| 05/08-20/08 | N5J: Jarvis Island (OC-081) N5J: JARVIS ISLAND IOTA/POTA News ---> 'Since the Dateline DX Association
announced plans for activating Jarvis Island this summer, many have asked if
we could arrange with IOTA and POTA program organizers to secure approval of
our DXpedition.
Jarvis is one of the rarest of the IOTA counters, having been off the air
for 34 years. It is needed by 82% of IOTA program participants.
Because of the requirements set by the permit of the USFWS, while the sta-
tions, antennas and power are all set up on Jarvis Island, the local opera-
tors must conduct the DXpedition from the MV 'Magnet' which will still be in
the Jarvis Island National Wildlife Refuge, just offshore.
Both the IOTA and POTA programs have agreed to recognize QSOs made by the
local operators but will not allow QSOs made by internet remote operators to
count. Therefore QSOs made by AA7JV, HA7RY, N1DG, KO8SCA and KN4EEI will
count for the awards (IOTA OC-081 and POTA K-0115).
Daily uploads by the N5J team to Club Log will identify the operators. Addi-
tionally, at the beginning of each operator shift the team will endeavor to
post on the cluster the callsign of the operator so chasers have some real
time notice. At this time, all phone operations are expected to be by the at
island team as well, giving that mode 100% IOTA/POTA certainty.
In addition to the five operators mentioned above, there is an experienced
team of 24 operators from 8 countries operating up to 6 stations around the
clock, ensuring DXers around the globe have ample opportunity to add an ATNO
or band fill to their DXCC totals'.

| 26/08-05/09 | CY9C: St. Paul Island (NA-094) CY9C ---> Planning continues to go well for the DXpedition to St. Paul
Island (NA-094) [425DXN 1700], which is scheduled for 26 August-5 September.
The team (K4ZLE, K9CT, K9NW, N2IEN, N2TU, W0GJ, W0PR, W4DKS, WA4DAN and
WW2DX) will be active on 160-6 metres, including satellite and EME. The main
island is off-limits, and all operations will be from the smaller Northeast
Island. As there are no dock or landing area for a boat, the team plans to
employ two helicopters, one to be deployed before the DXpedition to trans-
port the heavier items to the island. The cost for this DXpedition is very
significant and donations are welcome: see https://t-rexsoftware.com/cy9c/
