A source close to Romeo, Dimitri, a well known DXer of several rare entities
told me quite with a commanding knowledge of the P5RS7 DXpedition “case” that
the disqualification of that DXpedition was a “hatchet job” to protect several
big time #1 honor roll members who didn’t know, or take the NEED to work P5
when it wasn’t on the DXCC list as an active country at the time. The
disqualification was NOT for lack of proof of actually being there but instead
infractions of rule 12 and 13 at the time. Unfortunately that was an “ end
all” decision which is irreversible at any later date regardless of “
documentation” to its validity. Much like an umpire decision ( at the time) in
a baseball game. Made it an “ open and shut” case. According to Dimitri the
DXPEDITION took place “ in fact”. I recorded an interview with him where he
explains the ” politics” of the case and names names.
