Access to the main functions of www.425dxn.org is provided by the 425DXN App
for Android. It is available on Google Play - free of charge, no ads. Enjoy!

425 DX NEWS MAGAZINE ---> The  November 2018  issue  is  now  available  for
download at http://www.425dxn.org/index.php. [TNX IZ3EBA]

GREEN  KEYS  NIGHT ---> The  Greenkeys  online  group  is  dedicated  to the
restoration and use of vintage mechanical teleprinters and related equipment
(the term  "greenkeys"  itself refers  to the color of  the keys on Teletype
machines): http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/greenkeys.  The group has
announced that the first-ever Green Keys Night (GKN) will be held concurrent
with the  Straight Key Night on 1 January 2019, from 0000 to 2359 UTC.  This
is an event, not a contest, and participants are encouraged to call "CQ GKN"
and simply make enjoyable, conversational RTTY QSOs.  "The use of mechanical
teleprinters  is  preferred,  or  simply  get  on  the air  with  the oldest
equipment you  can  scrape together -  no brag tapes/files,  no pre-recorded
messages,  but  have  a  real  conversation  by hand typing  it keyboard  to
keyboard. But even if you  don't have any  old equipment, do get  on the air
and  have  some   fun  QSOs   the  old  fashioned way!"   Email  Jeff,  WK6I
(wk6i.jeff[@]gmail.com) for more information.

TT8KO ---> Ken, LA7GIA has  posted  the complete story  of  his  unfortunate
DXpedition to Chad at http://la7gia.com/Chad/index.html.
