DX WORLD ---> "As there is not  much  DX news  nor DXpeditions  taking place
nowadays",  DX World has added a couple of  new features to the popular  "DX
World QSL of the Day" (interesting, rare or unique  QSL cards) and "DX World
IOTA of the Day" (pictorial views of various islands) that were introduced a
few weeks ago. Whilst the "Weekly Quiz" puts your  DX knowledge to  the test
(https://www.dx-world.net/quiz/),  "DXCC Entities or Islands by Drone"  is a
collection of  videos  "showcasing particular  entities or IOTA  using  only
drone  footage".  Preceded by Revillagigedo (XF4), Jan Mayen (JX) and Green-
wich Island (AN-010, South Shetlands),  the episodes so far include  Eritrea
(E3), Flores Island (OC-151, Indonesia)  Lakshadweeps (VU7),  Mangaia Island
(OC-159, South Cooks), Nepal (9N), Niue (E6), Nuuk (NA-018, Greenland), Oga-
sawara (JD1), San Blas Archipelago (NA-170, Panama), Tuvalu (T2), Uzbekistan
(UK) and Zanzibar Island (AF-032, Tanzania).  Three new drone videos will be
published every second day.

TQSL: NEW VERSION ---> A new version (v2.5.5) of LoTW's  Trusted QSL  (TQSL)
has been released: http://www.arrl.org/tqsl-download
features as well as  corrections  for defects  found  since  TQSL 2.5.4  was
released.  This release also includes an update to the most recent TQSL con-
figuration file.  TQSL 2.5.5 can be installed to upgrade  any older version.
On all three  supported  platforms  (Windows,  MacOS  and Linux), installing
TQSL 2.5.5  will replace older versions of Trusted QSL while preserving your
Callsign Certificates, Station Locations, and preferences.

+ SILENT KEY + Vilho "Vili" Virtanen, OH3VV passed away on 9 September at 94
years of age. "Vili was one of the most active and internationally known  OH
hams in the 1960's through the  Finn-Net operated  by him and his late  XYL,
Irmeli, OH3TJ". Martti, OH2BH recalls.  "Vili was involved in a vast variety
of  activities  and  all  foreign  hams  visiting  Finland  experienced  his
hospitality  and  camaraderie.  Vili was  a true  DXer and contester  in the
terms' realest meaning - he had worked them all, Kosovo was his last one. He
was also a contester  who participated  and  won the very first SAC in  1958
(OH5QN), and  still jumped  into the  60th SAC last year,  using a specially
granted callsign, OH2A".

DXCC #300을 채우시더니 요즘은 콜사인이 잘 안보입니다.
제가 온에어에 잘 안나가서 그런지도 모르겠네요.ㅎㅎ
