NCDXF Press Release

NCDXF is pleased to announce a significant grant to Juris, YL2GM for his

just announced trip to ZS8W. We kept our announcement until he was safely

on the vessel to Marion Island. We have been holding this announcement

for several years. Juris has been to South Africa several times with the

promise of transportation only to be disappointed. We are so happy for

Juris to finally board the ship.

Marion Island is ranked #11 on the Club Log most wanted list. Everyone

will be very excited to get an All Time New One, ATNO and fill their

band/modes for the DXCC Challenge. Juris is an outstanding operator and

has a track record of getting everyone in the log. More information can

be found at Juris’ website https://www.lral.lv/zs8w/

The mission of NCDXF is to provide necessary financial support for well-

organized DXpeditions to desirable DXCC entities and to support advances

in DXpeditioning skills, technology, and infrastructure. Those funds come

from the contributions of our supporters in the DX community. Your contri-

bution will help make DX happen. Visit our website: www.ncdxf.org.

Respectfully submitted.

Craig Thompson, K9CT

NCDXF Vice President
