There was a note about it in the Daily DX the other day and I have been meaning
to send a note to NCDXA about it as a new business item for the February
meeting. Tromelin is either 9<sup>th</sup> or 10<sup>th</sup>, depending on
whose most-wanted list you use, and was last activated in 2000. I would like
to propose that NCDXA make a healthy ($500-$1k) donation to these guys.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
