         will be in Juba, South Sudan on 14-28 November. They  will  be  QRV

         activate three stations with  amplifiers,  low-band  verticals  and
         beverage antennas. The operation will be generator based,  and  two
         different radio locations may be used. The period includes  the  CQ
         WW DX CW Contest, with some single-band entries  and  low-band  SSB
         focus  during  the  contest  weekend.  The  highest  cost  item  is

         of transportation. The group  welcomes  support  from  individuals,
         clubs  and  foundations  to  offset  some  of  the  high  equipment
         transport expenses. Further information and updates will be  posted
         to www.qrz.com/db/Z81X. QSL via OH0XX.

         make a lot more  contacts  in  the  coming  weeks  and  months.  My
         preferred method of making contacts is to arrange a 'private'  sked

AMSTERDAM 2014 ---> In their latest press release,  dated  21  October,  the
FT5ZM team reported that "a sea container filled with our equipment  is  now
on its way to New Zealand to loaded aboard our  ship,  the  MV  Braveheart",
while other needed items are being procured by "the Braveheart crew and  our
VK6 friends". These "materials will all come together in  January  when  the
Braveheart and the FT5ZM team arrive in Fremantle, Australia".
"We are in the phase of the DXpedition where large expenses  are  coming  at
us rapidly. We are staying within our budgeted expenses,  but  contributions
have been somewhat less than we had hoped. It  now  appears  almost  certain
that the team members will have  to  increase  their  personal  contribution
from $10,000 per person to $12,500 per person as well as pay their  own  way
to and from Fremantle. If you've contributed to  the  DXpedition,  we  thank
you. If you've yet to help us, or if you can send some additional  help  our
way, we can certainly use any financial  support  that  you  can  give  us".
Donations are gratefully accepted at www.amsterdamdx.org  [TNX K0IR]

DXCC NEWS ---> T6JR (Afghanistan, 2013  operation)  has  been  approved  for
DXCC credit. [TNX NC1L]

K9W ---> The K9W DXpedition to Wake Island has been on hold since 1  October
[425DXN 1170]. On  22  October  the  Management  team  announced  that  they
continue  "to  work  with  the  USAF  to  set  rescheduled  dates  for  this
Commemorative DXpedition. Once we have the new dates, we will post  them  on
www.wake2013.org and through the normal Amateur Radio  communication  media.
Thank you for your patience and understanding".

QSL T6TM ---> Buzz, NI5DX is the new QSL manager  for  Tim,  T6TM  or  past,
current and future QSOs. "Tim has  been  in  Afghanistan  since  2011",  The
Daily DX reports, and "his plans call for him to remain  in  T6  land  until
December of 2014".

QSL VIA M0URX ---> With immediate effect, M0URX is the new QSL  manager  for
5B4AHJ and P3J. Other calls (5B50J, 5B/G3PMR, G3PMR and others)  remain  via
