OPPS DEPARTMENT! In last week's bulletin we mentioned that Andy, HB9EAS
would be active from the city of Triesenberg, Liechtenstein, as HB0/HB9EAS,
May 14-16. We interpreted Andy's call sign wrong from the information
received. Andy's call sign was to be HB0/DL8GCL. The call sign of HB9EAS
is a PBBS where the information came from. Thanks to Maurice, HB9BLZ,
for bringing it to our attention.

HB0, LIECHTENSTEIN. If you missed the activity by Andy, DL8GCL, signing
HB0/DL8GCL over the weekend, you will have a second chance to work
another group. Remember, the Wiesbaden Amateur Radio Club (DA1WA) will
