* 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 #2). The 1A0C Web page is now active, and
the following press release was posted [edited]:
  "Following the first press release about 1A0C, we proudly announce
that the website about the amateur radio activity that will be held
from 1st to 4th July 2012 in Santa Maria del Priorato is now online.
You can visit it at:              http://www.1a0c.com
  While you'll find full details on the activation on the website, we
would like to remind you the strong commitment of the team to offer
the elusive 1A entity to as many hams outside Europe as possible. So,
since the beginning, we ask for understanding from European operators,
reminding them ham radio is also about being fair.
  The website contains also a 'Donation' page. We ask every ham interested
to work 1A to check it, as the July activation of Malta Order has a goal
beyond amateur radio. Every QSO will contribute to that goal, so it's
really important to raise awareness about our project.
  Thanking in advance for cooperation and help in spreading the word,
we kindly aim anyone looking for further details to get in touch with
p.r. and media contact <1a0c@1a0c.com>."

KP4, PUERTO RICO (Special Event). Dr. José C Vicéns, President of the
Puerto Rico Amateur Radio League (PRARL), announced [edited], "On Sunday
July 1st, 2012, the Puerto Rico Olympic Committee will be celebrating the
Flag Bearing of the Puerto Rico Delegation to the Summer Olympic Games in
London. This event marks the beginning of the transatlantic journey to
represent Puerto Rico in this international event. The delegation will
depart the Olympic Committee and will walk to the Governor's Mansion to
receive the flag that will be used in the opening ceremony and remain
hoisted in the Olympic Village throughout the Games. In celebration of
such an important event, The Puerto Rico Amateur Radio League will be
joining the Olympic Committee in this celebration by setting up a special
event station from the Puerto Rico Olympic Committee headquarters. We will
be using the special callsign "K4O" for this event. We would like to use
our radiowaves to let the world know that the Puerto Rican delegation is
ready for the games in London. Operation will be on June 30th (9:00am-
5:00pm) and July 1st (9:00am-2:00pm) from the headquarters of the Puerto
Rico Opympic Comitte in San Juan."

TEST CRUISE OF OH10X/MM ON BALTIC SEA. Kristina Cruises Ltd with Radio
Arcala, OH8X, are in the process of testing whether a permanent amateur
radio station will suit the maritime environment and serve DXers in their
leisure time, whether cruising in the Mediterranean or off West Africa or
just doing island-hopping in the Caribbean.
  The objective for the first run is to look at potential interference
issues both ways - from the amateur radio station to the ship's navigation
system and from the ship's advanced PC networks to the reception of amateur
radio transmissions.
  But while testing, with Martti, OH2BH, at the helm, another target is
to contact all continents and achieve WAC to celebrate the occasion of
signing a possible permanent agreement for the station to be available
for guests with an amateur radio license.
  The onboard station will be active at the peak propagation hours to
various continents on 14267 kHz from June 20-24th, 2012, and the test
cruise will take the ship to Estonia (ES), Gotland, Sweden (SM1), Aland
Islands (OH0), and back to Finland.
  The ship M/S Kristina Katarina is a 138m long vessel and has a cruising
speed of 15 knots, with a maximum number of 450 guests and a crew of up
to one-hundred. The ship is owned by a private Finnish company with a
Finnish crew sailing under the Finnish flag. Two Finnair jetliners are
backing the operations for change of passengers at a variety of ports
along the way." For more details, see the following Web pages:
