had such
a wonderful time last March (2005) in Dominica, that we have made
plans
to return and reserved several cottages at Sea Cliffs for the March
2006
WPX. Last March we made 75 people very happy on 160 meters and
several
hundred on 80 meters. Our total QSO number exceeded 6500 for all HF

travels far enough North for me to take a

;-)."

read this, operators Gerard/KE9I (P40QX),
Eric/K9GY (P40GY), Mike/AJ9C
(P40C), Nancy/KB9NSC, and Phil/N9LAH

P5, NORTH KOREA. The following was sent out early in the week by
Mike,
NA5U, on August 2nd.
The Lone Star DX Association in
conjunction with Dr. David Borenstein
announces the
following:
Dr. David Borenstein, KA2HTV, will be traveling to
Pyongyang, Democratic
People's Republic of Korea, "North Korea" during
the month of August. He
has received written permission from the
"North Korean" government to
operate as P5/KA2HTV during his stay.
While radio operating is not the
primary reason for his visit, Dr.
Borenstein hopes to be able to operate
1-2 hours a day and will stay
an additional three days devoted entirely
to radio operation. For
security reasons, he will only operate SSB and
primarily 20 meters.
Dr. Borenstein will arrive on August 9th and depart
on the 23rd. QSL
requests should be sent to KK5DO. Operation from P5 is
at the pleasure
of the host country, so the DX community should keep their
collective
fingers crossed that all goes well.
The ARRL has reviewed the Dr.
Borenstein's plan, and if and when P5/KA2HTV
occurs, it will likely
count.
Dr. Borenstein notes that while his operating time will be
limited, the
success of this operation will lead to further P5
operations in the
near future. Much of the equipment being taken will
remain there, pre-
positioned for subsequent operations.
The Lone Star DX Association (LSDXA) is the sponsoring DX organization
for this operation. For information about the LSDXA, visit the Web
page
at:
http://www.dxer.org/lsdxa/index.html.
ADDED NOTES:
Bruce, KK5DO, reports (via his Web page) that Dave, KA2HTV,
will
operate as P5/KA2HTV from North Korea on August 9-23rd. Online logs
will not be avialable during the operation, as Dave uses paper logs
and
the data will have to be entered into a computer when he
gets back. QSL
via KK5DO: Bruce Paige, P.O. Box 310, Alief, TX
77411-0310, USA. "Please
limit your contacts to one", Bruce says.
"Many hams were not able to work
Ed, P5/4L4FN. Please allow those that
did not get P5 before a chance to
work P5 now. If you are in the
P5/4L4FN log, do not send for a QSL card
from this operation". The
KK5DO Web page
is:
http://www.amsatnet.com/p5a.html
As this bulletin was
being written/prepared, word was released on Friday,
August 5th, that
Dave was now enroute to North Korea. Reports from Dave's
neighbor is
that he left for China Friday morning at 5:00 AM where he
will spend 5
days before taking the next leg to North Korea. Once Dave
enters North
Korea, he will no longer have internet or cellphone usage.
He will be
able to operate from 1 hour before sunset until 1 hour after
sunrise.
Remember that the last 3 days of the trip are extra days that
Dave
will use for as much operating as possible.

VU4, ANDAMAN
ISLANDS (Hamfest in Portblair!). The editor of the "Daily
DX" received a
letter from Mr. S. Suri, VY2MY, Chairman of the National
Institute of Amateur
Radio (NIAR), informing him of a possible hamfest
in Portblair, Andaman
Islands, during the Christmas and New Year holiday
between December 25, 2005,
and January 10th, 2006 (any 3 days in between).
This will also include
possible foreign amateurs radio activity from
VU4-land. The reason: It seems
that the Indian Government was quite
impressed with the VU4 Dpedition and
Tsunami relief operations, as well
as the operators, government and NAIR
officials favorable welcome at the
USA's 2005 Dayton HamVention and the 2005
German Hamradio (Friedrichshafen).
NIAR is now conducting a dialogue with the
government of India on a regular
basis. The officials are interested in
knowing how many foreign Hams would
be serious in attending a Hamfest, as
well as granting them special
permission to operate their amateur radio
stations during Hamfest and
possibly thereafter. If interested in attending
and operating, NIAR
suggests to E-mail Prof. Ram Kapse, Lieutenant Governor
of Andaman &
Nicobar Islands, at Port Blair, India, via
: lg@and.nic.in
ramkapse@and.nic.in
Please send a copy to NIAR
for follow-up and further action
