3Y_bou - Chuck, 3Y0C is struggling against storms blowing down his antennas. Due to an oil leak, the generator can be operated only for 45 minutes a day and this situation will not change for the next two months. Chuck is aware of the need for Bouvet and is trying to work as many stations as possible during the limited spare time he has - from time to time he works just a handful of stations before going QRT due to his other duties. QSL via WA4FFW (Mark McIntyre, 2903 Maple Ave., Burlington, NC 27215, USA), but note that logs will not be available before Chuck returns home. Latest news from Bouvet can be found at http://www.qsl.net/wd4ngb/3y0.htm C6 - Lee, N7NU will operate (mostly CW on 10-80 metres) as either N7NU/C6A and/or C6AJX from Abaco Island (NA-080), Bahamas on 18-26 January. QSL via N7NU. [TNX The Daily DX] D6 - While waiting for D68C, do not forget to work Josep, EA3BT/D68BT and Nuria, EA3WL/D68WL, who will be active with two stations from the Comoros (AF-007) from 13 to 28 January [425DXN 499]. Look for Josep and Nuria on SSB (28495, 24945, 21295/21195, 18145, 14195, 7052, 3795 and 50110 kHz), CW (14025 and 10103 kHz) and RTTY (21083 and 14083 kHz). The pilots will be Pere Galimany, EA3AJI (pilot_d68@ea3aji.com, for Europe and Central/South America); Bill Avery, K6GNX (k6gnx@telemetry.com, for North America); Yuki Deguchi, JI6KVR (ji6kvr@orange.ocn.ne.jp, for Japan, Asia and Oceania). Up-to-date information, pictures, daily logs etc. will be available at http://www.qsl.net/ea3bt. QSL for both via EA3BT either direct or through the bureau. [TNX EA3BT] FO - Kunio, JA8VE will be active (on 10-20 metres SSB) as FO0KUN from Bora Bora (OC-067), French Polynesia on 16-18 January and from Tahiti (OC-046), French Polynesia on 19-21 January. QSL via JA8VE either direct (Kunio Saito, 2-26-5-554 Nishitsuruma, Yamato, 242-0005, Japan) or through the JARL bureau. [TNX The Daily DX] PY - Simone/IV3NVN, Ana Claudia/PP5TO, Barboza/PP5VB and PP5UU were expected to operate from Santana de Fora (SA-088) but rough sea prevented them from landing. A new attempt will take place as soon as the weather improves from either Santana de Fora (as ZX5T) or Araras, one of the other islands qualifying for SA-088. Plans are to be active for a couple of days on 10, 15 and 20 metres SSB and CW. ZX5T has been issued for Gipoia (SA-029) and Santana de Fora only, so if they operate from Araras they will sign PP5TO. QSL ZX5T and PP5TO via IV3NVN. [TNX IN3NVN] PY - Look for ZV3F and ZW3F to operate (SSB and CW) from Fort Dom Pedro II (DFH RS-03) on 20-21 January. QSL via PY3UR. [TNX PP5SZ] UU - Operators from club station UU4JXM will be active from Kosa Tuzla Island (EU-180) in late January, including en entry in the CQ WW 160 CW DX Contest (27-28 Janury) as UU7J/P. Andy, UU6JM will arrive on 23 January and will operate as UU4JXM/P on 20-160 metres CW and SSB mostly during his evenings. On 26 January he will be joined by UU0JM, UU4JMG, UU8JK and possibly maybe UU2JQ. QSL via UU8JK (Alex Kotovskij, P.O. Box 57, 98312 Kerch, Ukraine).

D68C ---> A series of 15 trophies will be available to stations throughout the world, to UK stations and to UK clubs for working the forthcoming D68C DXpedition to the Comoros [425DXN 501]. For full details please visit the DXpedition's most comprehensive web site at http://www.dxbands.com/comoros. The DXpedition is confirmed to take place from about 8 to 18 February.
OEVSV ---> Karl Bugner, OE1BKW (OeVSV QSL Service Manager) reports that effective 1 January 2001 the Austrian Amateur Radio Society (OeVSV) moved to the following new address: OeVSV - Dachverband, Eisvogelgasse 4/1, A 1060 Wien, Austria.
QSL A61AJ ---> Bernie, W3UR reports he is currently waiting for Ali, A61AJ to order new photo QSL cards. All direct (3098) and bureau (13109) requests have been entered into the computer logs and when Bernie receive the cards from the printer they will be quickly sent out. Please be patient and do not send second requests.
QSL 4W/K7BV & 4W/N6FF ---> Steve, KU9C reports that the QSL cards for this operation are expected to be in his hands by 1 February and will begin hitting the mail box immediately. He expects to have most of them out within a few weeks, and all received by the end of February should be in the mail by 1 March. If you did not send enough return postage due to the recent US postage rate change, do not worry, as Steve himself will put the required stamps on the envelope.
QSL 5N6ZHM ---> Paul, W5TUD reports he has received some 200 bureau cards for contacts made in 1999, but he has not got any log from 5N6ZHM for years and cannot get in touch with him.
QSL FO0WEG & FO0POM ---> The QSL cards for the October/November 2000 FO0WEG (Australs) and FO0POM (Marquesas) activities are being printed. The QSL manager for both is SP9FIH (Janusz Wegrzyn, Box 480, 44-100 Gliwice, Poland).

QSL ZL2VS ---> The following comes from Dusty, ZL2VS: "As from 1 January 2001 I am no longer a member of NZART; I will still receive bureau cards but outgoing will be quite slow as I will clear my cards every 3-6 months depending on the volume. I will answer direct cards as usual by return post, 1 IRC or 1 Green stamp is still sufficient for return postage from here. I also still have logs/cards from my ZM7VS Chatham Islands operation in January 1990 if anyone still needs one."
VP8SSI ---> "I have held this callsign since it was issued to The South Sandwich Island DX Group in 1988", Tony, WA4JQS reports. This call has been aired recently and Tony has already received QSLs for this operation, which is most likely a pirate.
WF5E DX QSL SERVICE ---> "It has been brought to my attention that 3B9R [see 425DXN 504] has a new manager (K7ZD) and there is no problem with him to use my service", Les, WF5E reports.
