Sorry for the off topic subject but thought I might ask as one never knows.
Does anyone know of anyone who restores Brown Bros keys? I have one with a
broken beam/rail. Thought I had found someone, K7QO, but am unable to
contact him.
Thanks for any sugestions.

As I recall from being on the DX Advisory Committee at that time, we were
told it didn't count. I don't remember who told us, but my best guess would
be K5FUV, Bill Kennemer, who ran the DX program at that time. Huge photos
were circulated showing the legs of the scaffolds were in the water an

Well I got news for you about VU4. It will be active again, only a matter
of time.
Let me relate a story about VU4. It point out that things happen overnight
that we cannot foresee. Here is the story.
An Indian citizen, Mani, VU2ANI, was in Port Blair on the Andaman and
Nicobar Islands within
Baldur's operation from Mt. Athos was indeed credited. It was approved by
ARRL and is a counter. If you didn't send in because you didn't think it
counted, well think again!

There have been guest operations from Mt. Athos in the past. In 1987, SV2TX
and SV2UA operated from there. In 1991 DJ6SI operated. I would bet there
were a few operations before 1987 by guest operators. A major problem with
guest operators arose after Baldur's operation. I am recalling from me
Anybody know of any software that supports the USB ports found on the newer

It is my understanding that CT doesn't support USB ports nor does the WF1B

Quite some time ago, there was a disk, I thought either in the Handbook, an

Did someone save Wayne Mills' bulletin regarding the status of this project.
If so, would appreciate you forwarding it along to me. I didn't save it but
now I find I want to refer back to what Wayne stated.

Ain't that wonderful, getting an award for working an illegal operation.
But wait a minute, didn't the boys on H40 say it was legal to operate in
that segment of the band out there? Maybe it is legal in other parts of the
world too? But wait a moment again, did W9WNV or UB5RR really not go to

I wonder how many of you folks have seen the excessive amount of illegal
gear being posted on eBay in the ham section. I am sure a major amount of
that type of gear goes through that auction house. I would say 5-15 items a

Thanks to everyone who replied for the information on the Ogasawara web

Some folks replied with the QSOs that appear for me in the log. THANK

Well authorities do make mistakes and perhaps they issued a call that is not
standard. My suggestion would be instead of complaining to a world forum,
go to the authorities and determine what is going on first.
Botswana issued me an A22 call. It was a mistake. Foreigners are only
supposed to h

Hi to the list!
I know Garth Hamilton personally. He is too ethical a person to do what has
