         is one day earlier than planned, as "the warm and humid climate  is
         a challenge for  central Europeans", and  they will need  more time
         than expected to dismantle the antenna system.

         7 or 8 November for about ten days.  Three operators will be active
         on 160-6m. FT8 operations will always be Fox and Hound,  and do not
         be surprised  if you see two signals  on the same band  (e.g. 14074
         and 14090 kHz,  or 18100 and 18095 KhZ)  at the same time.  QSL via

         mark https://www.facebook.com/rebeldxgroup for updates.
T8     - Upon arrival in Palau  on  1 November,  team T88WA  discovered that
         their  primary operating site had an  "intractable S9 noise  across
         all bands coming from underground cable and telephone wires running
         all  along the island  under  the power poles".  They surveyed  six
         other locations, found two that could potentially work and  finally
         were given permission "to rent some state owned land  in far north-
         ern Palau" (WWL PJ77hr).  They moved all of their equipment to  the
         new site, and  finally  T88WA was QRV  with the first station  on 4
         November  around  12.15 UTC.  The team  reports  that they are  not
         completely noise free, though, as they have  "a big batch of inter-
         ference from 3.550 to 3.800. We'll continue to work to resolve, but
         may have to dodge it on 80m". QSL via M0URX, direct  or  preferably
         through his OQRS (https://www.m0urx.com/oqrs/). See qrz.com's entry
         for T88WA for band plan and QSLling policy.
VP5    - Mark, WQ7X will be active  again as  VP5/WQ7X  from  Providenciales
         (NA-002), Turks & Caicos on  5-15 November.  He will operate CW and
         SSB on 80-10 metres. [TNX DX World]

         as ZC4RH from the UK Sovereign Base Area of Dhekelia  (WWL KM64ux),

         OQRS, or via DK6SP.
