Please read the advice given in: www.dx-code.org

QSL rules: There is no need to send direct QSL cards since all QSO will be confirmed automatically via buro free of charge. So for those who want to have the QSL card directly via mail please add minimum 3 US $ which includes a donation for children and suffering people of TEMOTU. Please no IRC !!! Hams who do not participate in the TEMOTU donation activity with less than 3 US $ will be excluded from the QSL direct delivery (only via buro).

A donation about 700 US $ was contributed in February 2012 to the TEMOTU hospital Director of Nursing Mr. Augustine Belve as a result of donations from direct QSL deliveries by H4ØFK and H4ØFN. Thanks for a few $ extra in your letters. Also remember that I do not take over any responsibility for lost letters or disappeared $ content, which happened rather often with letters coming from Russia and Ukraine.

About RST: Please use real and true RST reports.

NO commercial sponsors wanted for my personal ham pleasure.

Sponsors who want to support the TEMOTU children hospital without expecting commercial benefits are most welcome.

Thanks to Singapore Airlines for all the reliable flights in the past and for 10 kg extra free sports luggage.

Important: In order to avoid my QRT because of QRM please keep in mind that I will switch off my radio if there is no discipline on the band or if one guy is bothering me by doing QRM I will exclude his whole country for the rest of the operation. In February 2012 it happened with CT and LU.

Please reply only once or twice your call sign when I call "QRZ" or "UP" !

Do not hammer continiously your callsign 5-10 times even I'm being in QSO with others.

My call saying "UP 1/5" means please spread out 1-5 KHz up and stay on one frequency stable. I will go up and down within this section to pick out one after the other. Remember, I always do QSY after each QSO and I do not answer a call on the same frequency I just worked before.

It makes no sense to give me advice via DX cluster or email since I don't have access to internet and I also do not follow your advice or answering questions on the band like QSY x-band?, QRV when?

My weapon to fight back against rule ignorers is NOT to send a QSL card.

More information and fotos about our last expeditions to TEMOTU are given on my webside www.hari-ham.com
