I do not believe that is the final list

http://www.amsat.org/amsat/ftp/news/1994/ans344.txt

says there were tests in 1994 and 1995.

------ I believe I have ZRO Mode B number 27 around here somewhere.  I was
KA0YOS then :-)

Hi Bruce, KK5DO

I have earned the AMSAT Technical Achievement Award demonstrating
outstanding OSCAR-13 station performance in an AMSAT - Sanctioned
Test on May 25 1991 with Z-8 endorsement for Mode-B and Z-8
endorsement for Mode-L
The above Award don't show a serial numbar but it is only signed by
AMSAT past President Bill Tynan W3XO

I have also earned the Certificate of Membership on the  ZRO Test "Z9"
Club having succesfully copied the lowest level transmitted by a ZRO test
control station through AMSAT-OSCAR-13 thereby demonstrating
exceptional receive capabilities on date: November 1, 1992 serial # 19
signed by Award Manager Andy Mac Allister WA5ZIB

The Certificate of Membership on ZRO Test "Z9" Club was also earned
by my friend  IK8PPY Serial # 20 signed by Andy Mac Allister WA5ZIB

The full list of those earning the ZRO-Test "Z9" Club Honor Roll as
released by Andy Mac Allister WA5ZIB via OSCAR-13 on date 2 April
1993 during the ZRO Test March-May 1993 is the following:

   MODE-B                                  Mode-L

# 1   W7KIV                            # 1 W7ID
# 2    N8DUY                          # 2 DF5DP
# 3   SM1MUU                        # 3 KG4TM
# 4   DL5OAA                         # 4 VE7CLD
# 5   K5NO                              # 5 DL0WH / DF7IT
# 6   W7ID / AA7FV
# 7   KC0TO
# 8   PA3EON
# 9   PA2CHR
# 10 DL0WH / DF7IT
# 11 DJ1PJ / C6A
# 12 PA0JMV
# 13 N4SU
# 14 KO4HD
# 15 WB5UUK
# 16 OH5LK
# 17 AA7FV
# 18 K9MWM
# 19 i8CVS
# 20 IK8PPY
# 21 WA1JXN

Despite the OSCAR-13 reentry was in December 1996 the last ZRO Test for the
footprint USA-Europe was made on 2 April 1993 and so the above list is the
final list.

I hope this helps.
