Notes of Interest:
 
SAO TOME.  Glenn, S92ZM inform that he is now operating with a new
antenna (Cushcraft R-7) which has low SWR on all bands 40 through 10
meters.  Hopefully he will be able to work more DXCC'ers on more bands
in the future.  His operating schedule is still sporadic, dependent
upon his job requirments and the resultant time available and he
assures me that he will try to be more frequent on the air for
everyone to get a chance at a QSO with him.  He has also ordered a new
linear amplifier (ALS-600 600 watt out) which will hopefully provide a
bit stronger signal for everyone.  The QSL route is Glenn Britt, S92ZM
C.P. 522 SAO TOME, DRSTP (via Portugal).
 
REP. OF YEMEN.  Jacques, J28JJ come back from Sanaa, located in the
north of the Rep., and told me that it has been impossible to get a
temporary license.  He says also that if it has been possible before
to get a license from the South, this seems more difficult now by
North Administrators, but there could be a solution.  A station
signing 7O1AA has been active on Wednesday 30th in Zedan, JY3ZH net.
The name of the operator is Achmed and he operates from the Radio Club
of Aden and asks cards via Box 485 Aden, Republic of Yemen.  No RTTY
gear but there is one more chance.
