[Jack]

>On August 3, the ITU updated its Table of International Call Sign Series
><http://www.itu.int/online/mms/glad/cga_callsign.sh?lng=E> to reflect a
>call sign change for Niue. The island will now have the entire E6 prefix
>block. Niue -- an island located approximately 1700 miles northeast of
>New Zealand -- is a self-governing island nation that has been in free
>association with New Zealand since 1974. Prior to the change, the island
>used ZK2. According to the /CIA World Factbook
><https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/ne.html>/,
>Niue is about 1.5 times the size of Washington, DC, and has a population
>of almost 1300 people.
