IOTA NEWS: CHANGE TO QUALIFYING ISLANDS FOR AS-178P ---> The  IOTA Directory
currently lists  Pillar Rock  as the only island  qualifying for the  Andhra
Pradesh State North group (AS-178P).  Recently a close investigation  of the
rock based on drone photos and videos has raised  serious concerns about the
safety of an IOTA radio operation.  The central rock has a serious overhang,
caused by erosion heavily carved in  on the side facing away  from the main-
land. Advice from local fishermen is that the rock would be unsafe to climb,
not because of the level of difficulty involved but because of the risk that
a part of the upper half of the rock could give way  and break without warn-
ing from any  significant weight  placed on it,  simply because of its shape
and the relatively brittle material it is made of.  Listing of the rock as a
qualifying island  in the Directory  revision of 2000  was based on  nothing
more than its appearance as  a spot on a marine chart,  so nothing was known
about the rock's condition.
Management  has decided  that  any attempt to establish  a radio operation
from Pillar Rock would be too dangerous, and is  removing it  with immediate
effect as an AS-178P qualifier.  In its place  it has added  Hope Island  at
16º58N.  This is a recognised island but with a long tail of sandbar/shingle
at the southern end stretching  at least 11 km  to the  "Tail of Hope",  and
even beyond into the extensive Coringa Wildlife Sanctuary,  a 100 sq km man-
grove forest straddled by canals and swamp.  Management takes the view that,
given its isolation from  anything constituting mainland,  it can reasonably
qualify  as  a counter.  However, in fairness  to all activators  who  might
consider activating this new one, it has felt it necessary to insert a delay
in implementation of the decision, and will  only  consider operations  that
take place from  Hope Island  on or after  1 September 2025.  [G3KMA and the
OTA Team, 10 April 2025]

SV1GA/A: ARRL DXCC STATEMENT --->  The following  was posted  to the  ARRL's
website on 4 April: "The ARRL DXCC Desk has determined that the operation by
a DXpedition team from Mount Athos meets the DXCC award program's accredita-
tion criteria.  Contacts with the team, which operated in January 2025 using
the call sign SV1GA/A, will therefore count toward DXCC.  Additionally,  due
to actions taken by local authorities that resulted in the early termination
of the operation,  any future operations  by this team  from  Mt. Athos will
require   additional  documentation  for  securing  accreditation  for  DXCC
credit".

SV1GA/A: COMMENT BY THE TEAM ---> The following  was posted to  qrz.com on 5
April: "On April 4, 2025, ARRL has validated the January 2025 SV1GA/A  acti-
vation of Mt. Athos.
ARRL did their due diligence and took their time to analyze our paperwork,
including the amateur radio license, the diamonitirion (entry visas) and the
our written, stamped and signed Mt. Athos 10-day permit for an amateur radio
operation.
Also, during our stay on Mt. Athos, the local police has opened an  inves-
tigation of our operation based on  a complaint  regarding the alleged unau-
thorized presence of amateur radio group in Mt. Athos. We were told to cease
the operation immediately and we were invited at the local police station to
give statements  and  to present our paperwork.  The local police  concluded
that indeed our paperwork, including the amateur radio license, the  'Diamo-
nitirion' (entry visas) and our written, stamped and signed Mt. Athos 10-day
permit for an amateur radio operation are all in order.
The Mt. Athos police forwarded the case file to the  Thessaloniki Prosecu-
tor's Office,  who found that there were  no legal violations and that there
was no breach of the law.  As such, the case was dismissed.
All these prove beyond any doubt that our January 2025 operation was legit
and is therefore valid.
We thank all the hams around the world  who supported us, and we are sorry
for not being able to make more QSOs.
Our project for the next few weeks is  to write our side  of the story - a
narrative that unfolds over several days of upheaval  in a place of profound
spirituality and awe-inspiring history.  This extraordinary location,  known
to the locals as Agio Oros,  carries a legacy as deep and sacred as its name
suggests".
The whole SV1GA/A log has been uploaded to LoTW, and the OQRS on Club Log is
open for those who would like to have a paper QSL card  for this activation.
The QSL manager is  Martti, OH2BH.  All OQRS proceeds  will go to the  Grace
Charitable Foundation for the support of Mt. Athos.

WORLD AMATEUR RADIO DAY 2025 ---> Every 18 April,  radio amateurs  worldwide
take to the airwaves  in celebration of  World Amateur Radio Day.  It was on
this day in 1925 that the  International Amateur Radio Union  was formed  in
Paris. IARU has announced that the theme for this year's World Amateur Radio
Day will be "Entering  the  Next Century  of Amateur Radio  Communications &
Innovation". Announced special callsigns participating in WARD 2025 include,
among others, stations from Denmark (5P0WARD), Dominican Republic (HI0DMRA),
Germany   (DA25WARD),   India  (AT9WAR),   Morocco  (CN100HR),   Netherlands
(PA25WARD), Spain (EG5DMR and EG7DMR), Turkey (TC3WRD), UAE (A60WARD).

WORLDWIDE HOLYLAND DX CONTEST (WWHC) ---> The  traditional  Holyland Contest
has become the  Worldwide Holyland DX Contest  since 2023.  Any station any-
where can work any other station for points;  contacts with  4X/4Z  stations
will  attract  more  points. The contest  will  take  place on  18-19 April,
from  21.00  UTC on  Friday  until  20.59 UTC  on Saturday  (24 hours).  See
https://tools.iarc.org/wwhc/#/ for complete information.
