style) with callers after the phone patch business is over. There
are apparently no telephone lines on the island and the local
inhabitants cannot afford to use satellite phones". At present

CLIPPERTON 2012 CANCELLED ---> The 10-15 March TX5Q operation from
Clipperton Island [425DXN 1072) has been cancelled, "due to unforseen

project, please contact KK6EK at cordell.org".

operating, QSLing and much more. You will also get the DXpeditioner's view
of how DXers should operate to get into the log. Over half of the limited

three weeks ago. Complete information can be found at www.dxuniversity.com

LOTW & CQ AWARDS ---> The ARRL and CQ Communications,Inc. have signed an

beginning with the CQ WPX award. Additional CQ awards will follow. The
target date for beginning LoTW support for WPX is 1 April 2012. Amateurs
will be able to use LoTW logs to generate lists of confirmed contacts to be
submitted for WPX credit. Standard LoTW credit fees and CQ award fees will
apply.
