ARRL 10 METER CONTEST ---> Object of the contest is for amateurs around  the
world to work as many stations as possible on  the  10m  band.  This  year's
event will be held on  8-9  December.  Complete  details  can  be  found  at
http://www.arrl.org/10-meter

PT0S ---> "The logs of the last 20 hours of operation  were  uploaded",  the
team reported on 27 November. "Please note that these logs  do  not  contain
corrections. We will deal with the correction requests during the  next  two
weeks and upload a final and corrected log  around  10  December.  (Probably
not so final, as correction requests are  likely  to  be  coming  in  for  a
while.)"

QSL NH8S ---> "Our QSL manager (Joe, AA4NN) has processed all  QSL  requests
from OQRS and direct mail. Envelopes and QSO labels  are  prepared  for  the
QSL cards. The cards were shipped from Italy and we await their arrival.  As
soon as they arrive, all cards will be mailed. LOTW confirmations have  been
uploaded for those that have  donated  more  than  $10  to  the  DXpedition.
Remaining QSOs will be uploaded in  batches  starting  December  1st".  [TNX

QSL OY3JE ---> Tim, M0URX has taken  over  QSL  duties  for  OY3JE.  He  has
already received a parcel from Jan containing 115 letters, which  have  been
processed through the log. QSL cards will be posted once  the  cards  arrive
from the printer very soon.

ZL9HR ---> The  operation  was  originally  scheduled  to  be  QRV  from  28
November. The sailing vessel "Evohe" with the ZL9HR team departed Bluff,  on
the southern coast of New Zealand's South Island, on the  26th  around  noon
local time. However, bad weather forced the team to shelter in  the  lee  of
Stewart Island and wait for conditions to improve. They  expected  to  leave
for Campbell Island on 29 November in the morning  and  hopefully  to  reach
their destination on 1 December. MM0NDX, the EU Pilot station, reports  that
they will not be able to extend their stay on the island beyond 9  December.
