* PLEASE NOTE: The report "could" contain "Pirate/SLIM" operations or
  more likely a "BUSTED CALLSIGN". As always, you never know - "Work
  First Worry Later".

3DA0, KINGDOM OF ESWATINI (Swaziland) [Gene, K5GS, relayed the following;
dated September 17th]. 3DA0AO Kingdom of eSwatini (Swaziland) [Cancelled].
[edited] "Due to circumstances beyond his control Pista, HA5AO, will
return to Hungary sooner than planned. He will leave his equipment in
the country and return at a future date. Unfortunately, he is not able
to get on the air or participate in his planned humanitarian projects.
Donors to his project will receive a refund."

3W9, VIETNAM (Reminder). By the time you read this, Jacek, SP5APW, will
be done as 3W9JK/P from Cham Island (AS-162), and should be active
as 3W9JK from Ho An City in the Quang Nam Province between September
22-27th. Activity will be on 20-6 meters using SSB. QSL via his home
callsign, direct, by the Bureau or ClubLog's OQRS.

5A, LIBYA. YL Elham, 5A0YL, is now active from Tripoli, and was heard
on 20 meters (14280 kHz between 1530-1730z). She is a new operator and
is being mentored by Abubaker, 5A1AL. No other details are available,
but we were told to watch QRZ.com.

5R, MADAGASCAR (Looking For Ops!). Alex, K2BB, announced this past week
that he and his friend Paul, UU0JR, will be active as 5R8R (TBD) from
Nosy Be Island (IOTA AF-057), Madagascar, between November 19-29th.
Activity will be on 160-10 meters using CW, SSB and the Digital modes.
They will participate in the CQWW DX CW Contest (November 24-25th) as a
Multi-Single or possibly as Multi-2 entry (if they have enough ops...).
Alex states, "We will have 2 stations... Radios, so far: Kenwood TS-590,
Icom IC-7300, Elecraft KX3 just in case, Odyssey 2 SDR for fun, one radio
will have an Elecraft KPA-500 amplifier, second station will be 100W....
Antennas, so far: 2 verticals covering 160-80-40-30m, a Spiderbeam for
20...10m and possibly a Beverage if we have enough space for it. We are
renting a private villa which can accommodate 4 people - huge garden,
swimming pool, kitchen, cook, beach access, you name it... Sounds like
fun? Then join us! But make up your mind quickly. If interested, email
me directly at <alex.k2bb@gmail.com>."

6O, SOMALIA. Ali, EP3CQ, who works for United Nations in African Union
Mission to Somalia (AMISOM), in Mogadishu, has received his 6O1OO license
to operate from Somalia. As soon as he has installed his station, Ali
thinks he can be active on SSB, on 15 and 20 meters everyday between
1800-2000 East Africa Time (EAT) and on the weekend (Friday and Saturday)
between 1400-1800. Look for more details to be forthcoming.

7Q, MALAWI. Don, K6ZO, will once again be active as 7Q6M from Embangweni
Mission Hospital, in Northern Malawi, between October 23-29th. Activity
will be on 160-10 meters. He will also be in the CQWW DX SSB Contest
(October 27-28th). QSL via K6ZO.

8P, BARBADOS. Tom, W2SC, will once again be active as 8P5A during
the CQWW DX SSB Contest (October 27-28th) as Single-Op/All-Band/High-
Power entry. Look for him to do casual operating and testing before and
after the contest on 160-10 meters using CW and SSB. QSL via LoTW or
direct to NN1N.

9K, KUWAIT. Abdallah, 9K2GS, will once again be active as 9K2K during
the CQWW DX SSB Contest (October 27-28th) as a Single-Op/All-Band/High-
Power entry. QSL via EC5AC or LoTW.

9X, RWANDA (Just A Reminder!). Members of the Italian DX Team, who will
be active as 9X0T between September 27th and October 10th, will also use
a second callsign, 9X0Y, on FT8 only in the DXpedition mode. Again,
suggested frequencies are:
  CW   - 1826, 3530, 7025, 10115, 14030, 18068, 21030, 24890 and 28030 kHz
  SSB  - 3775, 7090, 14260, 18128, 21260, 24950 and 28460 kHz
  RTTY - 14084 kHz (only)
  FT8  - 7056, 10131, 14090, 18095, 21091, 24911 and 28091 kHz
The team has prepared a brief, step-by-step manual for configuring the
“Hound Mode” of the WSJT-X program which can be found on their Web page.
QSL via I2YSB direct only. For more details and updates as well as a log
search and an OQRS are available on:    http://www.i2ysb.com/idt

C2, NAURU (6m EME Operation). Lance, W7GJ (ex WA3GPL, WA1JXN, WA1JXN/C6A,
ZF2OC/ZF8, E51SIX, 3D2LR, 5W0GJ, E6M, TX5K, KH8/W7GJ, V6M, T8GJ, VK9CGJ
and VK9XGJ), sent out the following on September 19th [edited]: 
  Hello 6m DXers! Early next week, I leave Montana and hope to be QRV
on 6m from Nauru by the end of this month. I hope to work many of the
larger stations before the first weekend in October, when the Degradation
is lowest and 6m EME CNDX are optimum, giving smaller stations their best
chance. The link to my planned operating schedule is on my DXpedition
web page:      http://www.bigskyspaces.com/w7gj/Nauru%202018.htm
  If you are interested in a contact, please read the above web page and
the links to my EME DXpedition procedures and proper setup of JT65A before
the end of the month! 
        http://www.bigskyspaces.com/w7gj/DXpedition%20Procedure.pdf
                 http://www.bigskyspaces.com/w7gj/JT65.pdf
  Please note that I am planning to use the same frequency I use for my
6m EME skeds when I am at home, 50.190. I will always be transmitting
JT65A during the first sequence. I expect to have an antenna site over-
looking the ocean to the east, so my moonrise will coincide with moonset
in western EU. I will try my best to site the antenna so I can operate
low enough to catch the rest of Region 1 during their moonrise. If you
are in Region 2 and have elevation, please wait until after the Region 1
moonset to call, since their window is so limited. Because I will have
elevation, I should also be able to work horizon-only stations in Region 2
during their moonset, at least on days when my elevation is manageable
(below 60 degrees).
  I expect to have periodic access to the internet, so I can post log
updates and status reports on my web page as well as on the ON4KST EME
CHAT page:        http://www.on4kst.info/chat/login.php?band=5
  One last plea - PLEASE coordinate your calling frequencies using the
ON4KST EME CHAT page! Do NOT just set your transmitter on 50.190 and
blindly start calling. Contacts are much easier if you all spread out
every 200 Hz. I will be using JT65A in WSJT10, so I will be able to find
callers down 1000 and up 800 Hz from 1270 Hz. (If you are calling during
your moonset, and your signal is doppler shifted down 100 Hz, make sure
you don't transmit below 900 Hz!) So, if you are using WSJT-X instead
of WSJT10, remember that all the spacings will be in reference to 1270 Hz
(+400 is a WSJT-X "offset" of 1670 Hz, -200 is 1070 Hz, etc). And once
you start calling on a frequency, STAY THERE! I will be watching that
frequency for you to see when you are copying me ;-)
  If I can find room to set it up, I hope to be able to operate FT8 (WSJT-X
Version 1.9.1 r8747) with a dipole on 20m and 100w when the moon is not
up. The HF activity is most likely to be toward the end of the DXpedition,
but I expect C21GJ will pop up on PSKReporter when I can get on.
  I am excited about providing a new DXCC for so many people ;-) And
thanks so much to all the supporters who already have so generously
contributed toward the expenses of this DXpedition - your help is GREATLY
appreciated! It is costing as much to get my equipment over there as it
is to transport me - no wonder C2 has never been on EME before!
  GL to all and TNX again for all your help! VY 73, Lance

FP, ST. PIERRE AND MIQUELON (NA-032). Operators Ronan/F5TJP and Georg/DK7LX

  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.

  Also, check out the VOACAP predication Web page at:

VP6D DUCIE ISLAND DXPEDITION NEWS (Press Release #10, dated September
21st). [edited] -- VP6D Ducie Island 2018 DX-pedition (OC-182)
  The VP6D – Ducie Island 2018 project is on schedule.
  We are excited to announce the availability of DXA during VP6D. Bob
Schmieder, KK6EK, of Cordell Expeditions offered the use of DXA and we
gladly accepted.  
  By pointing your browser to <http://www.dxa3.org/vp6d/> DXA allows
anyone with an ordinary browser to see VP6D activity, in near real time.
Within 60 seconds of your contact with VP6D, the browser page is auto-
matically updated to show your callsign, this confirms that your contact
is in the log (DXA reads the VP6D log). This process eliminates the need
for duplicate contacts on the same band / mode and minimizes the confusion
caused by pirates or other DX-peditions operating at the same time. 
  During our equipment consolidation weekend in California we performed
an end to end DXA test: N1MM => BGAN => Inmarsat satellite => DXA3 server =>
laptop. We are confident that DXA will significantly reduce, or eliminate,
the hundreds of e-mails asking for “log checks”. If you see your callsign
on DXA you’re in the log. Thanks to Bob, KK6EK, Pete, W6OP, and the DXA
team for their support.
  Speaking of logs, we will upload the log every day to the VP6D.com -
Log Search tab. We do not use Clublog and there is no Leaderboard.
  With the loan of a portable 6m EME antenna - Lance, W7GJ, - has prepared
the VP6D team to put Ducie Island on 6 EME  for the first time ever.
Operation will be on 50.200 JT65. We intend to be active at Ducie moonrise
on most days and occasionally during moonset. Watch our Twitter feed for
up to the minute information.
  Follow us on Twitter / Facebook for updates from the island. We installed
and tested a bridge between our Garmin inReach =>Twitter =>Facebook.
  The cost of this project is ~$175,000(USDs). To date, we are at 87% of
our donation target. Our goal is all donations plus OQRS income will cover
50% of the project cost, with the team members paying the remaining 50%.
There’s still time for you to join the hundreds of DXers, and many founda-
tions, clubs and corporate entities already on the list.
  There will be at least 3 DX-peditions operating in the Pacific during
Oct / Nov. Please make sure you’re working and logging the correct DX-
pedition – VP6D operating frequencies are listed on the website. DXA will
enable you verify your VP6D contact(s).

VP6D DUCIE ISLAND DXPEDITION NEWS (VP6D 6m EME operations). Lance, W7GJ
(ex WA3GPL, WA1JXN, WA1JXN/C6A, ZF2OC/ZF8, E51SIX, 3D2LR, 5W0GJ, E6M,
TX5K, KH8/W7GJ, V6M, T8GJ, VK9CGJ and VK9XGJ), sent out the following
on September 19th [edited]:
  Hello 6m DXers! As you have undoubtedly heard, VP6D is planning to be
QRV on 6m EME starting next month. EME CNDX look relatively good everyday
of their trip, and the days after October 30 include the best days of the
month (lowest Degradation) for EME ;-) Operation is planned for 50.200,
with VP6D transmitting during the first period JT65A mode. If local QRM
from the HF stations requires any change from this frequency, it will be
announced on the ON4KST EME CHAT page. 
                http://www.on4kst.info/chat/login.php?band=5
  They will be using a 6M8GJ yagi and >1000w output. Since they will be
using their K3's on FT8 when on HF, they are currently expecting to be
using WSJT-X for their JT65A mode operation. For the convenience of those
of us still using WSJT10 for JT65A, they are planning to use an offset
of 1270 Hz. This is their first time to use JT65A on EME, and the first
time to use it during a pileup situation, so please be patient with them!
Because of this, it is especially important to coordinate your calling
frequencies on the ON4KST EME CHAT page, so the callers will be spread
out. Ideally, please try to space yourselves out every 200 Hz to make it
easier for them to decode individual callers. They will be using the
W7GJ EME DXpedition procedure, so please familiarize yourself with that
before calling them!
       http://www.bigskyspaces.com/w7gj/DXpedition%20Procedure.pdf
  They will be operating horizon-only, and will be primarily concentrating
on each moonrise, which will provide a clear shot directly out over the
ocean to their east. Look for them to be QRV starting then their moon is
-2 degrees elevation and possibly as high as 20 degrees. After their first
few days, we all will have a better idea exactly where they have the best
ground gain lobes. Because there are a number of days during low Degradation
when their moonset is to the northwest, there is a good possibility that
they also will be able to be QRV during certain moonsets with the moon
setting out over the ocean. Moonset operation will largely depend on the
final sitting of all the various operating stations and antennas.
  Updates on their anticipated moonset operation, as well as confirmation
of their upcoming moonrise status and a list of stations worked will be
provided on a daily basis. They will not have real time internet access,
but this information will be relayed on the ON4KST EME CHAT page. There
will be a number of opportunities for horizon-only station in Region 1
to contact them on the Ducie moonrise, although stations in western EU
will need elevation to catch them during their moonrise. While most East
Coast NA stations in Region 2 will need elevation to contact them during
their moonrise, many horizon-only stations in Region 2 will be able to
contact them during their shared moonsets with Ducie. Region 3 stations
will need elevation to contact them during Ducie moonsets.
  Many MANY thanks to the VP6D team for undertaking this limited 6m EME
operation ;-) With the excellent EME CNDX during their trip, and the
spectacular siting of their 6m yagi overlooking the ocean, it will be
very interesting to see how many small stations end up in their log!
    GL to all and VY 73, Lance
