3D2Y: CLUB LOG LEADERBOARD CHALLENGE ---> "As a thanks  to the stations  who
have helped us to attain our QSO goals, we are announcing the  3D2Y Club Log
Leaderboard Challenge.  The objective  is simple:  work us on  as many  band
slots as possible!
We will be awarding a personalized bound photo album  to the  top 5 stations
on the leaderboard on  each of the five continents  -  North America,  South
America, Europe, Asia and Oceania.  Positions 6 through 50 on each continent
will receive a certificate signed by the team.
We are  hopeful  that  the  challenge  will add  additional  excitement  and
incentive to work the 3D2Y team.  To be eligible,  a station  must  make  an
early donor donation, or request a card through OQRS.
We  are  still  working  hard  to reach our funding raising  goals  for  the
November DXpedition.  Please consider supporting the 3D2Y Rotuma DXpedition.
Visit our website for details:  https://rotuma2024.com/.  All donations  are
greatly appreciated".

BOUVET 2026 & PETER I 2027 ---> "The 3Y0K Bouvet 2026 team are still working
on the vessel and helicopter contracts  and we are in the final stage before
signing  the contracts.  We are sorting out  the last minute deals  and  are
still looking for some more operators for Bouvet and Peter I teams.  Funding
of these two DXpeditions also heavily depends on  us getting a full team  of
operators onboard that contribute  with their participation fee.  Should you
wish to join our team, please contact admin[@]3y0.no or Cezar, VE3LYC.
We estimate to stay around the island for three weeks and the total duration
should be around 38 days to Bouvet  and a little bit less to Peter I.  We do
have all the helicopter  and  landing permits issued by NPI to go to onshore
Bouvet and Peter I with a full scale operation.  Planning these two  DXpedi-
tions is very time consuming where the logistics have to be coordinated with
other expeditions and that is why it takes time to sign contracts. Our plans
are to use the same vessel for both DXpeditions.  First the vessel  and crew
will take us to Bouvet where we will do landing with a helicopter,  then our
equipment will later be shipped to South America  and stored there before we
return one year later to go to  Peter I Island  scheduled for departure late
January 2027. Our plans are to go onshore Peter I with two helicopters first
week  of  February 2027.  This  way  of running the  DXpeditions  is  a huge
advantage for the #7 most wanted DXpedition to Peter I. Island".

CARIBBEAN TOUR ---> Aleksandr,  EA8DBM (LY3UM)  was already active from  the
Virgin Islands  (KP2/EA8DBM,  10-16 October),  the  British  Virgin  Islands

Saint Martin (FS/EA8DBM) on 10-13 November, Saint Barthelemy (FJ/EA8DBM)  on
14-18 November and finally Puerto Rico  (KP4/EA8DBM) on 19-24 November.  See
https://ea8dbm.substack.com for updates.  All QSOs will be uploaded to LoTW.
The OQRS for direct and bureau cards can be found on https://www.ea8dbm.com.

HAM SPIRIT CONTEST ---> Inspired by the  Amateur's Code  written by  Paul M.
Segal (W9EEA) in 1928,  the 2024 edition of the  HAM Spirit Contest  will be
held in a single round on 30 November-1 December, from 08.00 UTC on Saturday
through 07.59 UTC on Sunday. The objective  is for amateurs around the world
to contact as many other amateurs in  as many Maidenhead Grid Fields and ITU
Zones as possible  using  CW  and SSB on  160, 80, 40, 20, 15 and 10 metres.
