This one is still considered "pending" and the DXCC desk is looking into the situation. I'm pretty sure that if a government official issued a bona-fide license before he went QRV then the operation will count. Given that country's reputation, it may be a case of one government official saying one thing, and another with different ideas. We'll have to see. If 5N/LZ1QK is ultimately disallowed it will have cost me 3 bands in total (12, 40 and 80).

Meanwhile, though, look for 5N0OCH who's on from Nigeria with a killer signal.

I had the ARRL reject a QSL once but it was easy to gain credit later when the paperwork was sorted out. It seems that the ARRL records the QSO information anyway. Then you can just e-mail Bill Moore at the DXCC desk later once you learn that the operation has been approved. No additional submittal should be required.

I wonder if they will go back and remove credits for 5N/LZ1QK that were already awarded. He's my only Nigeria contact.

I asked Bill Moore about this in Dayton and was told that if, ultimately, the operation is disallowed then anybody who received credit will lose that credit--as it should be, of course.

5N isn't that rare anyway. As I said earlier, there's a 5N on now with a huge signal, and there have been many valid operations within the last few years.
