Thanks to the Northern Ohio Amateur Radio Society, Northern Ohio DX
Association, WB3LHD, WK3N, K8KR, KQ8M, KA8MVJ, W8XD, K8YSE and K8YVI
for the following DX information.

9G, GHANA. George, K8KR, worked a station signing 9G0R on 18087 KHZ
on March 29. The operator's name was Jerry and said his QSL manager
is LZ1KVZ. As usual WORK FIRST WORRY LATER (WFWL).

C30, ANDORRA. FE6BKD reports that he and another French group will be
operating from Andorra in May. FE6BKD will sign C30EUA while FE6BKP as
C30CAG, FC1LRC as C30EPA and FD1OGG as C30EOA.

CE9, SOUTH SHETLAND. Oscar, CE2NVH/CE9, is a frequent check-in on the
14160 Net around 0000Z. QSL to Oscar, Box 74D, Punta Arenas, Chile.
Also CE9GEW from South Shetland has been heard on 21225 KHz around
2200Z.
 
CE0, JUAN FERNANDEZ. CE0ZVS has been active on CW on 14006 KHz at 0111Z
and also heard around 14025 KHz plus/minus 1 KHz. CE0ZVS also shows up
on the 14256 Net around 0000Z. On April 5, CE0ZCD was active on 14205
KHz at 0324Z. QSL CE0ZCD to P.O. Box 1972, Valparaiso 1, Chile.

D6, COMOROS. Frank, DL7FT, is now signing D68FT. He is scheduled to be
there until April 12 and then leave for Madagascar to try to operate as
5R8FT between April 15 to 25. The following frequencies have been
mentioned: CW  14030/18075/21030/24898/28030 and SSB 14190-14195/18125/
21290-21295/24930/28490-28495. QSL to Frank Turek, W-1000, Berlin 19,
Germany.

FR/T, TROMELIN. It was reported, on the W2MIG Net, that Yoland will be
in Tromelin between May 5 and June 5. Yoland is a meteorologist on a
one month work assignment and should be active during his spare time.

FW, WALLIS ISLAND. Ron, ZL1AMO, will be traveling to FW-Land starting
April 10 to 24 and use the callsign FW0BX. He will operate all bands,
CW, SSB AND RTTY. On April 17, VK2BEX will join Ron on the island and
stay thru April 24. VK2BEX will sign with a FW0 callsign or FW0/VK2BEX.
QSL FW0BX to ZL1AMO and FW0/VK2BEX to BOX 195, Killara, NSW 2071,
Australia.

S2, BANGLADESH. After over a week of trying to obtain an official S2
license, Jim, VK9NS, is finally signing S21U. That is the good news.
Now for the bad news. By the time you read this Jim's S2 operation will
be over. Jim operated on SSB for three days starting Wednesday and only 
during Bangladesh daytime hours (working hours 9 to 5). Word has it he
had to operate during the presence of Bangladesh officials. Jim was
reported calling VK land on 21255 KHz around 1200Z on Wednesday.
Europeans were working him, but the Europeans say Jim had a very very
weak signal. I am sure these events are a disappointment to everyone
including Jim. We should all thank Jim for all his efforts.

MORE S2 INFO. On Monday, the INDEXA Net reported, that Erik ST4/WZ6C
will be in S2 on a mission for four years. INDEXA will supply him with
equipment as required. Erik will be in S2 on April 27.  He has no
license yet, but he may be able to activate this one in the near future.

DX Net on Sundays around 1630Z. He was on this past Sunday, April 7.

14023 KHz at 0132Z and 7004 KHz at 1115Z.  QSL to P.O. Box 50, Riga,
226010, Latvia.
