AU7RS DXpedition to Agatti (AS-011), Lakshadweep Islands [425DXN

follow-ups', Sarath (VU2RS) says, 'the department has not issued
licenses for VU calls, making it impossible for international team
members to participate. With time running out, they've had to
cancel flight tickets, incurring significant losses. Additionally,
our agent's application for Agatti permit for foreign hams was
rejected by Lakshadweep authorities, impacting our plans.
The Indian team has applied for the Agatti permit and is moving
forward with the DXpedition'. See https://www.vu2rs.com/vu7r/ for

| January | KP5/NP3VI: Desecheo Island KP5/NP3VI: DESECHEO 2026
In collaboration with the Vieques Island Amateur Radio Club (NP3VI) and
the Manyana DX Foundation, KP5/NP3VI is expected to be 'a landmark DXpedi-
tion' to Desecheo Island, currently ranked as the 14th most wanted DXCC En-
tity worldwide.
Located approximately 13 miles off the west coast of Puerto Rico, Desecheo
Island has not been activated since 2009. This operation represents the
first Puerto Rican-led DXpedition to KP5 in 48 years, following the historic
KP4AM/D activation in 1978.
Plans are to deploy two self-sustained RDUs (Remote Deployable Units) pro-
vided by the Manyana DX Foundation. The deployment window is 12-14 January,
weather permitting. Once deployed, the DXpedition is expected to operate 24
hours a day for approximately 30 consecutive days, until the scheduled re-
covery date. The stations will utilize state-of-the-art remote operating in-
frastructure from Remote Ham Radio (RHR). KP5/NP3VI will be QRV on 160-6
metres CW, SSB, and FT8 (always MSHV, never F/H). Club Log's Live Stream
feature will be enabled. QSL via M0OXO.
The equipment is currently undergoing extensive stress-testing at the
KP4AA contest station in Cabo Rojo, Puerto Rico. This QTH is located on a
hill overlooking the Caribbean Sea and sits just under 30 miles from
Desecheo. Signal characteristics should closely resemble what the DX commu-
nity can expect from KP5. The station is operating using the KP4ES callsign,
and DXers worldwide are encouraged to look for KP4ES on the bands and help
the remote operators gain experience managing large pileups and long operat-
ing schedules.
The station will remain on the air until 29 December, at which time the
team will disassemble the equipment, perform a thorough cleaning and prepare
it to comply with the strict biosecurity protocols required prior to trans-
portation to Desecheo Island. Remote operator training will continue using
KP4ES from the Palmas RHR station in Puerto Rico.

| Sep-Oct | C8K: Mozambique C8K: POSTPONED ---> The original plan was for the C8K DXpedition to Mozam-
bique, organised by the Czech DXpedition Group (https://www.cdxp.cz), to
take place in January-February 2025. However, it was postponed for the first
time to January-February 2026 due to safety concerns [425DXN 1757].
Now, due to overlapping work and personal schedules within the team, it has
been rescheduled again, this time to September-October 2026. 'This adjust-
ment allows the full intended team lineup to participate and helps ensure
safe, well-coordinated logistics and the best possible on-air performance',
they say. Further information is expected in due course.

| November | ZK3: Tokelau (OC-048) ZK3 - Members of the Perseverance DX Group (PDXG) and the Western Wash-
ington DX Club (WWDXC) are organizing a DXpedition to the Tokelau
Islands (OC-048), currently Club Log's #42 Most Wanted (#24 EU).
The last DXpedition to Tokelau was ZK3A in 2019.
Written permission to enter the island is in-hand, and they are now
working with the government of Tokelau on logistics. The government
will coordinate travel to the island, operating location, sleeping
and meal arrangements.
The team of experienced DXpedition and contest operators include
K3EL, K5GS, KE4KY, KN2P, N7JP, N7QT, N9ADG, W1SRD, WA7CPA, WD5COV,
HA0NAR, IK0FVC, and ZL3CW. The group will depart Apia (Samoa) in
early November, arriving in Tokelau following a 30-hour ferry
crossing. They intend to remain on the island for 14 days. Plans
are to be QRV on 160-6 meters SSB, CW, and digital modes (RTTY and
FT8) from five operating positions. The callsign will be announced
at a later date. Bookmark https://tok-dx.com/ for more information

| February 2027 | 3Y0L: Peter I Island (AN-004) BOUVET 2026 & PETER I 2027 ---> 'The 3Y0K Bouvet 2026 team are still working
on the vessel and helicopter contracts and we are in the final stage before
signing the contracts. We are sorting out the last minute deals and are
still looking for some more operators for Bouvet and Peter I teams. Funding
of these two DXpeditions also heavily depends on us getting a full team of
operators onboard that contribute with their participation fee. Should you
wish to join our team, please contact admin[@]3y0.no or Cezar, VE3LYC.
We estimate to stay around the island for three weeks and the total duration
should be around 38 days to Bouvet and a little bit less to Peter I. We do
have all the helicopter and landing permits issued by NPI to go to onshore
Bouvet and Peter I with a full scale operation. Planning these two DXpedi-
tions is very time consuming where the logistics have to be coordinated with
other expeditions and that is why it takes time to sign contracts. Our plans
are to use the same vessel for both DXpeditions. First the vessel and crew
will take us to Bouvet where we will do landing with a helicopter, then our
equipment will later be shipped to South America and stored there before we
return one year later to go to Peter I Island scheduled for departure late
January 2027. Our plans are to go onshore Peter I with two helicopters first
week of February 2027. This way of running the DXpeditions is a huge
advantage for the #7 most wanted DXpedition to Peter I. Island'.

Fred F4HEC, Nobby G0VJG, Paul G4PUM, Giampaolo IU2EFB, Svein LA3BO, Philipp
OE7PGI, Vlad OK2WX, Alex UR8UQ and Alex UR5UY.
The expedition plans to operate from South Georgia in March 2027, subject to
obtaining the necessary landing permits. The formal permit process will open
in 2026. While logistics support has been secured, collaboration with the
Government of South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands continues and is
progressing well. Bookmark https://www.ardxpeditions.com/dxpeditions/vp0sg
