Hi Guys,
I had to call an old timer for this one. I had a lilte chat with CT1ZW
Júlio who was already ham in 1975.
According to Júlio by that time the colonies from CT were ruled by
numbers (CQ CR 4 - Cape Verde; CQ, CR, XX 6 - Angola, 7 - Mozambique,
8 - Timor, Goa, etc, - 9 Macau) so basically until DXCC agreed on
these countries independence, they were ruled by the numbers.
So I have to agree that CR6 CQ6 XX6 untill 1st Jan 1976 was Angola !
73's Filipe Lopes CT1ILT aka CR6K (PORTUGAL!! heh )
