The following is the corected text of the message from Martti Laine
ragarding XX9X and XU6WV. The total number of QSOs was mistakenly listed in
the original message as "more than 10,000" and should have been "more than
2,000." Sorry for this! My fingers can't type tonight.

MACAU, XX9X and CAMBOBIA, XU6WV
The XX9X CQ WW SSB Contest multi-multi team experienced fair overall
propagation. 10-meters was something of a surprise with more than 1,000
QSOs during the contest. Overall more than 2,000 QSOs were made during
this operating stint.
The team of OH2BVF, OH1KAG, OH2PM, OH6DO and OH2BH used four FT-1000MP
radios and light weight DXpedition type of amplifiers. All equipment
functioned well.
Please note that all XX9X QSLs for 1996 operations will handled by OH2BH
at his new Finland address:
Martti Laine, OH2BH
Nuottanimementie 3D20
SF-02330 Espoo
FINLAND
Many QSL requests are still coming to Hong Kong. These have been taken
care of for the present, but mail forwarding is not expected to continue
for much longer.
Following his return to Hong Kong, Pekka Holstila, OH2BVF, flew on Tuesday
morning, October 29th, directly to Cambodia for one-week stay. In Phnom
Penh he is expected to operate XU6WV. This operation will be limited to CW
only. All of the low-band antennas used at XX9X were transported to Phnom
Penh.
More reports will be released after Pekka is QRV from Cambodia.
Regards de Martti J. Laine, OH2BH/VR2BH
