(Source: Southgate Amateur Radio News<\/a>)<\/p>\n

“Two CW [Morse Code] stations have appeared on the higher HF bands, claiming to operate from Donetsk, as promoting a separatist ‘Peoples’ Republic of Donetsk’, or ‘NovoRossiya New Russia’.<\/p>\n

The callsigns, D0A<\/strong> and 1C4M<\/strong> are believed to be two operators on the same transmitter. The callsigns are invalid and do not count for anything in ham radio terms.<\/p>\n

While a QSL manager may be appointed shortly in Donetsk, communications are poor, and direct QSL is unlikely to succeed.<\/p>\n

There is some doubt that the stations are really in Donetsk. There is evidence that they may be operating from Kazakhstan.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Many thanks to the Southgate ARC<\/a> for this news item.<\/p>\n

Has anyone logged or recorded these pirates?<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
