A3     - Takio, JH3QFL will be active as A31AA  from Nuku'alofa on Tongatapu
         Island (OC-049), Tonga  on 13-22 May.  He will operate FT8  on 80-6
         metres. QSL via LoTW, or direct to JH3QFL. [TNX DX World]
C5     - Look for C5B [425DXN 1823] to be active from the Bijol Islands (AF-
         060) on 3 May, from 09:30 UTC to 14:00 UTC.  Plans are to be on the
         RS44 satellite and on the HF bands, possibly focusing on 17 metres.
         [TNX The Daily DX]
CE0Z   - Felipe, XQ7IR, will be active as  3G0Z  from Robinson Crusoe Island
         (SA-005),  Juan Fernandez  for  "approximately three weeks" in  May
         [425DXN 1821].  A side trip to  IOTA Group SA-101 is being planned:
         "there is now a very strong possibility of carrying out a short but
         highly valuable  operation from  Alejandro Selkirk Island,  with an
         estimated  on-air window  of approximately 24 to 36 hours",  Felipe
         says.
         "This activation  will depend entirely on the final logistics costs
         involved in  moving part of  my radio equipment  to the island,  as
         well as securing enough gasoline to keep the generator running dur-
         ing the operation. Should this operation take place, it will be un-
         der the callsign XR0Z, which has already been requested  and  offi-
         cially authorized by SUBTEL.  At this moment,  everything is  under
         evaluation and the project remains open,  but the chances  are real
         and increasing".  Bookmark  https://www.robinsoncrusoe2026.net  for
         updates. The first and so far only operation from SA-101 took place
         in February 2020 (CB0Z, operated by IT9YRE and K9AJ).
DL     - DR170TESLA is the  special callsign  for members of DARC's Ortsver-
         band Mainz (DL0MZ) to celebrate the 170th anniversary  of the birth
         of Nikola Tesla between  1 May and 31 December.  QSL via Club Log's
         OQRS (preferred), or via DK8ZZ.
E5/S   - Tom, K7TLM and Leslie, KD7YZE will be active as  E51TLM  from Raro-
         tonga (OC-013),  South Cook Islands  on 4-9 May.  They will operate
         QRP on 28385 kHz (SSB)  and 28060 kHz (slow CW)  between  19:00 and
         01:00 UTC. QSL via K7TLM, direct or bureau.
EI     - Look for Pete M1PTR  and Kieron M5KJM (EI6KP)  to be QRV as EJ6KP/p
         from Arranmore Island (EU-121) on 21-23 May. They will operate  SSB
         on 40, 20  and 15 metres  during the local  daytime hours.  QSL via
         Club Log's OQRS, LoTW, or via M5KJM (direct or bureau).
I      - Commemorating the centenary of the Amundsen-Ellsworth-Nobile Trans-
         polar Flight, members of  ARI Colli Albani  will operate under  the
         special  callsign  II0NRG  between  12 May and 31 July.  The suffix
         stands for  "Norge",  the Italian-built airship  that  achieved the
         first verified journey to the North Pole (11-14 May 1926)  and com-
         pleted the first flight  across the polar ice  cap  from Europe  to
         America.  QSL via I0KNQ.  A certificate will be available,  details
         will be published on QRZ.
JA     - Take, JI3DST  and  Ken, JA4GXS  will  be  active  as  JI3DST/6  and
         JA4GXS/6 from the  Danjo Islands (AS-056)  between 08:00 UTC on  15
         May and 22:00 UTC on 16 May, with 22-23 May as backup dates in case
         of bad weather.  As the islands are uninhabited  and lack a regular
         ferry service,  AS-056  is currently  the second  most wanted  IOTA
         group in Japan.  They plan to operate  SSB, CW, FT8 and FT4 on  40,
         30, 20, 17 and 6 metres, running battery power to a wire dipole for
         HF, and a 2-element delta loop for 6m. Suggested frequencies are:
         7055, 7120, 14260, 18128, 50120 (SSB)
         7025, 10115, 14040, 18098, 50120 (CW)
         7074, 10136, 14074, 18100, 50313 (FT8)
         7070, 10130, 14090, 18090, 50313 (FT8 MSHV)
         7047. 5, 10140, 14080, 18104, 50318 (FT4)
         The QSL routes will be announced at a later date.
LZ     - The foundations of Bulgaria's organized amateur radio movement were
         laid in 1926, w hen 38 enthusiasts established the  Bulgarian Radio
         Club - a predecessor to today's  Bulgarian Federation of Radio Ama-
         teurs (BFRA).  Celebrating this centenary, members of the BFRA will
         be active as  LZ100LZ  on 160-10 metres  CW, SSB and  digital modes
         between 1 and 31 May. See https://lzprint.eu/lz100lz-award/ for the
         certificates.
TF     - Rikk, WE9G will be active as TF/WE9G from Borg, Iceland (EU-021) on
         10-19 May.  He will operate FT modes with some limited SSB on CW on
         various bands.  QSL via Club Log's OQRS,  LoTW and QRZ, or via home
         call (direct and bureau).
XT     - Harald, DF2WO  will be active  again  as  XT2AW  from  Ouagadougou,
         Burkina Faso on 6-19 May.  He will operate CW, SSB and FT modes  on

3Y0K ---> All QSOs for  all donors and  for those who requested a direct QSL
via OQRS through 25 April  have been uploaded to LoTW.  Further uploads will
continue every two weeks. Any LoTW enquiries should be sent to busted@3y0.no

QSL 9M2/KM9D ---> Thanks to Steve, OM3JW,  Club Log's OQRS  has been enabled
for Mike's activity from Rebak Island (AS-058).

QSL NOT VIA DL5EBE ---> Ric, DL2VFR reminds everyone that  since 1 July 2025
the QSL route for  DP0GVN and DP0POL has been via DL4BBH only.  Also, ZS1ANF
and ZS7ANF are  via RK1PWA only.  "A lot of these cards are  still addressed
via DL5EBE for some reason", he says.  "This means that it takes a very long
time to forward them again".
