Ducie Island., VP6. should be the next new Entity to be added to the
DXCC List. The Pitcairn Island Amateur Radio Association (PIARA) has
applied to the IARU for membership and the closing date for voting is
15 November. If PIARA becomes a member society of the IARU, Pitcairn
will become a DXCC "Political Entity" and consequently Ducie Island,
which is separated from its "Parent" (Pitcairn itself) by 350+ kilo-
metres, will became a DXCC "Geographic Separation Entity". PIARA has
now announced that plans are complete for their expedition to Ducie
Island. VP6TC, VP6DB, VP6BK/JA1BK, JF1IST, JA1SLS, K9AJ, K5VT and
