offers
ham radio “Pisan Tower Award”

Event Date: June 1 & 2, 2002

PRESS RELEASE
On June 1 & 2, 2002, Metro Amateur Radio Club (MAC) and the Pisa Amateur
Radio Club will participate in a joint venture of International
significance. Niles, Illinois and Pisa, Italy are Sister Cities and in an
effort to bring the communities a little closer, each club will set-up and
operate amateur radio stations from their respective leaning towers.

For decades amateur radio operators have enhanced International goodwill
utilizing wireless communication. This event continues the tradition by
drawing attention to two communities thousands of miles apart with something
very special in common. The Pisa club will locate at the legendary Leaning
Tower of Pisa, while the MAC group operates from America’s Leaning Tower in
Niles, Illinois.

Using both voice and Morse code, ham operators around the world will try to
contact both towers in order to win a special “Pisan Tower Award.” MAC
secretary, and event organizer, Mike Dinelli: “We anticipate making contact
with over 2,000 radio amateurs worldwide during this event.”

Interested parties can obtain the latest information about the event by
visiting the MAC website at http://www.qsl.net/mac

I filed a comment, but could not find this proposal on the FCC web

Can you tell us (me) where to view it on the FCC page, as well as

Subject: [Fists] cheap ham mags info pse!
Message-ID: <3CF9A8AD.D88982EB@earthlink.net>

About 5 years ago I subscribed to both 73 and CQ magazines, using a subscription
broker/bulk reseller outfit, which was run I believe by a ham and his XYL.  I am
seeking information on that vendor, or one like him, so I can subscribe again. I
can't remember a thing about the deal other than the low price. At the time, a
year's subscription to either magazine ran about $9.00, which was much much less
than the rate you could get at the time directly through the magazines
themselves. Any info, name,addresses, phone numbers, email, will be most
appreciated. 73. . .

Message-ID: <14a.eb72bec.2a2b9b12@aol.com>

Just wanted to say that it was very nice to talk with those of you I got to 
meet in Dayton. A friend and I had a really nice time at the QRP get together 
on Friday night, combined with the Fist social event also. The QRP club did a 
bang-up BBQ and those who missed it, really missed some great eats. I am not 
personally much of a QRP op, but I was certainly impressed with the really 
fine craftsmanship that was displayed by many builders in the contest and 
display events. Sure glad someone can see that tiny stuff. VERY impressive 
skill and care went into the construction of the devices and rigs that were 
shown. I was also most impressed by the enthusiasm of the QRP group as a 
whole. They were all very nice and answered any questions that anyone had. 
They are a very dedicated group of hams and it was great to see ops who were 
really into HAM RADIO, and not plotting or politicking for a change. ( a 
common problem we have here in Dayton) I would really encourage FISTS members 
to try and make it to the social event next year. It's a great time to put a 
face with that call sign you worked. You will usually be surprised when you 
meet folks. Jess, AI9L told me I was far less good looking than he ever 
imagined. The conversations went from everything ham radio. ARRL, FISTS, DX, 
Keys, CW, etc. were all heard or overheard. Great time to make new friends 
and visit with old ones. AND for an added treat, if you go by the FISTS booth 
they will put you to work.....great fun........73 Al/W8FAX/2192

Subject: [Fists] QSL cards for PY7COU
Message-ID: <5.0.0.25.1.20020617201254.009ebb60@pop.rev.net>

We continue to get QSL cards for PY7COU.  We have 58 cards on hand.

This is shown on the FISTS QSL Bureau web page in List 2a.

We have sent him cards and letters requesting SASE''s to the address I have 
on file:

	Paulo Inojosa - PY7COU
	R.Padre Manoel Da Cunha, 112/502		
	Piedade-Jaboatao-Pe  CEP 54420 - 006 	
	Brazil		

We have had no reply from him, nor have we received any QSL cards from him.

I'm sure many of you are of the impression that Paulo will QSL via the 
Bureau.
However, to date he has not.

Therefore, Please ALL MEMBERS:

If you QSO Paulo ask him specifically if he DOES want to QSL via the Bureau.

If he says "Yes" please advise him that we need SASE's.

And, we need him to respond with his QSL for those members whose cards we
have sent him in the past.

As many of you know, Vlad - UA6JD has recruited Keith, K0KG to be his QSL 
manager.

Perhaps someone needs to ask Paulo if he needs a QSL manager for FISTS 
contacts.

I need your help to find out what I should do with these cards for PY7COU 
which just keep
coming in to the Bureau.

Subject: [Fists] Extra Issue 3?
Message-ID: <003001c217c8$3c6bf000$edd179a5@h4s6u1>

Does anyone have an Issue 3 of the Keynote that they don't need? Michael
AE6CQ is mentioned as a "new FISTS" member in the listing of that issue, but
he didn't get a copy of it.

We gave all our extras out at the Hamvntion at samples. If you have a copy
that you could send Michael, pse email him at ae6cq@juno.com . He'd be happy
to reimburse for the postage.

Thanks,
Nancy

On 30th June 2002 at 2359 UTC Australian Coast Stations Brisbane =
radio/VIB, Darwin radio/VID, Melbourne radio/VIM, Perth radio/VIP, =
Sydney radio/VIS and Townsville radio/VIT will officially close down. =
Our final broadcast will be made on frequencies 2182, 4125, 6215, 8291, =
12290 and 16420 kHz at approx 2350UTC.

 Australia's coast radio service started in February 1912 - two months =
before the Titanic disaster and has continued uninterrupted through two =
world wars but has not survived technology, business or government =
legislation.

 The guarding of the airwaves in the Australian Search and Rescue Region =

constructed two new radio stations at Charleville in Queensland  =
(Callsign VIC) and Wiluna in Western Australia (Callsign VIW) and will =
provide Digital Selective Calling (DSC) facilities with follow-on =
communications via R/T or FEC modes.

 At this time we remember and salute all the radio officers past and =
present who without their dedication and skill, many lives on the high =
seas would have been lost.
