BOUVET 2018 ---> The Bouvet Island DXpedition team reported that their
"longstanding landing permit (2007) has been updated and revised to conform
to current environmental protection regulations, planned landing and
helicopter operations, base camp set-up, dates of operation, and operating
plans. The updated document has received signatorial approval of the Norsk
Polar Institute". The amateur radio license with the call sign 3Y0Z "has
also been renewed and will be used during the Bouvet DXpedition 2018".
An international team of pilots has been selected to serve as an interface
between the DXpedition team and the DX audience worldwide: NV9L (Chief
Pilot), HK3W (South America Pilot), JA1WSX (Asia-Oceania Pilot), K2SG (North
America Pilot), ON9CFG (European Pilot), ZS2I (Africa Pilot).
"This Dxpedition is an expensive project with team members bearing 50% of
its total cost. Your financial support is encouraged and welcomed to help us
make this happen. Please see our list of donors and sponsors and learn how
you can help on our website (www.bouvetdx.org)". [TNX K0IR]
T30COW ---> Tom, KC0W started his operation as T30COW from Western Kiribati
on 25 September. On the 28th, his equipment and personal belongings were
stolen: "they took all my radios, computers, amplifiers, antennas, coax,
everything", he said. "They even took my clothing & shoes". He has now
cancelled "all future DXing activity until I return back to the USA and
purchase new equipment". Tom's "Cows Over the World DXpedition" included
activity as KH8/KC0W, 5W0COW, T2COW, YJ0COW and T30COW. See Tom's bio page
