CY0 SABLE ISLAND DXPEDITION NEWS (TARGET IS OCTOBER 2021). From the Sable
Island DXpedition Web page (https://cy0dxpedition.net/index.html):
 As everyone knows, the planned 2020 DXpedition to Sable Island had to
be postponed due to the worldwide Coronavirus. Since that time, we have
been in regular contact with Parks Canada and Sable Aviation.
 There are three issues that we are currently dealing with. These include
the Canadian border being reopened, the province of Nova Scotia allowing
US citizens entry and Parks Canada allowing our team onto Sable Island.
These are all issues completely out of our control.
 We are cautiously optimistic that our planned October DXpedition will
take place at that time. Still some months away, the Coronavirus will
(hopefully) be under control by that time. Time is on our side in this
aspect!
 The Sable Island DXpedition team remains committed and excited about
this opportunity. Planning continues as we receive regular updates. This
is a fluid situation and we will keep everyone updated as we receive
additional information. We would like to thank all of the foundations,
clubs and individuals for their support, understanding and patience.
 We appreciate all of the foundations, clubs and individuals who have
contributed funding for our DXpedition.

PROPAGATION WEBINAR (The Rebirth of HF). A central topic of this pre-
sentation is why much of the rebirth of HF is due to advancements in a
wide range of fields, such as antenna design and digital modulation
schemes, as well as improvements in our understanding of propagation
and how we can adapt to the challenges of propagation at HF. Here is
a link to a 38 minute training video from Rohde and Schwarz on HF
propagation that is exceptionally well done and very understandable.
The title of the Webinar is called "The Rebirth of HF":
