Joint US/Cuba Ham Operation Planned During CQWW


A group of hams was planning to take advantage of the recent thaw in relations between the United States and Cuba to mount a joint US/Cuban ham operation in late October, including during the SSB weekend of the CQ World Wide DX Contest. According to the ARRL Letter, a group of nine U.S. hams, led by Jim Millner, WB2REM, and nine Cuban amateurs, led by Bob Ibarra, CM2KL, planned to operate as T42US between October 21 and 28. The CQWW SSB weekend is October 24-25.
