BALTIC WAY 30 ---> On 23 August 1989  hundreds of thousands people formed  a
human chain spanning  across  Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania,  demanding  the
reestablishment of the independence of the Baltic States.  Commemorating the
30th anniversary of the "Baltic Way", memorial stations ES30WAY, LY30WAY and
YL30WAY will be active  on  19-25 August.  This  is a joint project  of  the
amateur radio  societies  of  Estonia (Eesti Raadioamatooride Uhing,  ERAU),
Lithuania (Lietuvos Radijo Megeju Draugija, LRMD) and Latvia (Latvijas Radio
Amatieru Liga, LRAL). QSLs via Club Log's OQRS, LoTW and eQSL. A certificate
will be available; see http://lrmd.lt/30WAY for instructions.

HAPPY 150! ---> 2019 marks the 150th anniversary  of the birth  (2 September
1869) of Hiram Percy Maxim (W1AW),  first president  and  cofounder  of  the
ARRL, and the League is again holding  an operating event  to celebrate  his
legacy.  This operating event is  open  to  all amateurs, and  the  goal  is
straightforward: find stations operating in the event, many adding "/150" to
their  call signs,  and  contact  as  many a s  possible  during  the  9-day
celebration, from 31 August to 8 September.  W1AW and all  ARRL members  are
eligible and will append /150 to their  call sign  during  this event  (this
includes DX Stations who are ARRL members, who may operate  as  callsign/150
if  permitted  by  the  regulations  of  their  country   of  license).  See
http://www.arrl.org/hpm150-birthday-celebration for complete information.  A
dedicated  logging  programme  developed  by  Scott Davis,  N3FJP   can   be
downloaded for free: http://www.n3fjp.com/hpmaxim.html

IOTA:  TRANSFER  OF  CREDITS  FROM AS-117  TO  AS-206 --- > "All old AS-117
credits issued for operations from islands which now belong to  AS-206 have
been transferred to AS-206.
Additionally, old AS-117 operations from islands  now  within  AS-206  which
have logs at Club Log enabled for QSO matching, as well as old  IOTA Contest
logs which fall in this category have been appropriately amended  to be used
toward AS-206 credits.  Please  direct any  questions you may have  on  this
topic to info[@]iota-world.org"  [VE3LYC, https://iota-world.org/,  8 August
2019]

IOTA:  TRANSFER  OF  OLD  AS-025,  EU-019, AND EU-133 CREDITS --- > "All old
credits issued for operations from islands which used to be at one time part
of these island groups  but are  now  within  AS-204,  EU-190,  and  EU-117,
respectively, have been transferred. In case the respective chasers  already
had credits for the latter groups, their original credits were revoked.
EU-117 and EU-133 have been re-organized after  Malyy Visotsky Is.  lost its
DXCC status in 2012, but the credit transfer was postponed until now.
Old operations from the above island groups  which  have  logs  at  Club Log
enabled for QSO matching, as well as old  IOTA Contest logs which fall  into
this category have been appropriately amended to continue to be used  toward
IOTA credits.  Please direct  any questions  you  may have on this topic  to
info[@]iota-world.org" [VE3LYC, https://iota-world.org/, 14 August 2019]

MIDWAY ISLAND 2020 ---> Ron, KH6DV has announced that "for a number of  very
good reasons" the February 2020 KH6VV/KH4 DXpedition to Midway [425DXN 1474]
has been postponed. "Some of the things we are working on will take a number
of months - one will take 4 or 5 by  itself.  We  could postpone  for just a
couple months but then  we  would be operating  during  the summer with  its
associated terrible conditions.  We have decided to plan for  the first  two
weeks in October 2020". [TNX DX World]

QSL R63RRC ---> The logs  for  the  IOTA DXpedition  to  Popigay-Ary Island,
AS-063 (15,265 QSOs logged between 24 July and 3 August) have been posted to
Club Log and the OQRS has been enabled: https://clublog.org/logsearch/R63RRC
Those who do not use Club Log should  go direct  and mail  their request  to
EU7A  (maildrop):  Andrey  N. Teterukov,  P.O.  Box 13,  212030  Mogilev-30,

toward AS-206 credits.  Please  direct any  questions you may have  on  this

of months - one will take 4 or 5 by  itself.  We  could postpone  for just a

associated terrible conditions.  We have decided to plan for  the first  two
weeks in October 2020". [TNX DX World]
