ROUTE 66 ON THE AIR ---> Organized by the Citrus Belt ARC, the 16th annual
Route 66 On The Air special event celebrates the historic US Highway 66.
Twenty-one amateur radio stations using 1x1 callsigns (from W6A through

See www.w6jbt.org for information about the event and each participating
station's QSL route.
RUSSIAN ARCTIC COAST EXPEDITION ---> Vlad, UA4WHX is continuing his voyage
on the MSV Mikhail Somov along the Arctic Northern Sea Route [425DXN 1271].
So far callsigns that were, are being and could be used include:
- R00BVB (from coastal areas in the Dolgano-Nenetsky District)
- R00QVB (from coastal areas in the Republic of Sakha, Yakutia)
- R11PVB (from coastal areas in the the Nenets Autonomous Okrug)
- RI0BV (on 7 September from AS-005)
- RI0BV/0 (on 9 September from AS-121)

- RI0QV/p (on 18 September from AS-029)
- RI1OV (from "various islands in the White and Barents Sea")
- RI1PV (on 31 August from EU-085)
Go to http://194.190.129.43/ships/index.html and follow the ship's course.
QSL for all callsigns via UA4WHX, see qrz.com for instructions. Updates
will appear under each callsign on qrz.com and on DX-World.net.
TQSL 2.1.1 ---> A new release of TQSL (the application used to digitally
sign and upload QSOs to LoTW, and to manage the Callsign Certificates) is
now available. TQSL 2.1.1 has corrections for several defects that were
found in TQSL 2.0 as well as enhancements to improve usability. On all
three supported platforms (Windows, MacOS and Linux), installing TQSL 2.1.1
will replace older versions of Trusted QSL while preserving your Callsign
Certificates, Station Locations, and preferences. Complete release notes
can be found at http://www.rickmurphy.net/lotw/. TQSL 2.1.1 will be offered
upon startup of TQSL, or if you use the "Check for Updates" feature. It can
also be downloaded from http://www.arrl.org/tqsl-download. [TNX K1MU]
VP8SGI & VP8STI ---> When the voyage starts, it will be possible to follow
the progress in real time on a map on the DXpedition's website
(www.intrepid-dx.com/vp8). The team will depart the Falkland Islands on 9
January; after undergoing a safety and biodiversity briefing at King Edward
Point (South Georgia), they expect to arrive at Southern Thule (South
Sandwich Islands) on 17 January, depending on weather and sea conditions.
They plan to be active as VP8STI for ten days; then they will voyage back
to South Georgia and be active as VP8SGI starting on or around 1 February
again for ten days. "Our main priority is to make a great impact to the
need for South Sandwich contacts", they say, "and we will sacrifice our
time at South Georgia to ensure that we make that impact". Finally, the
team will return to the Falklands on 14 February, and be QRV as VP8IDX
until the 20th.
Donations are still gratefully accepted, and all donors of $25 or more will
receive an early LoTW upload. The organizers are "seeking more support from
the many DX Clubs of North America, Canada, Mexico, South America, Europe
and Asia that have yet to make a donation. We encourage you to visit our
website and donate via the PayPal link". [TNX N6PSE]
