  EU-189.  (MS0INT Postponed) The June 2012 MS0INT, Isle of Rockall

           that the recent activation by the MM0RAI/p Belgian team made

T2, TUVALU (T2T Press Press). Bill, VK4FW, sent out the following press
release on October 6th: "Today I received some disturbing emails being
circulated from an EU operator. So before this all gets out of hand, I
want to set the record straight. The operators and equipment are ready to
go. The entire team will be concentrating in getting as many individual
callsigns in the log especially from EU and AF where Tuvulu is wanted the
most. Logs WILL be uploaded to LOTW and EQSL within 12 months of the DX-
pedition. QSL Manager is VK4FW. I am personally disgusted that persons
who have nil to do with this DXpedition have seen fit to try to interfere
and cause major problems." For more details and updates, watch:
