9N1AA ---> "Satish is back on the air after a very long time of
inactivity", Carl N4AA (n4aa[@]dxpub.com) reports. "I have agreed to resume
acting as his QSL Manager. I now have his logs for the first few days of
his operation in mid-October 2011. I do not have ALL of his old logs. Many
of those were lost when his computer was confiscated and are no longer
available. If you want me to check for any OLD contacts, email me the data
and I'll look, but it is doubtful that I can confirm many, if ANY, of those
old contacts. SAE with adequate postage is required for direct response".
JOTA ---> CR2AEP, CR2ARQ, CR2ASM, CR2ASS, CR2BSA, CR2JNT, CR3ASA, CR3EPM,

CR5SCD, CR5SJT, CR5SME, CR5SNT, CR5STR, CR5VNT, CR6CNE, CR6DNR, CR6FNA and
CR6JAM were reported active during the 54th Jamboree On The Air (15-16
October). QSL via bureau. [TNX CT1END]
QSL NA-089 ---> AB5EB/p, AD6D/5 and K0AP/5 made over 3700 QSOs with 2600
unique calls during thei recent activity from Grand Island [425DXN 1066].
Each of them will have all the logs: "so if you worked more then one of us
and would like a card for each contact", Mike AB5EB says, "you can send all
the cards to one operator who can answer for all three calls. It does not
matter who you send the card to". [TNX islandchaser.com]
ST0R & LOTW ---> "As you may know, the distribution of ST0R QSL cards has
begun. The Republic of South Sudan was recently added to the DXCC entities
list, so each QSO confirmed by our manager will be the confirmation of a
new one.
Because of this, the DXCC Desk has expressed the concern that they may be
overwhelmed by thousands of applications to credit the new entity.
Consequently, we have decided to make an exception, and upload to the LOTW
all the individual donor QSOs and OQRS ones, by 1st November". [TNX EA5RM]
T32C ---> "The QSO count is currently [on 21 October, Ed.] at 188.75k with
49% CW, 41% SSB and 9% RTTY. As you might guess we are working hard to
exceed 200k.
During the day (local time) we are running a 6m beacon on 50.102.MHz. If you
hear the beacon please put a note on the cluster and we will break the
beacon and try for QSOs. So far we have had 99 six metre QSOs, mainly with
the West coast USA and Hawaii. The beacon has been heard in Japan and South
America. We have also completed a number of 6m EME QSOs.
With just a few days to go to the end of the DXpedition we are beginning to
plan the station close down. There will be a phased shut down beginning at
1600z on Monday 24th October, with the last station closing by 0100z on
Tuesday 25th. We will keep the 'high rate' stations running as long as
possible.
If you look at the on line log and QSOs that were previously in there appear
to be missing, don't despair, query the log a little later, they will be
there".
