DXCC NEWS................................
* Bill Moore, NC1L, ARRL Awards Branch Manager, reports that the
following operation is approved for DXCC credit:
VQ9JC - Chagos Island; Current operation
This operation was previously rejected as a shipboard operation.
DXCC exchanged correspondence with the operator and determined that

* DXCC YEAR-END SUBMISSIONS. Bill Moore, NC1L, ARRL Awards Branch
Manager, reports: "This is a reminder that the cut off date to have
submissions in for the 2009 DXCC Annual and Honor Roll Listings is
December 31, 2009. Applications must be postmarked by this date.
December is expected to be a heavy period so applicants are en-
couraged not to wait until the last minute to get their submissions

DXCC is not responsible for 2009 applications that are logged in for
2010 after February 1, 2010.
We expect for December that the turnaround will increase in excess
of 12 weeks. This is normal for this time of yea,r and we appreciate
your patience and understanding as we work to get all 2009 applications
completed.
