The following operations are approved for DXCC credit:
TJ9PF - Cameroon - 2011 Operation
VK0KEV - Macquarie Island - Current Operation
Special Note: "We have been notified that the TJ9PF QSL labels have been printed with the year 2001 instead of 2011. This is a known software bug that has been fixed. Regardless, we do not believe the integrity of the TJ9PF logs or operation are affected by this printing error. Also, the TJ9PF logs have now been uploaded to LoTW, providing a primary source of QSO confirmations. We will add instructions to the DXCC system internally to note this operation’s correct year. No one wants to promote the wasting of resources to reprint labels or cards, or to require resending of cards to fix an error which has little effect on the program. DXCC will accept TJ9PF QSLs showing the date as 2001.

Helsinki June 7, 2011 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MARKET REEF, OJ0B
This coming Saturday, Martti, OH2BH; Pertti, OH2PM and Pekka, OH2TA will land on the rocks for three days to finalize the semi-permanent antenna installation and to test Market Reef's new power plant. They will have two stations active as OJ0B primarily for 30M, 17M and 20M CW/SSB. It is also expected that one of the lighthouse keepers, Harri, OH6VM/OH0VM will follow the group for another week with the beam. OJ0B QSL via OH2BH. A group of Finnish DXers have agreed with the Finnish Lighthouse Society (FLS), the folks currently operating and renovating the Market Reef lighthouse, that a permanent SteppIR beam can remain on the roof of the building and can be used by visiting DX groups at the cost of modest compensation to the FLS. New services also include a large generator/battery plant able to supply 3x 230 VAC 10A each (6KW) on a 24/7 basis for visiting groups. In spite of inclement weather with icy storms, the SteppIR beam survived another winter season (2010/2011), and you can see its location by looking up the daily diary of the lighthouse for April 25, 2011 at <www.majakkaseura.fi> You may wish to note their recognition of NCDXF and OHDXF for supporting their valuable activities in saving and restoring another DXCC counter. FLS encourage radio visits to Market Reef from Aland Islands. If you plan to make a trip of your life as a small group and get into instant pileups, please contact the Finnish Lighthouse Society; <info@majakkaseura.fi> or these visiting DXers for more details.

Rotuma is located in the South Pacific Ocean and is #32 on Club Log's most wanted DXCC list. Hrane Milosevic-YT1AD has recently visited Fiji and has obtained the license of 3D2R and a landing permit. We have received the Rotuma Island Council's official approval as well as from the Prime Minister’s Office. The team of 19 operators will meet in Fiji on September 24th and sail to Rotuma with an arrival slated for September 27th. We will be active on all bands and modes from September 27th to October 7th, 2011. We will focus on the low bands at this time of the year and will make every effort to satisfy the needs of EU operators. At this time, we are seeking Foundation, Club and Individual Sponsors to help us defray the costs of carrying out this DXpedition.
