigns are Shigeo/JA1JQY (A52JY), Nakayama/JA1KJW (A52KJ), Kaoru/
JA3MCA (A52MA), Akira/JK1EBA (A52BA) and Kunio/JA8VE (A52VE). Activity
will be on 160-6 meters [with an emphasis on 6 meters] using CW, SSB and
RTTY. A beacon will be on 50.125 MHz. QSL via their home callsigns.

DXCC NEWS. Bill Moore, NC1L, ARRL Awards Branch Manager, reports that
the following operation is approved for DXCC credit:
        XX9E - Macao; 2012 Operation

DXER ARRESTED IN GREECE UPDATE! Amateur Radio Newsline™ reported an
update this week, and that well-known DXer/World-Traveller Baldur Drobnika,
DJ6SI, stated that "I wasn't charged with espionage. As a reason of my
arrest it was stated that:
1. I performed radio traffic without the approval of the Greek authorities;
2. I owned transmitting equipment which enabled the reception of other
    frequencies;
To the accusation was later added an other point: I hindered the visualiza-
tion of the content of my notebook."

  Kostas, SV1DPI, also reported an update on June 9th, stating [edited]:
"According to the RAAG's site, the Court decided yesterday (June 8th) that
Baldur is innocent for the first accuse (operating his rig). According
to the Court for the 2nd accuse (destroy of his computer and possible
evidence of his activity), he was guilty. This second case will be examined
again in the future, and I hope they get the right decision in the future.
Baldur was, of course, in Germany (he left after the first judge) and
only his lawyer was at the Court. My opinion is that what happened was by
mistake in an island (Kos) very close to Turkey (the 2 coasts are only
some meters far) where the Authorities were too suspicious... When Greek
or foreign hams ask for special calls from the Islands which are too close
to our borders, the Navy has been asked for approval. If Greece would like
to have this policy for some of the islands, it should have signed the CEPT
with the exception of these islands but we didn't. So everyone should have
better knowledge of the laws and stop asking these papers in general
because it has no sense. But unfortunately it seems that we have more
important things to do during this time frame... All SV hams, we ask from
Baldur to forgive our country for the bad behavior..."

EFC 2012 ON THE AIR. Look for many stations (and we do mean many - too
many to list) from the Ukraine and Poland to be active during the "European
Football Championship 2012" between now and July 5th. The on-the-air
activity by Polish and Ukrainian amateurs that are affiliated with PZK
and UARL will have numerous special event stations using the special

              Ukrainian - EM2012, EN2012 and EO2012.
The complete list of callsign can be found at:

award is named in honor of Cass, WA6AUD (SK), whose stories in the West
Coast DX Bulletin taught a generation of DXers, that "DX IS"! The winner
of the 2012 Cass Award will be announced in March 2013.
