given, over the air, as the QSL manager for XV300S (Vietnamese operator).
Unfortunately, according to Steve, when he was in Vietnam recently, he could
not find the XV300S logs and no one knew where they were. He has received
about 300 requests for cards, but, at the present time, can do nothing about
it. Again, this was for the previous XV300S operation with a local operator".
QSL YU ---> Contrary to what reported in 425DXN #421 (the information came
from YZ7ED), Igor, YT1MM states that "the YU QSL bureau is alive and working
(it is operated by Petar, YT1WW), and Yugoslav post office works properly, as
letters for all countries in the world are regularly accepted, despite the
present circumstances (and the letters DO arrive to their destinations, like
Canada,UK, Japan etc.). My radio club (YU1EXY) receives LOT of mail, so I
have first-hand proof for my statements. On the other hand, it is a well
known fact that a number of countries (like USA, Great Britain and Germany,
for example) simply suspended accepting any kind of mail destined for
Yugoslavia since early April. Some other countries, like Japan or Hungary
accept letters for Yugoslavia and such mail regularly arrives, albeit with a
slight delay." [TNX YT1MM]

+ SILENT KEYS + Both Dick McKercher, W0MLY and Iris Hayes, ZS2AA passed away
on 31 May. A top DXer and an IOTA enthusiast, Dick operated from several
African countries in the 50s and 60s, while 96-year-old Iris Hayes was the
first YL amateur radio operator in South Africa in 1937. [TNX The Daily DX]
