[Don WILSON]

 >3B8 - MAURITIUS
>Next week it's back to Mauritius for a holiday style DXpedition for
>HB9ARY, Paul, who will be on holiday there from July 9-25 as 3B8HC.
>He'll be using an FT450D and KPA500 testing his "new home-brew compact
>elevated delta-loop" on 80-30 meters, which he has a description
>posted at http://www.qrz.com/db/hb9ary.  Also he will use a "folding
>HexBeam" for 20, 17, 15, 12, 10 and 6 Meters.  Paul plans to try 80
>meters CW often "in order to determine how the antenna performs since
>the main objective was this band with the idea of using it again in
>January when the conditions are much better for EU and NA".  The
>antenna works well on 30 meters and he expects good results to the US,
>however he's still working on his CW, which he says "is not very
>good!"  QSL direct only via NI5DX.

>HC8 - GALAPAGOS ISLANDS
>HC1HC, Alfredo, plans to be QRV as HC1HC/HC8/qrp from the Galapagos

>of year they will attempt operations on Topband.  The St. Paul Island
>DXpedition team are taking a survey as to which bands and modes DXers
>need CY9 at http://www.cy9dxpedition.com/need-survey.html.
