There is currently a DXpedition to T32 East Kiribati underway that are, or 
will be operting from some new IOTA numbers not currently in the DXB IOTA 
database.  The calls being used and their resptective islands are:

T32MI OC-279 Malden Island
T32SI OC-280 Starbuck Island
T32CI OC-281 Caroline Island
T32VI OC-282 Vostok and Flint Islands

I looked these islands up at the IOTA website and got their coordinates 
which I've added to my Iota... database as follows.  According to the DXB 
Help file "-" is for South latitude and East longitude, while "+" is for 
North latitude and West longitude.

OC279 -3.93  +154.9 Malden Island
OC280 -5.57  +155.8 Starbuck Island
OC281 -9.93  +150.2 Caroline Island
OC282 -10.03  +151.7 Vostok and Flint Islands

If anyone thinks I've made a mistake please let me know.

73,
