COOK ISLANDS - 50YRS OF INDEPENDENCE - Note Call sign list below 1 January through 31 December 2015 To celebrate the 50th anniversary of self governance in the Cook Islands, the seven resident radio amateurs will be granted the use of a special call sign. E50A is Andy (E51AND) on Rarotonga (OC-013), South Cooks. E50B is Bob (E51BQ) on Rarotonga (OC-013), South Cooks. E50D is Des (E51DD) on Aitutaki (OC-083), South Cooks. E50J is Jim (E51JD) on Rarotonga (OC-013), South Cooks. E50K is Kat (E51CK/E51KC) on Rarotonga (OC-013), South Cooks. E50V is Victor (E51CG) on Rarotonga (OC-013), South Cooks. E50W is Warwick (E51WL) on Penrhyn (OC-082), North Cooks. NOTE: E50A is the only resident ham active on CW. We are pretty isolated, have extremely limited Internet access and none of us are avid DXers - much more the rag chewing types, Andy E51AND says. Nobody uses eQSL or LoTW, although Andy is working at it. Visitors to the islands wishing to operate will be eligible only for the standard E51xxx style calls.
