          DXpedition to Chatham Island (OC-038) between 15 and 29 October. "We
          do realise that  ZL7 is not  on the most  wanted country list",  Ken
          Holdom, ZL4HU [EMAIL PROTECTED] says, "but the timing of this event
          will coincide with the CQ WW  SSB Contest which will give DXers  and
          Contesters alike, the  opportunity to perhaps  gain a new  band/mode
          for  their  awards".  The  operation  site  has  been  arranged  and
          confirmed as well as the callsign  TBA later and the  multi-national
          team of operators hopes to be able to operate 160 through 10  metres
          on all bands where possible. There will be no online logs or  pilots
          as this will be "a back-to-the-basics  DXpedition". The Kermadec  DX
          Association would welcome  donations and equipment  support for  the
          DXpedition. The  address  for all  correspondence  is:  Kermadec  DX
          Association - ZL7, P.O.  Box 7, Clyde,  Central Otago, New  Zealand.
