(AS-203) on 1 September around 11.15 UTC on 20m CW. They are experiencing
adverse weather conditions, but have been able to make more than 5,000 QSOs

uploaded to Club Log as soon as feasible. dUpdates are being posted to

QSOs on 15 metres SSB, operating "from his mobile setup at a construction
site in Zindar, Niger". His QSL manager, N0UN, also reports that Tola - who
"has not submitted any paperwork to the DXCC Desk" for this limited
operation - hopes "to have a 5U callsign granted in the near future", as
his work calls for him to go between Nigeria and Niger for the next twelve
months. [TNX DX World]

Zealand Customs on 31 August and is now at the equipment consolidation

web site has been updated. Fifteen different galleries include 13,064 cards
for the ten Most Wanted DXCC Entities (2004-14), the 61 deleted DXCC
Entities, obsolete prefixes, stations from Maghreb from 1945 to 1962,

Entity as it does not meet the current DXCC Criteria.
