This is under construction and will be updated frequently.

3D2, FIJI
From the Conway Reef update press release above, the operators will operate from here as 3D2AD, 3D2AU and possibly other individual callsigns after their operation on Conway between March 1-6th.

3E500, PANAMA (Attention Prefix Hunters!)
Cam, HP1AC, informs OPDX that the "Radio Club de Panama" has obtained a special permit from the Panama Government Radio Dept. Office so any amateur radio operator in Panama during the month of March 2001 will be able to use the special prefix 3E500 (Three Echo Five Zero Zero). This special prefix is to commemorate the 500th year anniversary of the Discovery of the "Isthmus of Panama" in March 1501 by Don Rodrigo de Bastidas. An example is Cam's callsign (HP1AC), he will be using 3E500AC (Three Echo Fivehundred Alfa Charlie). A special QSL will be issued to confirm all QSOs during the month of March 2001. QSL Manager will be HP1RCP, Radio Club de Panama, P.O.Box 10745, Panama 4, PANAMA.

3G, JUAN FERNANDEZ (Attention Prefix Hunters!)
Look for Pat, CE1VLY, to be on the air from Juan Fernandez (SA-005) as 3G0Z the last week of January 2001. Activity will only be on 10 meters. QSL via home callsign.

3W, VIETNAM
Tom, 3W7CW, was active over the weekend on 30/20 meters CW. Check around 14006 kHz between 1530-1630z and 10103 kHz 1630-1800z. QSL via SP5JTF.

3Y, BOUVET
Chuck, 3Y0C, was heard over the weekend on 40 meters SSB for about an hour on 7052 and 7062 kHz between 0400 and 0515z. He was also heard on 20 meters SSB Saturday and Sunday, as well as 12 meters on Friday. His activity may seem short, but this is due to his work schedule which is very demanding, and on most days he can only squeeze 10 minutes in at a time during his breaks to get on the radio. So please be patient with him Chuck understands the high demand for Bouvet, and remember, he is only a one man operation. The following press release below will explain it more.

QSL Manager Mac, WA4FFW, reports that he spoke with 3Y0C on 01/06/01. Chuck has been off the air the past few days because a storm blew down antennas again. Time and weather allowed him to get the beam up 25 feet today. He has the vertical repaired, but because of a storm closing in, he will not put it up until after the storm clears. They have developed an oil leak in the generator, and attempted repairs have not been successful. They can use it but only for 2 hours a day which is sufficient to charge the batteries. He is unable to use the linear without the use of the generator. Chuck will be on as many bands as possible and explains that one of the reasons for such short runs sometimes is that he is trying to work a few stations between other duties to provide as many contacts as possible. He wants to remind the DX fraternity that he is aware of the need for Bouvet Worldwide. However, he is on an official scientific expedition, with specific duties, not a DXpedition. He is trying to give the world as many contacts as the situations there will allow. Because he is on at various times, he has been available to all parts of the world. What must be recognized is the fact that he is not on the same time each day, nor is he always on the same length of time because of his duties.

Mac, WA4FFW, also announced that the QSL address for the 3Y0C QSL cards is as follows: Mark McIntyre, WA4FFW, 2903 Maple Ave., Burlington, NC. 27215 USA. Mac advises that some cards have already arrived. He asked earlier that they not be sent until "this announcement". None have been opened, but he states that he hopes those already received have sufficient postage based on the new postal rates, otherwise they will be returned via bureau. He also would like to inform the international community that the cost to mail a QSL to a foreign country has increased as well effective January 8, 2001. Mac reports he will not have logs until Chuck returns in March, so no QSLs can go out until he has arrived back stateside. Mac said that the delay in announcing the address was to allow the implementation of the new US postal rates. This was done so everyone would have the correct return postage preventing their direct card being shipped via the bureau. He said the reason was based on the postal increase and not that he was moving. He would like to inform all that he has no plans to relocate his antenna farm by moving as he read on the internet was the reason.

7Q, MALAWI
Look for Harry, G0JMU, to be active as 7Q7HB during the month of February. His activity is planned for SSTV, PSK31 and operations on the WARC bands.

7X, ALGERIA
Mohammed, 7X4AN, has been active on 10 meters CW/SSB between 1330-1600z. Watch around 28010 kHz and between 28400 and 28500 kHz. Also, watch around 7001 kHz after 2130z. This past weekend Sadek, 7X4LS, was spotted around 28475 between 1530 and 1600z.

A2, BOTSWANA
Barry/ZS1FJ and Gerald/ZS1GRM are planning to be active from here starting around 1800z, Sunday, January 14th and continuing until late Saturday the 20th. They have requested the callsign A24DX, however, they are having difficulties with the authorities who want them to use the callsign A24/homecall. Activity will be on all bands, mostly SSB on frequencies which will not interfere with the 3Y0C operation. Therefore, suggested frequencies are 28450, 21270 and 14270 kHz at the appropriate times for propagation. On 40 meters they will transmit at 7080 kHz and receive split between 0300-0400z, listening to stateside stations for advice on what frequency to use to suits them. The same will be applied to 80 meters. Barry states that if there should be a demand, they will be active on the WARC bands (18145 and 24950 kHz). They will use an A3S and G5RV antenna with the max power output. They plan to be on from 0300z until, probably, 2200z. QSLs to ZS1FJ.

A5, BHUTAN
Very few QSNs were reported on the Johnson family over the past weekend. Activity by Glenn/A52GJ and son Mark/A52MJ was almost nill. However, Glenn's daughter Melissa/N0MAJ was issued the callsign A52YL and was spotted in the RTTY contest. QSNs report very few takers. According to "The Daily DX" Melissa (16 yrs. old) is the very first YL license from Bhutan. Glenn's wife, Vivien, also has a license, A52VJ, and his other son Paul is A52PJ.

D6, COMOROS (Update)
Josep/EA3BT and Nuria/EA3WL have informed OPDX they have only a few days left before they travel to here to be active as D68BT and D68WL (Please refer to OPDX.486). Activity is expected to be between Janaury 13-28th. They state the following: ".... we are really working hard packaging everything and trying not to leave anything. Due to the great demand in 50 MHz, Santa has brought us an antenna for 6 meters. You can see it in the Picture album at our web page ( http://www.qsl.net/ea3bt ), where you'll be able to find some more pictures of the preparation. Before leaving, we'll send a new E-mail with all the operating frequencies, and about the pilot to whom you'll be able to send all requests and information interesting for us. If nothing wrong happens, the logs will be also available daily at our page....."

DXCC NEWS
DXCC is pleased to announce the addition of a 17 Meter Single Band DXCC award. Applications for this award will be accepted beginning January 2, 2001. 17 Meter DXCC certificates will be dated but not numbered. 17 meter credits will also count toward the DeSoto Cup competition for the year 2001. If you do not know what credits you have on 17 meters, you may contact DXCC for an update prior to applying. This will help avoid duplicates and additional costs. If you have web access and can handle ADOBE (.pdf) files, contact DXCC at dxcc@arrl.org for a copy of your record. If you do not have web access, please send a note to DXCC along with 1.50 USD for postage or an SASE with 1.50 USD in postage. For further information, please contact DXCC at: dxcc@arrl.org

MACAO (XX9)
Last week we reported that a petition was filed for the possible removal of this DXCC entity. OPDX has learned that plans are on their way to prevent the Macao removal situation. Reports indicate that the national Amateur Radio Society on Macao is applying to Region III for IARU membership status. For this reason, DXCC will continue the grace period for Macao until a firm direction is established, either an ITU resolution of the prefix problem, or the likelihood IARU membership. Theoretically, if the DXCC were to remove Macao and then add it again to the list, everyone would have to work it again. STAY TUNED!

DX-CENTRAL (New Look!)
Kelly, KE9KD, reports that after a long overdue redesign, he has finally managed to get the new DX-Central Website online. You will find some of the same features as the old site with improved functionality, and you will find some new features as well. He still has several enhancements to put in place, it's just a matter of finding a little time. For those of you that have links, software or other things that used pieces of the DX-Central website, you will want to update your code.

Dear Radio Amateur Fellows,

PRESS RELEASE TO DX Newsletters and DX editors,

January 2001

World Wide Licensing Information available Free-of-Charge on the Internet It is now five years ago when I started creating my Web pages dedicated to radio amateurs who want to find information about getting visitor's license in order to combine traveling and DXing together. In the beginning the work was mainly about getting information from various sources to have enough start-up material from as many countries as possible. In relatively short time the number of countries was more than one hundred (DXCC) and I considered it as a big and major achievement. To day it 230 and the pages are voluminous.

The licensing web pages contain all the necessary information and contacts needed when you apply a visitor's license. There are application forms and traveling formation and also local hints like addresses, contacts, accomodation and touristic links and similar helping to guide you to and on the DX spot. The standard structure of country subpages is the following: address, telephone and fax number of PTT, paperwork needed, the best way to get a license, license fee, special call signs, how long does it take before you can operate, license restrictions, customs, useful local contacts, places to operate from, and notes.

Early 1997 the ARRL got interested in my pages and they soon started their own service partly linked to mine. Since the early beginning we have been collaborating together and the updating responsibilities of World Wide Licensing Web pages are shared between ARRL and myself. For over two years the number of countries (license administrators) has been 230 of which there exists information on my Web pages. In the DXCC sense the number of entities is much bigger because many DXCC countries have one and same the administrator. A good examples of this is Australia which covers altogether 9 separate DXCC entities and the same licensing system applies in principle to all of them. (In principle because some of them need also landing permission!) Summer 1999 US started implementing the CEPT system and that made everything much easier for US hams in Europe and it also gave a possibility for European radio amateurs to visit US Pacific Islands with the CEPT license. That explanes some of the recent DXpeditions to KH* countries by Europeans!

My greatest work has been in continuous updating of the World Wide Licensing Web pages. The amount of information on the pages is enormous and if numbers can tell something here they are: 165 separate files having a total volume of plain text 1080 kBytes (no picture files). To manage it, keep it in some kind of an order, change the server from one place to another etc. and to update it, is a major project. Because all is taken from my free time and evening hours it may sometimes take a few weeks until I have possibility to update the subpages. Nevertheless I have managed quite well and when the panic has been the greatest the mental support from the users and ARRL has given enough encouragement to continue the work. A free-willing service like this takes its time and if I cannot do the updates immediately then they will be done later on.

The number of visitors in a year has been about ten thousand over the past three years, i.e. 200 visitors per week, which is pretty good figure but could also be larger if wanted. Many, many DX-peditions have used the pages to get initial information for their DX trips. Many are the individual radio amateurs who have helped me and ARRL in getting the new and latest information, experiences and feedback from the DX spots. Altogether the number of contributors to my pages is 165 radio amateurs from all parts of the world who have helped me in updating, improving or correcting the information. For some countries it is very difficult to get any reliable information at all. Here a good example is the Former Soviet Union or Russia and there is simply at the moment no single source which could be pointed and told to be reliable.

My long term plan is to get as many national leagues or radio socities interested about putting up their own licensing pages on their Web server so that the updating work would be nationally handled. So far it has succeeded in quite many cases but it is very hard for those countries where the national society hardly exists or is having serious financing problems and lack of writing English and maybe limited access to the Internet. My wish and plee to the national societies is that they try to do their own visitor's pages to help other radio amateurs, and also to facilitate their own Society's work in the form of less enquiries about application forms and instructions etc. that can be downloaded from the Web. If we can get this work started I wish that within a few years the situation has improved quite much.

The second and most important wish that I have, is that please send your feedback after your DX trip to me. Every single piece of information is important in this respect.

With these wishes I hope the DX year 2001 to be better and higher in DX traveling activity than ever before!
