AS-040. Look for JA6QIN/6 to be active from four different islands in the Goto Island Group between November 5-7th. Islands mentioned are: Arifuku, Wakamatsu, Zuga and Nakadori (all in the JA6 Nagasaki Pref). Activity will be on the HF bands. QSL to his home callsign, direct or by the bureau.

NA-041. Rick, K6VVA, will once again activate Revillagigedo Island (USI AK141S, WW Loc. CO45IP, 1st South Eastern County, Alaska). Activity will take place during the ARRL 160m Contest (November 30th-December 2nd). He will be operating as KL8C, and he also hopes to be active on the other bands as K6VVA/KL7 again as during his September (2007) operation (QSLs are being printed - QSL via N6AWD).

Rick mentions that the operating QTH has a great over-salt-water path to the U.S. and much of Europe, although his conditions in September were not good for EU. There is a big hill in the direction of JA, so Rick may try to operate from the other side of the Island with a clear shot to JA for a while during the daytime/non-160m hours (if not this trip, then the next time).

NA-069. Look for Bren, G4DYO, (ex-editor for the DX News Sheet) to be active as W4/G4DYO from Captiva Island for few hours on November 16th. Activity will be on 20 meters.
