           primarily CW on 40/30/20/17 meters. Dates may change slightly
           depending upon local WX. The objective is a minimum of 3 days
           of activity within the indicated date range. There is a slight
           possibility for a brief NA-172 activation as K9AJ/KL7 right
           after NA-242 before they leave the North Slope of Alaska.
           Updates will be posted to the "Latest News" section of the
           NA-242 Expedition Web site: http://www.k6vva.com/iota/na242
           Due to the possibility of polar bears at NA-242, they have
           purchased electric bear fences, bear spray, and must hire
           one or more local "Bear Guards" with heavy firepower for
           24/7 protection. This will be a dangerous and extremely
           costly IOTA expedition -- due mostly to the air transport-
           ation of equipment. NA-242 in July is "The Main Event"
           after K6VVA warmup expeditions to NA-184 (April), NA-066
           (May with NI6T) and NA-091 (June with W6NV).

KH8, AMERICAN SAMOA. Currently, plans are being made for a DXpedition to
American Samoa (KH8) to take place between November 17-28th, inclusive
for the CQWW DX CW Contest (November 26-27th) possibly as a SOAB, Multi-
Single, or Multi-2 category. Callsign mentioned is K8A. Operators will
be Scott/W4PA (owner of VIBROPLEX) and others. According to DX Magazine,
KH8 American Samoa is now in the top 50 "Most Wanted Countries" in Europe
on CW, digital modes, and the low bands. North American low band demand
for KH8 will be substantial. According to DX Summit, the last spot on
160m for a KH8 operation was in 2006. The K8A operation will focus on
CW and digital mode operation with the intent of reducing the overall DX
demand from Europe and the need for low band counters in North America and
elsewhere. The contest operation is secondary to the overall DXpedition
goal of reducing worldwide CW and digital mode demand for KH8 as a DXCC
counter. More details should be forthcoming.

M0, ENGLAND (Special Event). Phil, G3SWH, will be active on CW only
using the special callsign M0RSE over the weekend of July 2-3rd. Activity
will be on all bands from 80-10 meters. All QSOs are welcome. There is
more information available at:          http://www.m0rse.org
Look for the logs to be uploaded to LoTW after the operation.

take place in Halifax, Nova Scotia, between August 5-6th, with an out-
standing program including: John/ON4UN, Reg/VE7IG, Scott/W3TX, Tim/
VE6SH and George/G4GRN/VE1GRN. However, for the first time they are
also offering an opportunity for those living outside Canada's Maritime
Provinces, and unable to join them in person, to participate in a Webinar
version of the MDF. The Webinar presentation will happen in real time
and allow participants to hear the speakers, view their visual material,
and see the activity at the venue. The Webinar software system allows
on-line participants to ask questions and make comments. Those living
in time zones where joining them in real time is difficult will be
able to download the program and view it at a convenient time. Program
