Many of the Z60A project participants/operators will be on hand for this occasion.
Z60A QSLs (confirmations) : It should be noted that all Z60A direct requests, OQRS and postal have been mailed. There is no backlog as of today. The last batch of some 700 cards were mailed on Friday of last week. The LoTW confirmations, 54,419, has now reached 55% of the total number of QSOs!
