The world waits for the day when the two Koreas become one again, but in the meantime an elusive contact with the Democratic People's Republic of (North) Korea remains one of the most prized conquests in the entire DX world. I'm proud and happy to boast that Ed, P5/4L4FN, actually called me in a pileup one day. How many people out there are lucky enough to be able to say that someone in North Korea actually answered their CQ? That QSO continues to be one of my most cherished ham radio memories.
