Well, actually, it's probably good, but not for a Turkmenistan contact.  I
have 6 QSOs in 1992-93 with EZ9MA, who I feel confident is Gena, UA9MA, who
I met at WRTC last year in Finland.  QRZ.COM shows his email address as
[email protected].  The EZ Turkmen prefixes didn't start until after that, I
think.
Good luck with EZ.  I think it was a lot easier during the Soviet era.  I
have many UH8 cards...
