** EDITOR'S SPECIAL NOTICE: This week's bulletin was sent out earlier
   than normal to accommodate the late CQWW WPX CW Contest announcements.
   Also, we wanted to provide the readers with a consolidated listing
   of the CQWW WPX CW Contest participants.

** SPECIAL NOTE FROM EDITOR (Short Dayton HamVention Wrap-Up By KB8NW):
   The Dayton HamVention had a great turnout, but was hampered by bad
   weather this year. Between the rain and hail, the walk through the
   flea market was not enjoyable. It seemed that this year there were
   more vendors in the indoor arena and convention rooms. As always
   it was still great to see the many DXers from all over the world.
   The main thing about Dayton is the special camaraderie I enjoy as
   well as visiting and talking to the DXers/Contesters of the world. =

   The NODXA Hospitality Suite was a great place to share this camaraderie
   with well-known DXers.
     Anyway, I did miss the DX Dinner Banquet because of my duties to
   help run the NODXA suite with our hostess Janeen Hire (W8ZET).
   We did hear, however, that the FT5ZM Amsterdam Island operation did
   receivw the "SWODXA (SouthWest Ohio DX Association) DXpedition of
   the Year for 2014". Also, the CQ magazine announced during the banquet
   its 2014 Hall of Fame inductees, adding two members each to the CQ DX
   and Contest Halls of Fame, as well as eight new members to the CQ
   Amateur Radio Hall of Fame. See OPDX.1163 for details.

   This year's DX Forum included some great talks on and by:
     * T33A Banaba Island - Speaker Jay Garlitz, AA4FL
     * VU7AG Lakshadweep Island - Speaker Krish Kanakasapapathi, W4VKU
     * FT5ZM Amsterdam Island - Speaker Ralph Fedor, K0IR
     * K9W Wake Island - Speaker John Miller, K6MM
   Other than the weather, the 2014 Dayton HamVention in all was a great
   time and experience.

BEST COMMUNICATION AWARD (By DxCoffee & DXUniversity). PRESS RELEASE
[edited]: TX5K gets the 2013 Best Communication Award -- Our award goes
to TX5K, the Dxpedition to Clipperton Island, for the large amount of
information given before, during and after the operation on the official
website <www.tx5k.org> and the related blog <http://ky6r.com>. =

  The information provided is extremely complete and range on several
matters: from the documents describing the project =

<http://cordell.org/CI/CI_pages/CI_Documents.html>, the equipment, the
pilots, the photo gallery. In particular, the very detailed information
that had been reported on the blog, let the readers experience every
facet of the Dxpedition: from navigation to landing, from the environmental
issues to the radio related questions, such as propagation conditions,
operating methods for QSO's, operators shifts, etc., and everything has
been combined by several photos and videos. Congratulations to the team
leader Robert Schmieder, KK6EK and the =93Social Media=94 supervisor, Rich
Holoch, KY6R for constantly keeping  the Dxers=92 community informed with
press releases.
  Many other Dxpeditions have made a very good job as far as communication
is concerned and they deserve some acknowledgement. We had to limit our-
selves to three "special mentions", even though many other Dxpeditions
would have deserved to be appointed. The choice was not easy, but our
preference goes to:
                   IA0MZ =96 Antartica - ia0mz.antartica
                   5W0M =96 Western Samoa - 5w0m.hkmann.de
                   VK9CZ - Cocos Keeling Islands - www.vk9cz.com

  Special thanks to DX University for their support in realizing this Award.

SILENT KEY. James H. Abercrombie, Jr., N4JA (ex-K4BMS), became a Silent
Key on May 14th, after a fall off his tower killed him instantly. He was
from South Carolina. He was 76. Jim was a noted DXer and was on "The Top =

of The Honor Roll." OPDX and its readers send out our deepest sympathy to
the family and friends of N4JA.
