SPECIAL NOTE FROM EDITOR:
Last week was a rough week for your editor.
After about 7 days of no connection to the outside world, BARF-80 BBS
was finally back on-line connected to the InterNet on Thursday, April
12th. How bad was the connection missed? After several hours of down-
loading, BARF-80's backlog of messages was just over 1400 messages
(and this does not include all the amateur radio UseNet New Groups).
We were very lucky (and thankful) that "APK.NET" held all messages
(few were lost) until the new DSL service was reconnect with BARF-80's
ISP "NSHORE.ORG". The DSL service that pulled the plug because of
bankruptcy effected over 1000 ISP and 81,000 users in northern Ohio.
We are glad it is back!

A station signing as 3A2DX was heard active on

Claude, F5PBL, is now back in France as of April 2nd.
He sent OPDX the following and requested that we publish it:
"Tnx to everybody for the calls. Despite a high level QRN on my side, I
hope I have answered to most of your calls (except USA ... sorry guys,
the QRN was S9 towards the States ! Did my best but ...). That was my
very first DX trip so sorry for my lack of experience in pile-ups
managering! QSLing is OK via bureau or direct (Claude TERRIER,
18 allee du Mail, F-92360 Meudon-la-Foret, France). Note that the address
in Villeparisis (Zip 77270) is OK also but not the quickest one and
please avoid Aulnay (Zip 93600) because the Postal services will soon
stop the forwarding to me. QSL cards should be printed and delivered
within 6 weeks now. I will then start the answering process, starting with
direct requests, of course. I will NOT answer to eQSLs, sorry." For more
updated information and the log (which will be available soon), check

HK0, MALPELO ISLAND (2nd Operation Update)
Jairo/HK5MQZ and Hiro/HK5QGX
have announced that the DXpedition originally planned between April 8-21st
has been cancelled. The reason for this cancellation: The second voyage of
the only ship that sails to Malpelo was cancelled; the scuba group that
had originally contracted the ship cancelled out. Jairo informs OPDX that
the first sailing from April 6th and 13th has no problems and would have
taken place. They had planned to sail on April 6th on the first trip and
return to Buenaventura on the second sailing. But their second trip was
cancelled and they did not have any possibilities for the return trip.
Therefore they cordially present their apologies to all colleagues who
were interested in this operation.

So far we have donated close to $20,000.00 and more will be welcome. US$$ are easily donated but IRCs will help a bit if you can't get greenstamps. Don't get the wrong impression... donations don't "buy" a card... you MUST be in the log also, of course. Please visit the Macquarie Island web site (it is regularly up dated)........."

tree Hi Hi. He also has a vertical and a 5 element monobander on 10 meters
up 20 to 30 feet pointed at a very high tree. I Have a G5RV up 35 feet
and a Vertical and a Icom 751A (Thanks to W7VV Roger and Sue). I do have
a KT34A that's on the ground that I'm trying to get parts for. It is over
ten years old and has not seen much action on the Ham bands. I would love
to get it up and running before we go to North Cook in October for CQWW
SSB Contest with the group from Seattle and Canada for one week. If anyone
has a old KT34A with usable parts on it that they would like to see and
hear operating from both North and South Cook please contact me. I know
not many old and used KT34As are around but you never know your luck...
I am running on a single battery at the moment so if anyone hears me FMing,
let me know so I can save the rig. Yes, I know you may need the contact,
but I like to skip around to the new bands when possible to give the hams
a new one on 17 and 12 meters....... Regards, Victor, ZK1CG". QSL ZK1CG to:
