"Vili was one of the most active and internationally known OH hams in the 1960's through the Finn-Net operated by him and his late XYL, Irmeli, OH3TJ". Martti, OH2BH recalls. "Vili was involved in a vast variety of activities and all foreign hams visiting Finland experienced his hospitality and camaraderie. Vili was a true DXer and contester in the terms' realest meaning - he had worked them all, Kosovo was his last one. He was also a contester who participated and won the very first SAC in 1958 (OH5QN), and still jumped into the 60th SAC last year, using a specially granted callsign, OH2A". =========================== *** 4 2 5 D X N E W S *** ******* QSL ROUTES ******* =========================== Edited by I1JQJ & IK1ADH Direttore Responsabile I2VGW =================================================================== CALL MANAGER CALL MANAGER CALL MANAGER =================================================================== 3D2TS M0OXO EG7SDC EA1AUM OA4EA EA5GL 4A50CRH XE2AU EG8SDC EA1AUM OA9DVK IK6BFH 4D3X W3HNK EG9SDC EA1AUM OD5TX W4JS 5B4AAB G8CLY EH1LSI EA1AUO OD5UI IZ8CLM 5B4AMM UT5UDX EH1SDC EA1AUM OH0B OH2BH 5P1PT DL1PT EH2SDC EA1AUM OX3LX OZ0J 5P2F DL6LZM EH3SDC EA1AUM P3N RW3RN 5P4W PA3DAT EH4SDC EA1AUM P42WW P41G 6Y6STAYHOME EA5GL EH5SDC EA1AUM PD538RNI PD0ARI 8P2K KU9C EH6SDC EA1AUM PI30COM PA1AW 8P6ET KU9C EH7SDC EA1AUM PI4AMF/p PA3EYC 9A0DIG 9A3SM EH8SDC EA1AUM PI4HAM/p PB1WB A61C EA7FTR EH9SDC EA1AUM R120LA RZ5D A61ZX IZ8CLM GB1LAA M0HEM R13KHL RQ7L A62A EA7FTR GB1WSP M0URX R450AKSU RM6LW A71SDC EA1AUM GS8VL M0OXO R450STAR RM6LW A91WFAD EC6DX HF100HCH SP9ZHC R500LWTK R2PT A96A EC6DX HF75OSP SP9PRR RW9JZ RW6HS AO5CLE EA5GTU HI7M RW6HS SK50AX SK7AX AP2MKS EA5GL HK3JCL DK8LRF SX300ML SV2GWY AT9SS VU2NSL HO1SDC EA1AUM TG9ADM EA5GL CB6P CE6TRA IA5MO IK4ALM TG9AOR EC6DX CB6Q CE6TRA II0IADU IM0SDX TI5/N3KS M0URX CB6T CE6TRA II0IGLO IZ0EUX TM107TDF F8GGZ CB6TEB CE6TRA II2IARD I2QIL TM17TDF F8FZC CM6RK EA7HBC II4PTN IQ4FE TM24HC F6KFI D2EB IZ3ETU II5IACF IZ5KID TM40PB F6KDL D4Z IK2NCJ II5IHMW IZ5GHJ TM5SF F8KGS DA0DOM DL8CWA II8IGNL IU8CEU UN9L LZ1YE DK70DARC DK5ON II9IABJ IT9YBL UP5B UN7ZO DU1R DU1UGZ II9IASG IT9MRM UP7L UN6LN EG1SDC EA1AUM II9IHPM IT9CKA VE2CSI M0URX EG2SDC EA1AUM LX9DX LX2A VE2IM VE3DZ EG3SDC EA1AUM LY784A LY5A VP8DPD G3WIP EG4SDC EA1AUM LY784QT LY2QT XR210CHI XQ7UP EG5SDC EA1AUM LZ595IP LZ1KCP ZF2LZ NN1C EG6SDC EA1AUM N3U/FLT93 W3BTX ZP9MCE EA5ZD 9M63MA Khaleelullah Quraishi bin G.
