C2 - Nauru - 19.03.23

Phill, FK1TS will be on Nauru (OC-031) for six days (18-24 March), and plans to be QRV as C21TS: in the "worst case scenario, I might pop up on 6m and 10m only with a mobile whip", he says, but he hopes to be able to "string up some wire". He will operate FT8 only, using MSHV on secondaries in multi stream mode. QSL via LoTW. He might be moving to Nauru for an extended period, sometime after June this year. See https://www.qrz.com/db/C21TS for updates.


CY0 - Sable Is- 19.03.23

A group of operators will be QRV as CY0S from March 20 to 30. Activity will be on 160 to 6 meters, including 60 meters and 2 meter EME, using CW, SSB, RTTY, and FT8 with three stations active. QSL via WA4DAN.


FG - Guadaloupe - 19.03.23

Jean-Luc, F1ULQ will be active as TO1Q from Guadeloupe (NA-102) starting on 20 March for a couple of weeks. He will operate SSB and FT8 on 80-6m, and will participate in the CQ WW WPX SSB Contest. QSL via LoTW, Club Log's OQRS or via F1ULQ.

FO/A - Austral Is. - 19.03.23

Haru, JA1XGI will be active as TX5XG from Raivavae (OC-114), Austral Islands on 12-19 April. He will operate CW, SSB, RTTY, "FT8 F/H or MSHV" and FT4 on 40-6 metres. All QSOs will be confirmed automatically via the bureau and LoTW; otherwise QSL via Club Log's OQRS or direct to JA1XGI. See https://australvacation.amebaownd.com for more information.

T30 - West Kiribati - 19.03.23

Soon the Rebel DX Group (including Kam, T30/T33KC, who is already setting up antennas) will be active as T30UN from North Tarawa, West Kiribati (OC-017) for about five weeks. Plans are to be QRV on 160-6 metres with two CW operators, one SSB operator and seven FT8 stations. Note that it will be quite possible to see two FT8 stations on the same band at the same time on two frequencies (one operating on the standard frequency, and the other operating F/H on a different frequency - e.g. 14074 and 14090). QSL exclusively via Club Log's OQRS. See https://www.facebook.com/rebeldxgroup for updates.


VP5 - Turks and Caicos - 19.03.23

John AF3K, Ross, W2TT and Diane, KA3FCE will be QRV as VP5/AF3K, VP5/W2TT, and VP5/KA3FCE, respectively, from Providenciales, IOTA NA-002, from March 22 to 29.
Activity will be on the HF bands using CW, SSB, and various digital modes. They will be active as VP5P in the upcoming CQ World Wide WPX SSB contest. QSL VP5/AF3K, VP5/W2TT, and VP5P via N2OO, and VP5/KA3FCE direct via W2TT.


XE - Mexico - 19.03.23

4B0T is a special callsign to be used until the end of June 2023 for exploring automated operation with the WSJT-Z software. To avoid crowded bands, the bot will be active mostly on 10m (FT4) and 6m (FT8).
