Thanks to the Northern Ohio Amateur Radio Society, Northern Ohio DX
Association, Ohio/Penn PacketCluster Network, AB5K & the AR TelNet
Clusters Network, N3QQ, K8YSE, and CX3ZAN for the following DX information.
IOTA SA-057 (Update). Just a reminder that members of the Uruguay DX Group
and Centro Radioaficionados Montevideo will be active as CW3TD from Timoteo
Dominguez Island between December 2-6th. Activity will be on 160-2 meters
with an emphasis on the Digital modes. They plan to have 15 operators and
four stations on the air. Carlos, SM0KCO, is the newest operator to join
the team of Jorge/CX1SI, Gustavo/CX2AM, Jose/CX2AN, Oscar/CX2FR, Wilson/
CX2RU, Francisco/CX3BV, Gustavo/CX3CE, Humberto/CX3AN, Luis/CX4AAJ,
Julio/CX4AAE, Mario/CX4CR and Rainer/CX8FB. QSL via David, EB7DX.
IOTA OC-171 (Update). Craig/VK4LDX will be active as VK4LDX/p from Magnetic
Island between December 10-12th. He states, "The focus will be SSB, I don't
do CW, but I may do some RTTY and PSK31 if I'm not getting through on SSB.
I'll be using a 40m dipole favoring North America, full size aluminium
vertical dipole for 15m and the HF9V multiband vertical for 10, 15, 20
and 40m. So there's no need to worry about beam headings, it's all up to
band choice and propagation." The operating schedule for his operation
is now published on his Blog page at: http://vk4ldxoc171.blogspot.com
QSL via his home callsign, by the Bureau or direct to: Craig Edwards,
PO Box 487, Belgian Gardens, Queensland 4810, Australia. Diect QSLs,
please send a SAE with 2 USDs or an IRC (VK operators - just send a
SASE). He does not do eQSL or LoTW.

Robinson Club members Tim Tilleman/NL8F (V73CF) and Yuri Sushkin/N3QQ
