Bob,
Sady that operation was invalid, as were some others previous.
Stems from a DL in Panama creating his own rules and caused a big 
stink leading to changes in the radio laws here - now very messy and 
costly.ARRL DX did not acknowledge these operations as legal nor valid.

Haven't found out if Wil's current OPS going o n now is valid yet; 
but seeing he is using his own callsign/HP1 that follows it may be 
valid.  If he uses a Special Callsign this weekend, and only o the 
Test weekend, that would be the proper procedure. Hope to have answer 
on this later this day or so.

In meantime, best to make the QSO assuming is valid, as I expect it shall be.

I'm also available for anyone needing HP on most bands, next back on 
SAT & EME also.

Vry 73,
