5N9AEM & 5N9RGP QSL

IK0FTA, Sergio, scrive.

Ho parlato con Rino, IK7JTF, (manager di 5N9RGP e di 5N9AEM nonche' di molte altre stazioni dx) e si scusa per il ritardato inoltro di molte altre stazioni DX) e si scusa per il ritardato inoltro di molte qsl ricevute. In questo momento e' preso da molti problemi personali ma ha garantito che, appena possibile, confermera' tutte le qsl in giacenza.

Un problema in piu' e' quello che Rino ha, invece, con le qsl di 5N9AEM (portatile /8 e /6 con call speciale 5N40AEM) in quanto sono terminate le cartoline e ci vorra' un po' di tempo per farle ristampare. Tra l'altro i log di 5N9AEM vengono inviati a IK7JTF, via posta, 1 o 2 volte l'anno per cui, per ora, possono essere confermati qso solo fino a fine 2000 (prima di Natale). Per ottenere le conferme di qso del 2001 bisognera' attendere l'arrivo dei log previsto per le vacanxe estive.

Gli interessati sono avvisati... occorre pazierntare!!!

IK0FTA, Sergio, write

Just talk with Rino IK7JTF (5N9RGP and 5N9AEM qsl Manager and also plenty other Dx stations). He apologise with all radio Ham because of delay on replaying to received qsl, because of some personal troubles, but he garantie that, as soon is possible, he will replay to every request.

One other problem is that Rino has finish the 5N9AEM (portable 8 and 6 and also 5N40aem) qsl and is waiting to restamp new qsl. This will take some time. Some other time will take the dispatch of 5N9AEM log book via mail and this append only twice a year (last arrive: DEC. 2000; Next arrive: SUMMER 2001 !!)

So be patient that Rino as soon he will be able will replay to all request
