General information.
North Cook, ZK1. JE2DWZ Yoshi, writes; ZK1/North Cook DX-pedition 2000
Yasu/JI1NJC has activated several small entities in the Pacific and
Indian Ocean with his company at least once a year in the past since
1989 (KH0, C2, T30, T2, ZK1/S, 3D2, A35, FW, 8Q7, S79, 3B8 etc.). This
Y2K as a peak of Cycle 23 Yasu will make another DX-citing trip with
Yu/JR2KDN who activated one of rare entities in SE Asia, Lao in 1998.
Of course the target is to work stations in everywhere as many as pos-
sible on ALL BANDS and also SPECIAL attention to 6m will be paid and
various propagations (e.g. Scatter, Skew path, Short path, Long path)
will be tried. Now we are very pleased to announce our upcoming DX-
citing/pedition for all of those who love DXing as follows: Destina-
tion: Penrhyn Island (ZK1/North Cook) Grid Locator: BI11 Call Sign:
ZK1NJC, ZK1NDK (are being requested. The license will be collected
upon arrival.) Date: Oct 28 to Nov 4 2000 Operator: Yu/JR2KDN (also

T20CC, T30CC, ZK1NJC, 8Q7CC, 3D2YI, S79CC, KH0/JI1NJC, FW/JI1NJC etc)
Frequency: 160m - 6m. 6m 50.100 MHz QSX 50.140 MHz and UP 6m Beacon:
BREAKABLE beacon will be run on 50.100 MHz. (6m Beacon: CQ CQ de ZK1NJC
ZK1NJC QSX 50.140 K) If you hear 6m beacon, give your call on 50.140
MHz since we will NOT (again NOT) listen on 50.100 MHz at any time to
prevent QRM. We will show up on usual DX frequencies. Mode: SSB/CW/RTTY
Equipment: 2 x IC-706, TS-50, IC-PW1 (160m- 6m KW Linear Amplifier) 6m:
5 ele Yagi Beam @ 15m up QSL: via JR2KDN (SASE, SAE+sufficient return

Saint Peter and Saint Paul, PY0. Al Archangelo, PY2ZX, writes; Hello
friends, Thanks for all the e-mails. The DXpeditioners of the last
operation for Saint Peter and Saint Paul made one safety return to the
respective QTHs in Sao Paulo State. The station PS0S was unfortunately
for a few time active because power energy problems and the limited
period gives by the Navy for be stayed in the Archipelago, from 5 for
just 2 days, making operational problems specialy in SSB and RTTY
emitions. In this moment we would like to thanks all the friends and
institutions that helped us and, despite the modest results, whe hope
can be work a little in behalf of the DXism. The site will be con-
stantly updated like one support for the friends that are looking for
a bit more about one of the last frontiers of the brasilian territory;
about his old and newest DXpedtions. Our adress: PS0S expediton site

Kiribati W, T30. A very productive 19th Sep 2000 on 50MHz at the T30JH
shack, the following worked in the period 2240-1330z: VK8, VK4, ZL,
KH8, KH6, KH4, FO, 3D2, YJ8, JA, VR2, and P29. Also heard the 4W6UN
beacon for over three hours 519 to 559 report. V73AT also heard weak
on backscatter. 73 de Jack T30JH (RJ-61). Jack D. Haden T30JH

Niger, 5N. Today i have speaking with 5N9EAM and he send me an impor-
tant information. He hope to operate from 5N (Niger) at sunday 24/9 or
1/10 but second is more probable. When he say to be active, the correct
information can be spotting on cluster from his manager IK7JTF. Good
hunting everybody ... Freddy IW1DIM iw1dim@amsat.org (QSP de UKSMG)
French Guiana, FY. I'm looking for a place to stay in FY in late Octo-
ber. Can anyone suggest a place that accomodates amateurs, or maybe
the call of someone who operated from FY this summer? Thanks Arliss

Mozambique, C9. Johan ON4ANT, writes. Sunday 17th september C91RF/P
finally into NW Europe. Having heard him from KG62 on 2 occasions, but
no QSO, I worked him lastm evening around 17.16 utc. He was in for 50
minutes, peaking 579 at times, but very few takers (most of time he
just CQ-ed) Did notice that due to my spot on cluster some started
calling him, but they where doubling with him, so guess they had no or
light copy, Jose EA7KW told me he runs a Halo from portable QTH. The
antennas payed off !, 30 km to the NW of me they had no copy. 73 Johan
For those who dosent know ON4ANT's antennas is four SIX elemet Yagis
in a H, E.d.

04.30 UT. 13.500 QSO completed but impossible to active the 6 meters
band. Apologies from the A52FH operators.
Mayotte, FH. Georges F8OP, writes; F5OGL phoned me this evening: all
the FH/TU5AX documents have been sent to day, (for the second time),
direct to NC1L address in Newington, by registered mail. Didier hopes
the FH/TU5AX QSL's will be now soon accepted by the ARRL DXCC Desk.

The fo F2 values in EU are still way to low to support Es+F2 openings.
They peak at about 10 MHz, where about 12 MHz is required of Es linking
The 14 MHz we need for direct F2 is even further away. Looking back at
the last cycle conditions should improve dramatically in the next 2
weeks. The best times are when the flux is dropping (not plunging) and
with an A-index of about 25. Coming season should be better than last
one (No significant F2-openings), but I'm not too optimistic. With a
collapsing flux I don't believe it'll be better than fall '88 (few F2
openings). Peter, PA16 (QSP de UKSMG)
Montserrat, VP2M. K5AND, K6MYC, and I (W6JKV) will operate from Mont-
serrat (VP2M) from around nov.3 until nov.19. Our focus as always is
50 MHz and 2 meter eme. We will have large antennas and a kw on both
bands. We hope to be on web but that may be unreliable. We have tried
to get good view toward Europe but only arrival will tell.. if no good
will try for second site, as we will have mutilple six meter antennas
and rigs, details will follow. Jimmy, Dick, and Mike. Jimmy W6JKV
