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

3B8, MAURITIUS
Operator Jurgen, DJ5HD, is now active as 3B8/DJ5HD until February 15th. Activity will be on 80-10 meters CW/SSB. He was heard this past on 40 meters CW after 1900z. QSL via his home callsign.

3Y, PETER I ISLAND
Probably by the time you read this the 3Y0X DXpedition should be on the air. Activity is expected to start Monday, February 6th, and last for about 12-14 days. This is probably the biggest DXpedition to hit the airwave to date. As this was being written, the 3Y0X Web page reported

"Our current ETA at Peter I is Sunday, Feb. 5th at 2300 hours. Our first reconnaisance flight will be at first light on Monday morning about 0700Z weather permitting!" It also reports, "First four men ashore will be Erling/LA6VM, Bob/K4UEE, Ralph/KØIR and Bob/N6OX. The plan is to set up OP B and make it self-sufficient before building the main camp. This way if WX deteriorates, we will have a 'foothold' on the island with two stations QRV. If WX is OK, we will proceed with building the camp before going on the air."
This operation should be fun to work with 9 stations on and with activity on 160-10/6/2 meters and 70cm. QSL via N2OO (Please read the note under QSL INFO AND NEWS...). Don, N1DG, Chief 3Y0X Pilot Station, states, "For up to the minute news on Peter I including videos from the Island the best source is the Peter I Web site.... There will be no releases by the team other than what we post as news on the Web site on a daily basis." The Web site is:

DXPEDITION TO ANTARCTIC AND SOUTHERN OCEAN
Members of the Trowbridge & District Amateur Radio Club TDARC, Jan/G0BBL and Chris/G0HFX, will travel to Terra del Fuego (IOTA SA-008) and Patagonia from February 3-13th. They will be using the callsigns LU/G0BBL and LU/G0HFX. They are planning to be active on 15/20/30/40 meters, depending on the band conditions. Chris informed OPDX that the Radio Club of Ushuaia, LU8XW, has invited them to use their club station and let them work from IOTA SA-008 during their visit. The probable date is February 8th; the Radio Club of Ushuaia's monthly club night. This is probably going to be the best chance to work them as LU8XW since they have a contest grade club station. See the following Web page for details at:

There are still plenty of QSL cards available from these two stations via ZL2HE. 2 USDs or one IRC will bring a quick response. View QRZ.com for the new ZL2HE address.

PY0S, ST. PETER AND ST PAUL ROCKS
Joca, PY0S/PS7JN, who will be or is about to go QRT from the scientific Brasilian base on St. Peter and St. Paul Rocks, has posted some photos of his previous expeditions to the Rocks on the following Web site:

http://www.geocities.com/ps7jn/
PLEASE NOTE: The QSL information on that site looks to now be obsolete. Joca has posted in some detail on QRZ.com how to go about QSLing the current PY0S/PS7JN operation.

QSL INFO AND NEWS
QSL BUREAU ACTIVITY ON A DECLINE??? (Story continues!) Nenad, VE3EXY, informs OPDX that the VE QSL Bureau has also experienced a decline over the last 6 years. He states, "... a decline of 60 kg in the year 2005, or almost 300 kg less than in its best days (2001). The rule of thumb is that 1 kg = 333 QSL cards (e.g. 500 kg = 165000 cards). This trend is mostly driven by solar activity, but also by increasing postal costs, aging DX population, and electronic QSLing alternatives." PLEASE NOTE: It would be interesting to hear from other area QSL Bureaus to see if they are experiencing the same decline. QSL Bureau Managers are welcome to send a small report to OPDX.

3Y0X, CE0Z AND XR9A QSL INFO. QSL Manager Bob, N2OO, reports that QSLs for XR9A/8, XR9A/MM and XR9A can be sent in the same envelope via N2OO. He asks that QSLs for CE0Z sent via N2OO be sent in a separate envelope. For more detailed info, go to:

http://www.qsl.net/n2oo/history/qsl-n2oo.htm
Bob also asks that QSLs for 3Y0X be sent in a separate envelope via N2OO. 3Y0X QSL info:
http://www.peterone.com/qsl.htm
Sending cards for multiple calls in one envelope will SERIOUSLY delay your QSL. Please send separately if at all possible!

QSL Manager Emir, 9A6AA, informs OPDX that the logs for 9A150NT (all 9A counties) are available at:

http://www.hamradio.hr/9a150nt
Logs will be updated from time to time during 2006. More information about the special event station, 9A150NT, and the "Nikola Tesla Award" is available at:
http://www.inet.hr/9a6aa/9a150nt.htm

NEW QSL MANAGER. Phil, N1KI, informs OPDX that he is now the QSL Manager for the T40C contest station. The station is currently manned by Winston/CO2WF and Willy/CO2UG. Look for T40C to be active in the important CW Contest such as CQ WW DX, CQ WW WPX, ARRL International and possible ARRL 10m International Contest.

NOT THE QSL MANAGER. Raul, DK3KC, who is the QSL Manager for their local section of the DARC, reports that DL5NAM is "NOT" the QSL Manager for ST2M and ST2BSS. In the past he has received a lot of QSL cards for DL5NAM (for ST2M and ST2BSS). All of the QSL cards are being returned to the sender via the bureau.

TOP 5 QSL MANAGER SURVEY HAS ENDED. John, K1XN, announced this past week that the "2005 TOP 5 QSL Manager Survey" has ended. John states, "The survey this year was lacking in interest by the DX community as a whole. Less than 100 responses were received from USA/CANADA. Less than a thousand responses in total were received. Nothing like the response from years past. Maybe this indicates that everyone is getting their contacts confirmed by LoTW or eQsl!! It distrubs me that DXers will not take a few minutes to respond to a survey to honor a group of guys/gals that give of so much time and money so the rest of us can enjoy receiving awards and other benefits of DXing. I guess times are changing more rapidily than I thought. The Top 5 survey WILL NOT be conducted for 2006. Maybe this will give DXers time to work some stations and have the benefit of using the best QSL service in the world 'QSL Managers'." Here is the complete list of the nominees for the Top 5 awards for 2005:

The Top 5 QSL Managers that received the most nominations will be selected and will be announced very soon. An award plaque or plate for a plaques will be awarded via mail to the winners. John thanks all of you that responded with your choices of the best of the best QSL Manager world wide. He also thanks all QSL Managers for helping the rest of us enjoy our hobby of DXing.
