[Dx-qsl] 9Q0AR 2005 QSO Rejected from ARRL DXCC

Wed Aug 30 03:41:19 EDT 2006

Hi Wes!
The 9Q0AR license expired in March 2005, and since that time
there has been no legal activity at all from Congo-Kinshasa.
Gus, SM5DIC; worked a few contacts from 9Q0AR, a clubstation,
after March 2005 by mistake. When he came back from a vacation
in Sweden he was not informed that the license had expired.
Gus is still in Congo-Kinshasa (together with ON5NT and a couple
of more hams working for UN), and has been working on the
licensing problem for more than a year now without luck so far.
But he doesn't give up, and I'm sure that there will be activity again
in a not too distant future.
