MMAA CW CONTEST ---> The Manchester Mineira All America CW Contest,
sponsored by the Juiz de Fora CW Group, will be held on 15-16 May. This
year's event is still for stations located in the Americas. Further
information, including last year's event results, can be found at
www.powerline.com.br/cwjf.
QSL GALLERY ---> The large collection of QSL cards on Les Nouvelles DX's
web site has been updated. Thirteen different galleries include cards for
the ten Most Wanted DXCC Entities (328 QSLs), the 58 deleted DXCC entities
(1030 QSLs), obsolete prefixes (2875 QSLs), stations from Magrebh from 1947
to 1962 (345 QSLs), D5 and DL5 stations from 1945 to 1962 (42 QSLs),

QSLLING TO UZBEKISTAN ---> Mike, UK8OM urges everyone not to try and use
greenstamps when QSLling direct to Uzbekistan, as they are stolen "by
unscrupulous people at the post office" (IRCs are all right). Also, do not
send Self Addressed Envelopes, because only envelopes produced in Uzbekistan
can mailed from that country (self-addressed adhesive labels are all right).
