         direct  or  bureau  (OQRS  on  www.g3swh.org.uk)  and  LoTW.   [TNX

         (OC-188)  and  Tongkil  Island  (OC-119)  starting  around    25-26
         September, hopefully for "at least three days on each  island".  He
         will  operate  mainly  CW  running  100-500  watts  into  multiband
         verticals, and might be joined  by  a  second  operator  who  would
         concentrate on SSB. QSL via  M0OXO  (OQRS  for  direct  and  bureau
         cards  on  his   website);    updates    will    be    posted    to

E3     - Zorro, JH1AJT started activity as E30FB at 12 UTC on  17  September
         and made some 1400 QSOs by 2 UTC on the 19th. He  will  try  to  be
         QRV as much as possible in his limited spare time  until  the  22nd

         metres so far, with operations on  17  metres  planned  during  the
         weekend. He has no access to the Internet,  so  logsearch  will  be
         available only when he returns home. "We  will  also  provide  OQRS
         and LoTW confirmation in due course", JA1TRC says. Zorro  does  not
         expect "a large number of QSOs this time, however, FGC  Radio  team
         will conduct a team DX-Pedition to Eritrea in near future".

         Reunion Island (AF-016) from 30 September to 8  October,  and  from
         30 September to 29 October respectively. They will operate  CW  and

         mainly on 30, 17 and 12  metres.  QSL  via  home  call,  direct  or
         bureau. [TNX OK2BOB]

         from the venue of the triennial General Conference of  IARU  Region
         1, which is being held in Albena on 21-27 September.  QSL  via  the
         bureau. [TNX ZS4BS]
OJ0    - On  20 September Juha, OH9MM, and  Martti,  OH2BH  will  attempt  a
         landing on Market Reef to put OJ0AM on the air for one week on  all
         bands. "They also plan to proceed with an experiment  of  real  and
         virtual  Amateur  Radio  coexisting  by  conducting  a   first-ever
         activity from Market in Virtual Reality".
         This operation is part of the celebrations  for the Golden  Jubilee
         the OH-DX-Ring (OH2AM), created back in August  1964 by "a bunch of
         schoolboys" whose idea was "to form  a  club  focusing  on  DX  and
         contests  and  reaching  out  beyond  the  borders  of  their   own
         country". Read the "Recap of OH-DX-Ring"  on  www.qrz.com/db/OJ0AM,
         and expect also OH0AM (Aland Islands) and OF2AM to  appear  on  the
         bands during the next coming weeks. QSLs via OH2BH,  with  "special
         certificate  size  combo  OF2AM/OH0AM/OJ0AM  QSL  cards  for  those
         contacting all three stations". [TNX OH2BH]
OZ     - Mike, DG5LAC will be active holiday style as  OZ/DG5LAC  from  Romo
         Island (EU-125) from 27 September to 3 October. He will be  QRV  on
         80-10 metres SSB. QSL via home call, bureau or  direct,  plus  LoTW
         and eQSL. [TNX rsgbiota.org]
PJ7    - A team of five operators plans to be active from IOTA group  NA-247
         (St.Maarten's coastal islands, new  one)  in  late  September/early
         October. Complete information is expected in due  course.  [TNX  DX
         World]
VK9L   - In less than four weeks VK9DLX will be QRV from  Lord  Howe  Island
         [425DXN 1210]. The main team will arrive on 12  October,  but  some
         team members will arrive a few days earlier. SP5XVY will arrive  on
         5 October, DF7TH on the 9th, DJ5IW and DJ2HD on the 10th. So  don't
         be surprised if you hear VK9DLX some days  earlier  than  expected;
         the main focus of this advance operation will be RTTY. The  website
         for the DXpedition is at www.lordhowe2014.org.

SAC 2014 ---> Organized by the Nordic Amateur Radio Union, the  Scandinavian
Activity Contest's  aim  is  for  Scandinavian  stations  to  work  as  many
non-Scandinavian stations as possible and vice versa. Scandinavian  stations
are defined as  located  in  the  Aland  Islands,  Denmark,  Faroe  Islands,
Finland, Greenland, Iceland, Jan Mayen, Market Reef,  Norway,  Svalbard  and
Sweden. The dates and times for this year's contest (SAC) are:

Complete information of the SAC events can be found at www.sactest.net.

W1AW WAS ---> Look for ARRL Centennial stations W1AW/5 from New  Mexico  and
W1AW/7 from Idaho to be on the air starting at 00.00 UTC  on  24  September
until 23.59 UTC on the 30th. Complete information  on  the  ARRL  Centennial
QSO Party can be found at www.arrl.org/centennial-qso-party.

YJ0X ---> "Everything is on schedule for our arrival in Vanuatu  on  October
3rd", the team reported on 15 September (http://yj2014.wordpress.com/).  "We
hope to have at least two of the stations working and at  least  one  aerial
up for that evening. The emphasis  the  next  day  will  be  installing  the
contest band antennas all ready for the Oceania DX contest SSB leg later  on
that day. Soon after the contest, we'll be adding  the  WARC  band  antennas
and 6m set-up, and when time permits the 160m antenna.  We will  be  looking
for openings to South America and Africa, the two  continents  most  needing
YJ for a new one, so if you're outside these areas, please QRX for the  very
short time it will take to work through callers. Regarding the  Oceania  SSB
and CW legs, Clublog real-time uploads will  be  switched  off  during  this
time and uploaded soon after the contest ends".
