The Daily DX published the following today:
"Amateur Radio in Turkmenistan was suspended by the Ministry of
Communications in mid 2006. Turkmenistan's "president for life"
Saparmurat Niyazov died in late December 2006. EZ8CW, Vit, reports
there has been no change in the status of Amateur Radio since the
change in leadership of the country. Vit asks that Amateur Radio
operators send emails to the Turkmenistan Ministry of Communications
requesting the authorization of legal Turkmenistan Amateur Radio ops
(EZ stations). It is important to stress the importance of Amateur
Radio (i.e. Emergency communications, etc.). Emails can be sent to
mincom@telecom.tm ."
I also know Alex EZ8CQ is interested in 160
and now has a TS-930S ready to go if they are licensed
again. If you have any interest in hearing EZ on Topband
again, please take a moment to send a note to the above
email address.
73, Bill W4ZV
