** IMPORTANT NOTE FROM EDITOR (By KB8NW): Over the next 3 weeks, there
   will either be no bulletin or an abbreviated bulletin because I will
   be traveling on holiday. There will not be an OPDX Bulletin next week
   as I will be attending the Day-Xenia HamVention. The following weeks,
   I will be in either Murfreesboro, TN, or Panama City Beach, FL. As
   always, "IF" I receive a major announcement, I will probably send out
   a special bulletin. However, PLEASE continue to send your DX infor-
   mation. You never know what I might do....
   I hope to see you at the Day-Xenia HamVention or the NODXA Hospitality
   Suite!....  73 de Tedd KB8NW

now in Fiji with Dom/3D2USU. 3D2SP has been on 30/10 meters FT8, while
3D2EZ has been on 20/17/12 meters CW. This is part of the team getting

activity will "probably" be on 80-10 meters, using CW, SSB, Digital modes
(PSK31 and FT8) and possibly the Satellites. QSL via LU1FM.

8N650, JAPAN (Special Event). To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the
"Reversion of OKINAWA to JAPAN", special event station 8N650JP is now
active until September 30th. QSL via Bureau.

9M22, WEST MALAYSIA. Look for  special event callsign 9M22DX to be active
from West Malaysia between June 1-30th. Activity is to promote Summits
on the Air (SOTA) and DX. Operator Hilmi/9M2CDX, Afiq/9M2KDX, Wan/9W2EYR,
Jalee/9W2VGR, Herry/9W2HXP, Mohd/9W2KVW, Mohd/9M2JDX, Khairil/9W2WPZ,

June 6-30th as Malaysia DX 2022 station. QSL 9M22DX via 9M2CDX direct or
ClubLog.

9N, NEPAL. Robert, S53R/9N7AA, posted the following, May 14th, on QRZ.com:
[edited] "QRM continues to be prohibitive for any normal CW/SSB on 20m
inclusive and below, where even FT8 struggles with signals heavily plagued
by the local interference/QRM. Higher bands are surprisingly good and 6m
started showing some life. For the time being, only Asia and the Western
part of the Pacific have been heard/worked. Most of the activity is on CW
and occasionally some SSB, but I've started doing some RTTY again, which
is great fun and requires operator skills and interaction, as opposed to
utterly boring and unchallenging, yet I must admit very useful FT8/FT4
modes. The license has been renewed and extended until May 2023. Please
note that 60m band is not permitted in Nepal. QSL via S57DX, direct only,
and of course, LoTW and ClubLog will be updated at least once a week.
Please use s57dx@yahoo.com for PayPal requests and will try to set up
the OQRS soon. Last but not least - NO Flags, QRZ.COM log, eQSL, etc.."

C5, THE GAMBIA (Reminder). Operators Gérard/F5NVF, Abdel/M0NPT (7X2TT)
and Luc/F5RAV will once again be active as C5C from Kololi (WW Loc. IK13PK),
The Gambia, between May 23rd and June 10th. The team also hopes to be
active again from Bijol Island (AF-060) as C5B. Activity will be on
80-6 meters, including 60m, using CW, SSB, FT8/FT4 and the QO-100 satel-
lite. QSL via F5RAV, direct, eQSL or LoTW. The trio has also included
a "Go Fund Me" page (https://gofund.me/6ad9d75d) for their operation
which was started by Zorro, JH1AJT/SK, to help improvements, living con-
ditions and the local village school. See the Web page to see more details.

CY0S SABLE ISLAND DXPEDITION NEWS (Press Release, dated May 13th). [edited]
"As announced previously, the 2022 Sable Island CY0S DXpedition has been
formally approved for this October/November. As soon as the exact dates
are determined by Parks Canada, we will release them to the DX community.
Parks Canada is extremely busy with maintenance projects which have pri-
ority. Environment Canada completely automated their Sable weather station
in 2019 so they no longer have personnel on the island. As planning con-
tinues, the CY0S team faces significant costs. This is by far the most
expensive CY0 DXpedition ever. The budget for this DXpedition is 65,000
USDs. The team will charter the Sable Aviation fixed wing aircraft as
well as the Vision Air Sikorsky SK-76 helicopter. The team will require
two round trip flights with Sable Aviation and two round trip flights
with Vision Air. These charters are at a very significant cost. Addition-
ally, Parks Canada charges for the use of the Visitor Quarters next to
the Sable Station. The team members have committed to paying a minimum
of 50% of the cost of the DXpedition. Currently, our fund raising is just
starting to ramp up. We encourage DX'ers worldwide who need Sable Island
to support our efforts. It's been a long six years with trying to make
this DXpedition a reality. The team has had to overcome many obstacles.
Donations can be made directly from our website. Thanks in advance!"

    Vention takes place on May 20-22nd. Please visit the 3Y0J Bouvet
    DXpedition team booth# 1508, next to our Premium Sponsor DX Engi-
    neering! On Sunday, at 10:30AM in the Forums Room # 4, there will

  * (Reminder) DAY-XENIA HAMVENTION DX HOSPITALITY SUITE. The Northern
    Ohio DX Association will once again sponsor a Hospitality Suite (24th
    year) at this year's Day-Xenia HamVention. It will be in Suite 1011 on
    the 10th floor of the Radisson Hotel Dayton Convention Center (formally
    known as the Crowne Plaza Hotel) on Thursday, Friday and Saturday
    evenings (Look for signs!). All DXers/Contesters are welcome. Munchies
    and refreshments will be available. Come and meet the members and
    friends of NODXA.

EUDXF NEWS. The European DX Foundation (EUDXF) reports on May 11th:
4U1ITU back on the air (By PB2T).... You may have worked 4U1ITU recently
or you may have seen some 4U1ITU cluster spots. The operation is real
and the station will be on the air until 3 June. After a two year lock
down, the ITU building in Geneva is back in business. Currently a series
of meetings of Study Group 4 (satellites) and 5 (terrestrial and amateur)
Working Parties takes place.
  The two year lockdown has not been good for equipment and antennas.
Lots of technical issues had/have to be solved. As it looks now (but we
have to wait and see) 4U1ITU can operate on WARC bands with dipole fixed
NW/SE and use the STEPP-IR on 40/20/15/10. A second radio is now being
set up for 6 meters including FT8.
  This activity will most likely be the last one before the reconstruction
of the ITU building starting by the end of the year. The shack will be
closed soon for several years. It is recommended to fill empty bandslots
now.
       -----------------------------------------------------------

  ** Thanks to the individuals who put the island/group and mode
     (which is very important) on their QSNs on their PacketCluster

           every year in June as K4D, will be active this year between
           May 16th and 26th. Dog Island (USI FL005S, WW Loc.EL79), Florida,
           is an extremely rare IOTA because access is controlled by the
           25 or so homeowners on the island. There are no hams on the
           island, and the only activations have been done by Bruce over
           the last 9 years. Access is by permission only and permission
           by one of the homeowners. It is only accessible by private
           charter or single engine fixed wing aircraft and by charter
           boat. The airstrip is overgrown so private charter is the only
           real choice. There are no streets, roads, stop signs, trendy
           cafes, or beach-front bars. If you need it, you bring it. This
           year's activity will only be on 40-6 meters primarily on CW,
           SSB, FM, using 100 watts an ICOM 7100 into an off center fed
           dipole. Suggested frequencies are:
             CW  - 7027.5, 7110, 10110, 14027.5, 21027.5 and 28010 kHz
             SSB - 7185, 14260, 21285 and 28310 kHz
           QSL via K5TEN, SASE REQUIRED for stateside and DX (DX 1 USDs
           REQUIRED). Also, QSL via the Bureau or eQSL (Is Best). See
           QRZ.com or May QST for more details.
