KH5 - JARVIS ISLAND, OC-081 DXpedition to Jarvis Island (OC-081) organized by Radio Expeditions Inc has been postponed until November 2011. During the first half of 2010 the US Fish Wildlife Service developed a draft "Compatibility Determination for Amateur Radio Operations at the Jarvis Island National Wildlife Refuge". This document contains the rules and constraints for DXpeditions at Jarvis and was made available on 21 Jun 2010 for public comments to arrive not later than 5 July. The FWS Honolulu office staff reviewed the comments, made a number of changes and submitted a final draft for approval at their regional office in Portland, Oregon. The final version was released on 28 July and revised applications for a permit were accepted until 25 August. The constraints in the Compatibility Determination required a radical restructuring of Radio Expedition Inc's plans, reducing both the number of stations and the time on the air. Since more than one amateur radio group submitted an application which met the requirements of the compatibility determination, a lottery among the qualified groups was held at the FWS Honolulu office by the refuge manager on 30 August. Radio Expeditions Inc was fortunate to be selected. However, due to the time required to establish the rules for amateur radio operations from Jarvis, the late selection date, and the lead time required to schedule and prepare the MV Braveheart, the expedition has been postponed one year. November remains the best month to visit Jarvis Island from a propagation standpoint, with the largest combination of openings predicted to Europe on both 160/80m and 12/10m. [DX Newsletter] -------------------------------- NEW SOUTH POLE STATION ACTIVE -
Over the last several weeks I have learned that the old South Pole Station has been completely dismantled and all ant operations are now taking place at the New South Pole Station (Amundsens Scott Base) including operations from KC4AAA.
The new location has been assigned the number WAP-36. An announcement has been made on the WAP web site with all the details, effective dates, etc.
_http://www.waponline.it/NewsInformation/tabid/178/Default.aspx_ (http://www.waponline.it/NewsInformation/tabid/178/Default.aspx)
_http://www.usap.gov/videoclipsandmaps/spwebcam.cfm_ (http://www.usap.gov/videoclipsandmaps/spwebcam.cfm)
The current operator at KC4AAA is Andy WA2DKJ. He has been active for a few weeks. He is on regularly 14.243 Mhz 0100-0400 UTC. As always I will encourage him to operate during times suitable for Europe and Asia. They are running about 800w and a Telrex 6 element 20m monobander, but have other antennas available as well.

ZCZC AG30 QST de W1AW ARRL Bulletin 30 ARLB030 >From ARRL Headquarters Newington CT December 16, 2010 To all radio amateurs
SB QST ARL ARLB030 ARLB030 New Rules Governing Vanity, Club Station Call Signs to Take Effect February 14
On Wednesday, December 15, new rules affecting vanity and club station call signs within the Amateur Radio Service were published in the Federal Register. They can be found in PDF format at, http://edocket.access.gpo.gov/2010/pdf/2010-31349.pdf. These new rules will go into effect on February 14, 2011.
Thirteen months ago, the FCC announced its intention of modifying Part 97 as it applies to the vanity call sign system and club station call signs, aligning the rules to prior Commission decisions. Last month, the Commission released a Report and Order (R&O), outlining its decision. Along with the changes to the call sign rules, the FCC made "certain minor, non-substantive amendments" to portions of Part 97.
