Ohio/Penn DX Bulletin No. 719

5D, MORROCCO. Mhamed, CN8NK, reports that a special callsign,
5D6MC, will
be used from Morrocco on all bands and modes July 30-31st
(probably for
the IOTA Contest). The QSL Manager is EA7FTR.
7O, YEMEN.
Early last week, Vladimir, UA4WHX, informed OPDX that he is
currently in
Sana'a, Yemen. He stated that he has "met a number of people
responsible for
issuing licenses and the Spectrum Management of the
Yemen Telecom, as well as
two deputy ministers of the Ministry of
Telcommunications and Information
Technology. Vladimir also states the
following:
1. Not a single
amateur radio license has ever been issued in Yemen
in the past 20 years. He mentions, "For those interested in
the
authenticy of the fact I can probably provide a
written statement
of the ministry confirming the
fact."
2. Amamteur radio has never been legalized in Yemen.
"PERIOD"
No legal base, no exceptions so far, but
the ministry is sincerely
interested in promoting
the hobby. They know about it and do plan
to pass
laws for it as soon as possible.
3. When King Hussein of Jordan
was in Yemen, he requested a license
which he did
not get....
4. The ministry has tried to authorize amateur radio
activity in Yemen
a few times, but the attempts have
always got stuck at the Ministry
of Interior offices
being higher or lower.
How can you help get Yemen on the air? Vladimir
suggests to write letters
to both ministries and explain the
following:
A. Why amateur radio is good
(Explain the benefits).
B. Why there is
no danger to their country's security.
C. He recommands sending some printed materials about
amateur
radio.
The
above information is just a small portion of what Vladimir wanted
to relay to
the ham community. He wrote another (longer) E-mail to OPDX
over the past
weekend which has more details and suggestions to get Yemen
on the air. OPDX
InterNet Subscribers will receive this E-mail (complete
and unedited; with
addresses and phone numbers) as an additional bulletin.

QSL via their home callsigns
(same address), direct or by the bureau.
Cards received with insufficient
return postage will be answered via
the bureau. No eQSLs.
GERMANY NEWS
(New Prefixes on the air!). Stefan, DL1ELY, explains why
you have been
hearing all these new prefixes: "Germany has started to
assign DQ and
DR-prefixes. Beside that, club stations can now apply for
2x1-callsigns like
DK2A. All numbers 0-9 mean "club station", there
are no 2x1 callsigns for
individuals. One more important change: While
all DP-prefixes were
extraterritorial area before (like DP0GVN, DP0POL
in the Antarctica, DP0EPO
Munich European Patent Office), now _only_
DP0-DP2 are extraterritorial.
2x1-Callsigns DP3A-DP9Z are "regular short
callsigns" for Club stations.
Please note there are still no 'DI' hamradio
callsigns in DL."
IOTA
CONTEST. Don, G3XTT, IOTA Contest Manager, wants to remind everyone
that the
IOTA Contest takes place over the weekend of July 30-31st
(1200-1200z). All
are invited to participate. Everyone works everyone,
but island contacts are
worth significantly more points, and islands are
also multipliers. The
contest is always popular, with many expeditions
to semi-rare and rare
islands, allowing participants to increase their
score towards the wide range
of IOTA awards. To facilitate this, they are
working towards allowing
contacts made in the contest (provided both logs
have been received by the
adjudicators) to count towards IOTA awards without
the need for QSL cards.
The rules are essentially unchanged from last year
except that the SWL
section has been dropped as a result of significantly
lower participation in
recent years. The rules do, however, spell out more
clearly than before the
format for Cabrillo logs which, while not mandatory,
are preferred.
Nevertheless, they are retaining the two-stage submission
process introduced
last year, whereby you receive a confirmation E-mail
for your log asking you
to go to a Web page to validate your category,
etc. This is simply because,
if you use a logging program which doesn't
overtly support the IOTA contest,
your header information may not be
sufficient to give them all the data they
need. The process should not
take more than a minute or so. The full rules
can be found at:
http://www.contesting.co.uk/hfcc/iota.shtml or via www.rsgbhfcc.org
They look forward to your
participation in the contest and receiving your
log in due course. Photos and
write-ups are also appreciated for the Web
site - to either of the E-mail
addresses below, please. Any questions can
be addressed to <
iotacontest@rsgbhfcc.org > or directly to Don,
G3XTT,

QSL Manager Dennis, PA7FM, informs OPDX:
"TT8AMO went QRT on the 19th on June
after 3 months operation. TT8M will
go QRT on the 1st of August after almost
5 months activity. TT8AMO made
10607 QSOs on 160 to 10m, and so far TT8M made
close to 7000 QSOs on 80
to 6m. During the last week of his operation there's
not much activity
expected anymore due to a very busy week. On the 31st the
antennas will
have to be taken down, so the real last possible day of any
operation is
likely to be the 30th of July. During office hours the 6m beacon
is still
running on 50.097 MHz. DXcluster anouncement or the ON4KST chat are
the
possible ways to get him on the radio when you hear the beacon. QSLs
for
both operation are available. The backlog for QSLs has been cleared 2
weeks
ago, and direct request are being answered within a week after
reception.
Direct request with 1 GS/1 IRC for EU or 2 GS/1 IRC outside EU
will be
answered direct. Others with insufficient return postage or no
return
envelope will be answered by the bureau. A new job for Michael, PA5M,
is
already waiting ( QTH unknown yet ) while Pierre, HB9AMO, already
starting
a new assignment in Niger (5U). Most likely he will not apply for a
license
there as there won't be much operation time left beside the busy
work. As
soon as Michael knows more about the new assignment, it will be
announced
on:
http://www.pa7fm.nl
There (on the Web page) to
be found also online logs for both operations,
some photos and audio files
for the TT8M 6m operation."

FOR THE MINISTRY OF

THERE ARE NO NAMES I CAN GIVE ALTHOUGH THEY DO EXIST
IT SHOULD BE
ENOUGH TO PUT JUST THE MANE OF THE MINISTRY
AND TO THE ATTENTION OF THE
MINISTER.
SANA'A
YEMEN
..............
THEY ALSO TOLD ME A STORY
HOW THEY CAUGHT A CREW OF GERMANS
A FEW YEARS AGO WHO OPERATED FROM ADEN FROM
A HOTEL ON
AMATEUR RADIO BANDS
BUT THE MINISTRY PEOPLE WERE NICE TO THEM
AND GAVE THEIR
RIGS BACK TO THEM AND JUST TOLD THEM TO SHUT DOWN
THEY
COULD HAVE EASILY ENDED UP IN PRISON
IN FACT, THEY DO UNDERSTAND A LOT
ABOUT HAM RADIO HERE AT
THE MINISTRY,
THEY THINK THEY NEED IT. AS WELL AS
THE COMMUNITY AND THE
PEOPLE OF THE COUNTRY.
THEY WANTED TO ESTABLISH A
CLUB AT THE MINISTRY TO TEACH
LOCALS AND LET VISTORS OPERATE BUT THE MINISTRY
OF INTERIOR
HAS NEVER BEEN TOO HAPPY WITH THAT.
THEY (TELECOM PEOPLE)
ARE SAYING, THINGS MIGHT AS WELL
CHANGE SOON.
I HOPE THAT HELPS
USE
IT
IN YOUR BULLETINS
