DXCC (At Dayton Hamvention 2013)
Bill Moore, NC1L, reports [edited],

"The 2013 Dayton Hamvention is rapidly approaching and once again ARRL Awards staff will be on hand to check applications not only for DXCC, but all ARRL awards: DXCC, WAS, VUCC, WAC and Extra Class Certificate.

While we will be there all weekend we suggest that you not wait until Sunday to have your application checked."

FT5Z, AMSTERDAM ISLAND (Tentative Schedule for FT5ZM)
Stan, SQ8X, posted the following on the FT5XM Web page

"The MV Braveheart will arrive in the port of Fremantle, Australia, on January 12, 2014, and be available for the team to board. Fuel and supplies will be taken aboard and port documentation procedures completed. The vessel will sail for Amsterdam Island on January 15, 2014. The sailing time to Amsterdam Island will be 9 days with an estimated arrival date of January 24th.

Landing operations will commence as soon as the sea conditions and weather allow. Once the team is ashore, they will have 18 days to set up, conduct the DXpedition, and tear down for departure.

The return sail to Fremantle is also estimated at 9 days. The team anticipates being back in Fremantle by February 23, 2014."

Approximately 2,800 merchant ships were lost during this battle and 30,000 merchant seamen lost their lives. Similarly, 30,000 Allied Naval and Air Force personnel and 30,000 Kriegsmarine sailors also lost their lives. These numbers vary according to whose history of WW2 you read, and the above numbers are a rough average.

Operations will take place on all band 80-10 meters, as well as VHF/UHF operations on 144 and 432 MHz on all modes. This event is especially important to Liverpool and other Merseyside hams because the battle was commanded from the Western Approaches command and is now a premiere WW II museum in Liverpool. Operators are hoping to make over 2800 contacts during this period. A special QSL card is being produced in commemoration. More details can be found on (QRZ.com) as well as:

INTREPID-SPIRIT AWARD (Press Release)
"IDXC 2013, Visalia, California -
April 20th, 2013 - Tonight, the Intrepid-DX Group is very proud to present our 'Intrepid Spirit Award' to a notable DXer and DXpeditioner that we have come to respect and admire greatly, Mr. Silvano Borsa-I2YSB. This award is to recognize Silvano’s outstanding efforts to activate Somalia on three different activations, as well as Chad and most recently Burkina Faso.

We acknowledge Silvano’s pursuit of Dxpedition excellence and his quest to activate the rare and often dangerous entities. It is for these reasons that we honor him tonight with our Intrepid Spirit Award.

This 'Intrepid-Spirit Award' is made in memory of our fallen friend and member, James McLaughlin, T6AF who was killed in Kabul, Afghanistan just two years ago this month.

Thank you,
Paul S. Ewing

P5, NORTH KOREA PRESS RELEASE (Announcing the P5 Project - IDXC 2013 Convention in Visalia, April 20th, 2013), received from Paul, N6PSE:

"P5, North Korea is the most wanted DXCC entity world-wide. Today, the Intrepid-DX Group, in partnership with the World-Wide DX Group, is announcing our sustained and ongoing effort to activate North Korea.

For the past four years, we have been working with professionals in the business and tourism industries who are actively doing business in North Korea. We are leveraging their ideas and contacts towards our goal of a major Dxpedition over a four week period from within the DPRK. We are using the same techniques that were successful in opening up Kurdistan (Northern Iraq) South Sudan and Yemen to Dxpedition activity.

We have prepared a comprehensive, multi-faceted proposal, and we have delivered it to the DPRK officials via our Chinese emissary. Several members of our leadership and advisory team have made multiple visits to the DPRK and are advising us accordingly. We are making further plans to visit the DPRK in the coming months to further bolster our business contacts and to research and assess various venues.

We expect this ongoing project to require a sustained effort. We are committed to work as hard and as long as it takes to activate this rare and much needed entity. We will continue negotiating and flying into and out of the DPRK as needed during this process to lay the groundwork and to build the trust to ensure that a favorable outcome can be created. We want the DX community to be aware and to understand that a sustained effort is being made to activate this rare and important entity.

Thank you,
N6PSE AH6HY YT1AD K3LP -- The Intrepid-DX Group"

VU7, LACCADIVES ISLANDS (Lakshadweep Islands)
Krish, W4VKU/VU2VKU, reports on QRZ.com:

"Received permission from the Ministry of Communications, Govt of India to operate Amateur radio from Kavaratti, Laccadive Islands from Apr 23 to May 5th, 2013. The VU7 permission arrived a bit too late and plans are already firm to activate 8Q7KP from April 23rd to April 30th.

Unfortunately, getting to the VU7 island has become a challenge due to the non availabilty of seats via the overnight ship. There is just one expensive alternative, and I am looking into the logistics involved.

The plan is for SSB and some RTTY on 10-80m with a TS-480Sat and TenTec Hercules 2 amp using a Butternut HF9V and a 2ele steppir yagi + 30/40m trombone. Basically the same equipment in use at 8Q7KP.

Hope to monitor the cluster and possibly with realtime logging via Clublogs and the last 10 QSO's displayed right here on (QRZ.com).

Keeping fingers crossed and hope we will be able to work through all the logistic hoops to activate VU7KV..... 73s de Krish, W4VKU, VU2VKU"
