Access to the main functions of www.425dxn.org is provided by the 425DXN App
for Android. It is available on Google Play - free of charge, no ads. Enjoy!
425 DX NEWS MAGAZINE ---> The December 2018 issue is now available for
download at http://www.425dxn.org/index.php. [TNX IZ3EBA]
IOTA NEWS ---> "the last date for mailing applications or score updates to
checkpoints for inclusion in the 2019 Honour Roll and other performance
tables is 31 January 2019", G3KMA posted to https://iota-world.org/. "If
postmarked after that date, they will be processed in the normal way but the
scores will be held over to the following year's listing. It is important
that participants who have not updated since the 2014 annual listings and
wish to remain listed should make a submission on or before 31 January".
OPDX MAILING LIST ---> On 11 January the server that Tedd, KB8NW had used
since the late Eighties was "hacked and wiped", and the OPDX Bulletin's
mailing list "is probably gone for good". For the time being, the weekly
bulletins can be still read online at http://www.papays.com/opdx.html (see
OPDX #1398 for further information). Those needing to contact Tedd should
use kb8nw[@]hotmail.com or kb8nw[@]arrl.net, as his old email address does
not exist any longer.
USI 25TH ANNIVERSARY AWARD ---> The United States Islands Awards Program
(USI) celebrates its 25th anniversary in 2019, and is offering a special
award for both chasers and activators running from 1 January to 31 December.
See http://usislands.org/25th-award/ for the details. USI covers islands
that are within the 50 states of the United States, and the U.S Territories
and Protectorates. These islands can be in lakes, rivers, and along the
coastal shore line.
VP6D: QSL CARDS ---> The cards for VP6D are expected to be placed in the
mail system by early February. They will be mailed from the United Kingdom,
so please allow for mail system delays before asking for the status of your
card(s). All requests received up to the mailing date will be included in
the first mailing; confirmation requests after the first mailing will be
processed on a regular basis. Bureau cards will be mailed to the world QSL
bureaux quarterly. If you already requested confirmation via OQRS or by
direct mail, the system will not allow duplicate requests. [TNX K5GS]
