Most likley no. But if they did that information would be restricted. We are

No, his logging program had it correct. AN8 (or EA8) is the Canary

Suggest you contact your bureau rep and ask him or her. Seventy-two
cards should have been all in one standard bureau recommended
envelope. When mine come the envelopes are bulging with cards and much
postage all over the envelope. And, the W6 Bureau does a bang up job!

Probably Gokceada Island as LZ1CNN was one of the YM0MA team during

Tom,
I don't think it matters what it says on an IRC. It is exchangable for
postage (one unit of airmail). Probably the stamps on the IRC is that
it was an older IRC the p.o. still had and was bringing it up to the
new rate. But, this has no effect on the redemption value to you.

Today's mail brought me a long overdue QSL card from UA0IDM for EK0I
I worked on Spafaryev Island (AS-059). I guess you could call it overdue
as the contact dates from September 1991. Anyone else receive theirs
recently, or was my card just rolling around the postal system for the
past 10 years.

I think if the DX fraternity tries to establish a DX window on 20 meters
