CY9, ST. PAUL ISLAND (Update). The CY9M Team posted the following press release (#3) on July 6th [edited]: "Very soon it's time for an inter- national team of 10 amateur radio operators to board their flights to Nova Scotia, Canada, to participate in the expedition to St. Paul Island, a top-40 'most wanted' DXCC.
Quick Facts: CY9M St. Paul Island, July 26th-August 1st, 160-6 meters, QSL via M0URX. Once the team arrives at St. Paul, in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, we plan to unpack and prepare six Elecraft K3 transceivers, four amplifiers, raise three Hex Beams and a number of other antennas in order to be active all bands from 160 through 6 meters CW, SSB and Digital. The power station consists of three generators that will constantly charge three large battery tanks for maximum efficiency. We plan to consume more that 500 litres of fuel, large amounts of camping food and other 'necessities', including several hundred litres of water – all of which are not found on the island. The team, together with 2 tons of equipment and supplies, head out to sea on a 42 foot motor vessel on the evening of 25th July or on the morning of the 26th depending on weather. We expect to be active starting July 26th and continuously rock the bands until August 1st, weather permitting. Participation throughout the IOTA contest. After the activity, all contacts will be verified via LoTW and for those who want paper QSL, Tim Beaumont, M0URX, lends us his excellent manager services. The log will be available through ClubLog, likely after the expedition. The activity is supported both financially and through the loan of equipment by several large clubs such as NCDXF, GDXF, ARRL and companies like Elecraft, Acom and DX Engineering. But we are most proud that so many individual amateur operators and DX chasers contribute to the activity out of their own pocket. If you would like to donate any amount to the CY9M St. Paul Island Dxpedition, please click here: http://www.cy9m.com/donor Feel free to follow us on Twitter and Facebook for the latest news updates. We look forward to working you from St. Paul Island, a top 40 most wanted DXCC. 73, CY9M Team, St. Paul Island DXpedition Bill, N2WB Kevin, VE3EN George, EA2TA Steve, VA3FM Christian, EA3NT Victoria, SV2KBS Simon, IZ7ATN Bjorn, SM0MDG Col, MM0NDX Mike, AB5EB"

DIAMOND DXCC (Additional Diamond DXCC Tools and Reports Now Available). The ARRL Web page reports, "The Diamond DXCC Award, celebrating the 75th anniversary of DXCC, has proven to be popular around the world. Nearly 700 applications have been filed, with K3RA presently sitting atop the list with 200 of the 231 possible entities in the log. Some incredibly rare places have been on the air in 2012 so far, including Tibet and Socotra Island! Recently ARRL has been able to add some additional tools and reports to the Diamond DXCC system.
