425 DX NEWS MAGAZINE ---> The August 2019 issue is now available for down-load at http://www.425dxn.org/index.php. [TNX IZ3EBA]

IOTA AND THE MAINTENANCE OF FAIR PLAY ---> "To clarify its position on the
conduct of operations put on for the IOTA Programme, the IOTA Board has
updated the text of provision E.1.2 in the IOTA Programme Rules as follows:
IOTA Management attaches importance to the maintenance of fair play as far
as is practicable. From time to time a set of circumstances occurs where
official intervention is considered justified. One such case is where
there is seen to be apparent intentional unfair, even discriminatory,
treatment of people in the making of contacts or issue of QSL cards or QSO
matches. An example of this is where an expedition to a rare IOTA group
follows a clear practice of discriminating against contacts with non-
participants in the IOTA Programme or, post-event, of deleting them from
the log. In this regard the cardinal principle to be followed must be that
it is immaterial whether the contact is a known participant or not in
IOTA. Failure to observe fair play in cases like this is sufficient
justification for rejection of the operation for IOTA credit on grounds of
it bringing the IOTA Programme into disrepute. All participants are asked
to have regard for our long established tradition of acting in accordance
with the best of ham spirit". [G3KMA, https://iota-world.org/, 11 Septem-
ber 2019]

MOUNT ATHOS ---> On 14 August DX World published information from Theodore,
SV1GRM about Monk Iakovos, SV2RSG, Holy Monastery of Koutloumousiou of Mount
Athos [425DXN 1475]. Read the "Response to SV2RSG", written by Kostas,
SV1CQN, on https://dx-world.net/response-to-sv2rsg-mt-athos/.

SAC ---> The 61st Scandinavian Activity Contest will be held on 21-22
September (CW) and 12-13 October (SSB), from 12 UTC on Saturday to 11:59 UTC
on Sunday. Scandinavian stations (Aland Islands, Denmark, Faroe Islands,
Finland, Greenland, Iceland, Jan Mayen, Market Reef, Norway, Svalbard and
Bear Island, Sweden) will try to work as many non-Scandinavian stations as
possible and vice versa. Complete information of the SAC events can be found
at https://www.sactest.net/.

Z81C ---> James, Z81C (formerly P29HG and VK4GKA) is a new operator from
Juba, South Sudan. "He will be working for an NGO in the capital for at
least a year and a half", The Daily DX reports. When he sets up his station,
he will operate SSB. QSL arrangements to be decided.

+ SILENT KEY + Larry E. Price, W4RA died on 10 September. He was 85. Dr.
Price served as ARRL President (1984-1992), serving simultaneously as Secre-
tary of the International Amateur Radio Union (1989-1992) and continuing as
IARU Secretary and ARRL International Affairs Vice President until his elec-
tion as IARU President in 1999. He served as IARU President for two five-
year terms, retiring and being named IARU President Emeritus by the IARU
Administrative Council in 2009. The ARRL Board named him ARRL President
Emeritus in 2011. "Larry Price was the Dean of the IARU", IARU President Tim
Ellam, VE6SH recalls, "and under his leadership the organization not only
achieved great success for the Amateur Radio Services, but also the respect
of those we work with in the ITU. His work and tenacity on a number of
issues gave the IARU the admiration of many administrations and senior
leadership at the ITU, which we continue to enjoy today".
