Antoine, 3D2AG, who has been active from Rotuma since December 21st, has reported that his 11 year old son (eldest) drowned on January 9th. His son accompanied him on his latest trip to Rotuma. They found his body early in the morning in the deep sea. His burial was expected to be on the 11th, and all 3D2AG/p operations are now QRT. OPDX and its readers send out our deepest sympathy to Antoine and his family. 3V, TUNISIA (Tunisia issues personal licenses to operate). The IARU (Inter- national Amateur Radio Union) Web page reports on January 7th: "The first three 'Authorizations to Operate' have been issued to 3 Tunisian amateurs. These are the first issued since 1956. 3V8HB, 3V8MN and 3V1MB will soon be on the air from their homes rather than being restricted to operating from a club station. Issuing individual authorizations to operate is a new pro- cess in Tunisia and involves a number of stages, including equipment con- formity checks. This is great news for Tunisians that the process now exists so that radio amateurs can practice their hobby from homes in full compliance with the Tunisian Laws. The IARU Member Society ARAT extends its thanks to the National Agency of Frequencies, the Ministry of Tele- communications and all involved parties for making this happen." https://iaru-r1.org/index.php/174-news/latest-news/1928-tunisia-issues-personal-licences-to-operate 4S, SIR LANKA.

The DARC honors 35 years of SDR-technology with special callsign and special-DOK. In order to acknowledge the high importance of digital signal processing for communications technology in general and amateur radio in particular, a special event station "DL35SDR" will be active from the greater Munich area throughout the year 2020. The Special-DOK "35SDR" was issued for this station. Today, digital signal processing via Software Defined Radio (SDR) is the generally accepted standard for decoding and generating of radio signals. Commercial services have been using this technology for a long time and nowadays amateur radio is not imaginable without SDR. Prof. Dr.- Ing. habil. Ulrich L. Rohde, DJ2LR / N1UL, was the first describing the possibilities and perspectives of SDR in a congress lecture at the "Third International Conference on HF Communication Systems and Techniques" in London in February 1985 (classified). The title was: "A Sampling of Techniques". DJ2LR / N1UL, member of DARC Amateur Radio Club Munich South (C18) is recognized as one of the pioneers of SDR technology 35 years ago. https://www.facebook.com/groups/darchfref/permalink/2254053784888101 FG/TO7, GUADELOUPE.
