[Dx4win] Re: U60 callsigns from August 1977

[Jim Reisert AD1C]

I've been able to find out some more information, thanks to people on this
reflector:

>From my U60UNK QSL card:

"November 7, 1977, marked 60 years of the Great October Socialist Revolution.
This date is an important milestone in the life of Soviet people and the world
liberation movement.

To commemorate the anniversary Soviet amateur radio operators have carried out
DX-pedition <<October-60>>. It began on board fhe [sic] historical cruiser
<<Aurora>> in Leningrad and went through the cities that had been the first to
receive the radio message of the Revolution's victory."

The matrix of callsigns I know about is as follows (hope the tabs come out):

Callsign	Date		City		Republic	Notes
--------	----		----		--------	-----
U60A		22-Apr-77	Leningrad	E. Russia	UA1C	
U60KLN		08-May-77	Kaliningradsk	Kaliningrad	UA2	
U60RST		08-May-77	Rostov on Don	E. Russia	UA6L	
U60NKW		08-Jul-77	Nova Kakhovka	Ukraine		UB5	(*)
U60BAK		08-Jul-77	Baku		Azerbaijan	UD6	
U60BGD		08-Jul-77	Belgorod	E. Russia	UA3Z	(*)
U60SEW		07-Aug-77	Sewastopol	Ukraine		UB5	
U60UNK		07-Sep-77	Ulyanovsk	E. Russia	UA4L	OBL 164
U60WLA		07-Sep-77	Wladivostok	A. Russia	UA0L	
U60TKT		08-Sep-77	Tashkent	Uzbekistan	UI8	

(*) Best guess of city based on prefix notes in my logbook.


I'm sure there are lots of other callsigns but I can't find any more
information on them.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks & 73 - Jim AD1C
