Midway  and Kure Islands Reinstated as DXCC Entities
05/11/2017   
On  March 31, 2017, the DXCC desk announced the deletion of Midway Island 
and Kure  Island from the DXCC entities list. The stated reason for this 
action was  because of changes in the administration resulting from changes 
inPapahānaumokuākea  Marine National Monument, formerly known as the 
Northwestern Hawaiian Islands  Marine National Monument, of which the Midway Atoll 
National Wildlife Refuge and  the Battle of Midway National Memorial, the 
Hawaii State Seabird  Sanctuary at Kure Atoll, and the Northwestern Hawaiian 
Islands State Marine  Refuge, of  which they are all included. 
After  further review it has been found that the deletion of these two 
entities is not  supported by the changes that were made to the relevant 
administrations.  Therefore, the deletions from the DXCC list should not have 
occurred and the two  entities, Midway Island KH4 and Kure Island KH7K, will 
return to the DXCC list  as separate entities.
