Another hoax..incorporating Press Release #9

People love gossiping; rising up excitement before things may happen. But such situations may lead to misunderstandings - and certainly -  some wrong information. We just experienced another hoax that hits ZS8-preparations…

The team of 3Y0E has been alarmed today. Some unconfirmed news of unknown origin is hitting some  dx bulletins with details of  Petrus’ next activity from ZS8 - Marion Island.

Remembering recent problems caused by sharing unconfirmed news regarding 3Y0E activity, leading dx chasers to confusion, we would like to clarify that we cannot take any responsibility for any gossips and hoax news spreading across the world.

We suggest all dx news and bulletins publishers to verify any news regarding ongoing preparations and further arrangements of ZS8-activity received with us before publishing them to avoid sharing incorrect news again. Avoid hoaxes, please…

We would like to clarify that Petrus Kritzinger, ex 3Y0E, currently ZS6GCM/mm is set as  team leader for a new scientific team going to Marion Island for 1 year.
The arrangements for his activity from ZS8 are in progress now. Currently we try to collect some equipment for Petrus to make his activity more complete, delivering another most wanted DXCC entity to you at high level.

We would like to ask once more for being aware of publishing wrong news regarding this operation. A brand new, ZS8-dedicated site is under construction now. Its web address will be published soon and more news regarding any further activity of Petrus will be announced right there.
