Thanks to the Northern Ohio Amateur Radio Society, Northern Ohio DX Association, Ohio/Penn PacketCluster Network, Don/N1DG, Bill/K6GNX and Rod/WC7N for the following special DX information.

KINGMAN REEF/PALMYRA UPDATE
The team has arrived safely on Christmas Island and is awaiting the arrival of the Machias, which is behind schedule. The KRPDXG team was hoping that it would arrive today. Meanwhile, the team received the license T32R and will be handing out QSOs for T32 until the ship arrives. Look for them on 40/20/15 meter. When they leave Christmas Island they will head to Palmyra to pick up Mike, KH6ND, before heading to Kingman Reef. Their estimated activity is expect around the 20th of October.

4W/K7BV AND 4W/N6FF UPDATE
First a correction. Rod, WC7N, states that there were ONLY two operators active, not three as mentioned in the past few bulletins. Rod, WC7N, also mentions that all the logs have been updated and posted to the Web page:

If you are missing from the file, send him your callsign and your log info and he will do a search for you. His E-mail address is: wc7n@wave.net

Remember, KU9C is the QSL Manager and he requests a SASE or equivalent for a direct response. All others will be returned via the bureau. E-mail QSL requests go to: ku9c@ku9c.com (they will be returned via the bureau) Donations are gratefully accepted by the manager and all donations will be used to help with the cost of the DXpedition. Rod states, "Again guys and gals, if you have the chance to QSL to 4W6MM, thank him for the support this dxpedition received. He was instrumental in making it all work."
