3Y0 BOUVET ISLAND ISSUED LICENSES. Tom, LA4LN, the Norwegian Radio Relay
League (NRRL) HF Traffic Manager, informed OPDX the following in an E-mail:
  Dear DX friends,
    There has been some confusion about what amateur radio calls have
  been licensed for use from the Bouvet Island (2nd Most Wanted DXCC
  Entity; IOTA AN-002) for the year to come.
    The Norwegian Communications Authority informs me that the following
  licenses are valid as of 25 January 2017:
    3Y0G  Granted to ON4WW, valid from 1 January 2017 to 30 April 2017.
    3Y0Z  Granted to LA6VM, valid from 1 December 2017 to 30 April 2018.
    3Y0H  Granted to RA9USU, valid from 1 January 2018 to 28 February 2018.
    3Y0I  Granted to 3Z9DX, valid from 13 January 2017 to 31 December 2017.


  EDITOR'S NOTE: So far the 3Y0Z operation is the only DXpedition scheduled
  to hit the airwaves sometime in early 2018. 


5A, LIBYA. OPDX was informed that Abubaker, 5A1AL, has reported the
following [edited]: "...the situation here is bad and we still have hope
that it will get better but no signs for such a hope till now. Yes, I am
still using 5A1AL, but I live in very limited space so my signal is not
that good. I am using base loaded vertical antenna so no space for dipoles,
beside that I have high level noise and I guess propagation is also not
that good. We can try to set up a sked on the bands, of course if we have
electricity here. We are suffering from power outage; most times we are
without electricity for 8-9 hours/very bad during the cold winter."


5K0, SAN ANDRES (Update). Operators Tim/LW9EOC, Will/AA4NC and Ron/AA4VK
will be on San Andres between February 13th and March 29th, and will be

E5, NORTH COOK ISLANDS (IOTA Op). DX-World reports that Andy, E51AND,
will be traveling to Nassau Atoll (OC-098) and possibly operate on February

but he hopes to operate during his spare time and in the evenings between
0500-0900z) on whichever bands are open. He is taking a Yaesu FT857D, LDG
tuner and a 43 ft vertical that he hopes to mount in or near the lagoon. He
is limited to 75 ­ 100watts SSB and QRS CW (very basic station). Log will

secure the callsign E51AD or E51AN for this North Cooks operation to
distinguish it (and future N. Cooks operations) from his regular South
Cooks activities.

  REALTIME BAND CONDITIONS WEB SITE :
  The purpose of this experimental Web site is to provide 24-7-365 actual
  (REALTIME) band condition information to CW QRPp, QRPe and CW/SSB for
  Contesters interested in increasing their scores. It can also be of
  benefit to other Radio Amateurs to determine band conditions for Nets
  and casual QSO's. This information is NOT based on any software pre-
  dictions or any kind of satellite based readings. It is based on a
  new Ionospheric sounding method called "HF Ionospheric Interferometry"
  which operates very similarly to the PolSAR system used by NASA.
