[TNX IZ3EBA] CQ 2014 HALL OF FAMERS ---> CQ Magazine announced on 16 May the 2014 Hall of Fame inductees. The CQ Amateur Radio Hall of Fame was established in January 2001 to recognize individuals - radio amateurs or not - who significantly affected the course of Amateur Radio, as well as radio amateurs who have made significant contributions either to amateur radio, to their professional careers or to some other aspect of life on our planet. This years inductees are: Clifford Berry (W9TIJ), Warren Bruene (W5OLY), John Huntoon (W1RW), Mike Koss (W9SU), Nancy Kott (WZ8C), Paul Laughton (N6BVH), Ralph Showers (ex-W3GEU) and Steve Wozniak (ex-WV6VLY and ex-WA6BND). The CQ Contest Hall of Fame (established in 1986) and the CQ DX Hall of Fame (established in 1967) honour those amateurs who not only excel in personal performance in these major areas of amateur radio, but who also give back to the hobby in outstanding ways. This years inductees in the CQ Contest HoF are J. Scott Redd (K0DQ) and Ed Muns (W0YK). The 2014 inductees to the CQ DX HoF are Joe Reisert (W1JR) and David Collingham (K3LP).

[TNX NC1L] FT5ZM ---> With 14 FT5ZM team members paying 51% of the total costs and DX Foundations, DX Clubs and individual DXers contributing the difference, we have reached our goal of $450,000, the team reported on 14 May. All of our DXpedition costs can now be paid and we can look forward to our next project. Any additional contributions received now, will be used to reduce the approximately $16,500 paid by each team member. In order to properly recognize and thank those who helped us financially, we have uploaded all contributors (57,069 QSOs of our total 170,000 QSOs) to Logbook of the World (LoTW). We will continue to upload any new OQRS direct requests to LoTW as time permits. QSL cards are in the final design phase; distribution will begin to OQRS requestors in mid-June, followed first by traditional direct requests and then by bureau requests. A full LoTW upload is expected in September. Watch sjdxa.org/ft5zm-qsl.htm for updates from the QSL manager (N2OO) on the QSL process.
