Newington, Connecticut - July 22, 2006
For Immediate Release
With the addition of Section II, Criteria Rule 1c) to the Political
Entity criteria, certain former separation entities may now qualify
as Political Entities. One such entity has been determined to be
American Samoa. American Samoa is now a Political Entity for
DXCC purposes.
As a result of the reclassification of American Samoa, and upon
the filing of a request and substantiating evidence, and with
the concurrence of the DXAC and the Awards Committee,
Swains Island has been added to the DXCC List.
Swains Island, current entity number 337, qualifies as the
first separation entity from American Samoa, now a Political Entity.
The distance between American Samoa and Swains Island has been
determined to be in excess of 350 km as required by DXCC Rules
Section II, Paragraph 2, Section b). QSOs made with Swains Island
on or after 0001Z, July 22, 2006 will count for DXCC credit.
For additional information, including the DXCC Reference Number
for Swains Island, contact Bill Moore at the DXCC Desk, dxcc@arrl.org.
QSOの有効日付が2006/7/22ですね。
これを受けて、間も無く関係者からのDX-PEDIの
アナウンスが有るものと思われます。
