June. The

been approved for DXCC credit.

TIMOR LESTE ---> Stu Greene, WA2MOE  reports that a 
petition has been  
filed
with the Chief Executive Officer of  ARRL "seeking
removal of UNTAET  
(United
Nations Transitional Administration  in East  Timor)
from  the DXCC  
entities
list and for the addition of  Timor Leste as an
entity.  The DXCC rule  
under
which 4W was added reads: 'The  entity has been
assigned  a call sign  
prefix
bloc by the  ITU. A provisional  prefix bloc
assignment  may be  made 
by  the
Secretary General of ITU. Should such provisional
assignments not be 
ratified
later by the full ITU, the  Entity will be removed
from  the DXCC 
List'.  The
assignment was not ratified and UNTAET returned it to
ITU which has  
reissued
the block 4WA-4WZ to Timor Leste.  It is the position 
of JA1BK and  
myself",
says WA2MOE, "that the addition of 4W to the DXCC
entities list was 
premature
and that a mistake was made".
