SPECIAL QRZ-DX BULLETIN
Date: Wed Oct 6, 2010 9:13 pm ((PDT))

Hello DXers:

Ward Silver, N0AX, who I'm sure most of you know, has offered a 
suggestion for the huge pileups expected this weekend for the "PJ" 
operations.

Ward says:
"Since there is likely to be a lot of confusion with multiple stations 
and multiple pileups, it would be a good idea to suggest that DXers take 
an extra step to insure that they are in the log of the station they 
think they are working.  Here's my suggestion - send both calls when 
responding to the DX station.

DX: QRZ de PJ0A
Pileup: #$%^&*()
DX: N0AX 59
N0AX: PJ0A from N0AX 59 thanks
DX: N0AX QSL QRZ de PJ0A

I am sending a request to the DX stations on the list that they send 
their call sign during EVERY transmission and that they send the call 
sign of the station being worked before calling the pileup again."
**********************************************************************
This goes along with what I've been saying, "Work every PJ station you 
can, but be sure you know which one you are working."

Here is the latest list of calls as shown on the NG3K web site:  PJ2T, 
PJ4B, PJ4N, PJ4/AH6HY,PJ5/K1XM, PJ5/AA4NC, PJ6A, PJ7E, PJ7/K1GI 
(November), PJ7/AA4NC, PJ7/AH6HY.
All of these calls have been "announced" for operation sometime between 
October 10 & 30.

Lee, KH6BZF also provided the following coordinates for the islands:
PJ4   BONAIRE  IS.           68-DEG:28  W,   12-DEG:  15'' N
PJ5   ST. EUSTATIUS IS.   62-DEG:58' W,   17-DEG:  30'  N
PJ6   SABA  IS.                63-DEG:14; W,   17-DEG:  38   N
PJ7   ST. MAARTEN IS.     63-DEG:03' W,   18-DEG:  01   N

GL to everyone for the next few weeks in breaking through the 
pileups.This is history in the making.  Never before have we had so many 
"NEW ONES" active at the same moment in time.

73,
Carl, N4AA
