[Great-River-DX] Kosovo

[Michael and Arlyce Nowack]

Cliff, As always you are correct, WFWL.  Assuming the Z6 block was a recent
ITU allotment, I would assume we have a good chance Kosovo will be a new
one.  Whether or not this particular operation will count is another issue
that I also assume the DXAC and awards committees will need to determine.
Wait and see, but be sure to work 'em.

Mike

Lew, congrat's on working the Z60K.  I worked them on 30 and 40 CW, and
worked a station on 15 CW which was spotted as Z60K but never identified in
the 15 plus minutes I listened for him to sign his call.

It sounds like the IARU representatives and Kosovo hams are working closely
together on getting regulations and licensing in place.  That's a positive
sign.  As you know, under the DXCC Rules, to qualify as a political entity,
there must be a callsign prefix bloc assigned by the ITU (or provisionally
assigned), or the entity must be a UN member state.  I haven't heard whether
the ITU has assigned a callsign prefix bloc to Kosovo.  So I don't know
whether this will count, yet!  WFWL.

73, Cliff K0CA
