3B7A ST. BRANDON ISLAND DXPEDITION NEWS. The 3B7A team is now on the air
until April 17th. Last heard they had four stations on the air. Look for
activity to be on 160-10 meters using CW, SSB and RTTY. Suggested fre-
quencies were listed in OPDX.1355. QSL via F5CWU (direct or by the Bureau),
ClubLog's OQRS or LoTW. For more information, see:
http://www.saintbrandondx.com
Support them from their Web site: http://www.saintbrandondx.com/how-to-help-us

The latest update (April 7th) as reported on their Web page states[edited]:
"The South island exceeds so little of the horizon that it is necessary
to wait for the last moment to discover how beautiful it is when the boat
approaches it finally. It was mid-afternoon yesterday, so we finally
reached Flo, F5CWU, and Pasal, F5PTM, arrived earlier with the first
boat trip. After a 26 hours boat ride, we were also very happy to have
a meal before continuing immediately. Our two friends of the 'pre-team'
had already set up all the VDAs and the 30m Four Square. We took ad-
vantage of the last hours before the night to install the 40m Four
Square. We also hoped to complete the installation of the 160m antenna
to start during the first night, but the wind decided otherwise. At the
end we installed the stations during the night and began operating just
after. Despite the fatigue of the first day, the operators took their
turns all night long and more than 3000 qso were in the log early in
the morning.
For this new day, the installations of the remaining antennas were
resumed, while maintaining a maximum of active stations. The setup is
now complete for both transmission and reception. The rythm will now be
fully reached.
Regarding the island, it reminds us Tromelin and Juan de Nova very
much, both in terms of fauna and flora. Based on these previous ex-
periences, we have been able to avoid disturbances for birds as much
as possible, and select the right areas for the antennas. Many terns
incubate their eggs and toddlers barely open their eyes. It really looks
like heaven.
We are fortunate to share the island with Mauritian fishermen friends
who are very willing to give us a hand, and even share the results of
their catch.
With this first communication also comes the first online log. We
ask you to make this expedition a success by providing helpful infor-
mation to our pilot stations.
Let’s get the party started!" [A picture was provided]

CQ MAGAZINE PRESS RELEASE. Richard Moseson, W2VU, Editorial Director for
CQ Communications, Inc., sent out the following on April 2nd [edited]:
ARRL and CQ Magazine Announce Launch of CQ's WAZ Award
Support on ARRL's Logbook of the World
Officials from CQ magazine and ARRL, The national association for Amateur
Radio®, are excited to announce the launch of support for CQ magazine's
Worked All Zones (WAZ) award program on ARRL's Logbook of the World (LoTW)
system, effective Monday, April 2, at 10:00 a.m. EDT (14:00 UTC).
The goal of the project was to create the proper technical support system
to enable amateur radio operators to submit LoTW confirmations for WAZ
credit and that has been accomplished, say CQ and ARRL officials.
"We are very pleased that participants in CQ's WAZ award program will
now be able to use their LoTW confirmations for award credit," said CQ
ditor Rich Moseson, W2VU. "CQ WPX Award participants have found it very
helpful and we are sure it will be equally helpful for those pursuing WAZ
and its many variations."
ARRL First Vice President Greg Widin, K0GW, concurred. "Users of LoTW
have been telling us for some time that they would like to use QSLs from
LoTW to apply for the WAZ award. They will now be able to select confir-
mations to be used for WAZ credit."
Beta testing for bringing CQ magazine's WAZ award program into ARRL's
LoTW system had been underway since mid-December. Any problems in the
implementation discovered by testers were corrected by the technical
support team. Also, the documentation has been improved by feedback from
the testers. At the same time, each LoTW user was given an additional
WAZ account.
Standard LoTW credit fees and separate CQ award fees will apply.
Logbook of the World is ARRL's electronic confirmation system for
amateur radio contacts. It provides a confirmation when both stations
in a contact submit their logs to the system and a match between the
logs is confirmed. LoTW has supported the CQ WPX Award program since 2012.
ADDED NOTE: Also, check out the ARRL press release on their Web page at:

using the callsign CT9ABN. QSL via OM2VL, direct or by the Bureau.
CY9C ST. PAUL ISLAND DXPEDITION NEWS (Cancelled). Randy, N0TG, informs
OPDX on April 3rd: "The DXpedition scheduled for August 1-9th, has been
cancelled. After considerable analysis and discussions as to expected
band conditions, the 'need-list' ranking significantly greater than 50,
and in order for the team to achieve our goals for maximum Q's and ATNO(s),
DX'ers would be better served if we postponed the DXpedition. We look
forward to a future St. Paul DXpedition effort when conditions signi-
ficantly improve."

REALTIME BAND CONDITIONS WEB SITE <http://www.bandconditions.com>:
The purpose of this experimental Web site is to provide 24-7-365 actual
(REALTIME) band condition information to CW QRPp, QRPe and CW/SSB for
Contesters interested in increasing their scores. It can also be of
benefit to other Radio Amateurs to determine band conditions for Nets
and casual QSO's. This information is NOT based on any software pre-
dictions or any kind of satellite based readings. It is based on a
new Ionospheric sounding method called "HF Ionospheric Interferometry"
which operates very similarly to the PolSAR system used by NASA.
