GI     - GB5OMU is the special callsign the Mid-Ulster  Amateur  Radio  Club
         (www.muarc.com) will be using throughout the month of  December  to
         celebrate their 50th anniversary. QSL via MN0VFW.

         Solomon Islands until 16 February 2016.  Tom  will  operate  mainly

         go and be QRV from "three of the  outer  islands".  QSL  H44TM  via

KH5    - There has been a change of plans  due  to  unforeseen  events,  and
         only nine operators out of the twelve  announced  will  participate
         in the K5P DXpedition to Palmyra [425DXN 1275].  "The  air  charter
         is provided by our host, The Nature  Conservancy",  the  organizers
         explain. "Earlier this year, the air strip was decertified  and  as
         a result the aircraft type had to be changed  to  allow  access  to
         the Palmyra. The aircraft selected will only seat 9 persons,  which
         is a major change of plans for the  DXpedition.  Several  alternate
         options were examined but were  unsuccessful.  It  was  with  great
         pain that three of the operators stepped  back  from  the  Team  to
         allow the DXpedition to proceed". The Team plans o n leaving Hawaii
         for  Palmyra  on  11 January, and being active from 12  through  25
         January. Bookmark  the  K5P  web site (http://palmyra2016.org/) for
