When I was first licensed (1952), my receiver was a BC-348-Q and a crystal
control home built CW rig with a pair of 2E26's into an open feed line
dipole antenna.
It took me over a year to work 10-countires. And it was fun! You had to
"look" across the band for someone calling CQ (and vice versa)
Anyone know the manager for 8P6EB? Used to be
WA3BSK, but not anymore. If it's DIRECT, maybe someone has Tom's e-mail
address?

Yes for sure...and back in them days there was not packet clusters, monster
mono-banders and tribanders and 25kw amps either. They well deserve to be
listed for what they worked for sure ! Reading about the old timers is why I
strive to be where I am at today and quite happy with what I have
worked
Sounds like a case of sour grapes from the GMto bad.

Let me clarify...
Mauritius is a Point 1 country (political entity).
3B6
Yoshi,
It would appear that Mauritius (3B8) is the "Political Entity"
(point 1). Because St. Brandon (3B7) is more than 350 km from
3B8 it qualifies as a separate entity under point 2 (separation).
However, since Agalega (3B6) is not 800 km from 3B7, it does not
qualify as separate from eit

Dear Yosi
I don't think any of them (Agalega and St. Brandon) has

I think I owe you an apology, because I'm not so good at English
and I may have wrong understanding about the rules.
Anyone know if my word of 3B7/St.Brandon status is correct or not?

It depends on where you live in the USA. That is not a polar path from
here.
I've worked 3B8CF with less than a watt and never had any trouble working
other stations in that area.
