ARLA/CLUSTER: Dxpedições às novas entidades DXCC (Novembro e Dezembro 2010)

[João Gonçalves Costa]

Expect huge pileups and probably plenty of confusion. 

It is suggested to "PLEASE be patient", "LISTEN" and "KNOW" who/what you are working. 

STATIONS EXPECTED TO BE ON THE AIR LATER IN NOVEMBER:
PJ5/SP6IXF - St.Eustatius; November 18th-December 3rd 
PJ5/SP6EQZ - St.Eustatius; November 18th-December 3rd 
PJ7/K1GI - Sint Maarten; November 20-23rd
PJ4A - Bonaire Island; November 23-30th 

Special thanks to OPDX's Propagation Guru Lee, KH6BZF, for providing the following longitudes and latitudes of the following dutch islands:

PJ2 - Curacao Island 68-Deg. 59' W and 12-Deg. 10' N 
PJ4 - Bonaire Island 68-Deg. 28' W and 12-Deg. 15' N 
PJ5 - St. Eustatius Island 62-Deg. 58' W and 17-Deg. 30' N 
PJ6 - Saba Island 63-Deg. 14' W and 17-Deg. 38' N 
PJ7 - St. Maarten Island 63-Deg. 3' W and 18-Deg. 1' N

SPECIAL NOTE: For card checking purposes, DXCC will not be accepting any contacts for the new entities until January 1, 2011. If you receive applications with the deleted PJ's, these can be checked until December 31, 2010.

However, if your applicant asks, this entity will still count but as a deleted entity. (effective 10/10/10).

If someone brings to you a QSL dated 10/10/10 or after, but before January 1, 2011, this card must be returned to them, unprocessed. The new entities will not even be added to the DXCC computer until January 1, 2011, so submitting them will result in nothing credited."
