3D2/R  - 3D22 (Three Delta Twenty-two) and  3D2V  are the callsigns that the
         Rebel DX Group  will be using during their  upcoming  activity from

         October  (https://ncdxf.org/pages/sfkey.html)  have been issued for
         both callsigns.  FT8 will be  prioritized  ("CW and SSB less impor-
         tant") and plans are to use  both FT8 SuperFox and multistream MSHV
         on  20, 17, 15, 12 and 10m  (same bands but different frequencies);
         on 160-30m only multistream MSHV will be used.  The Rebels plan  to
         set sail  for Rotuma  on 24 or 25 September, with the voyage taking

         October, and as K5M from Marsh Island (NA-120) on 7-8 October.  The
         latter operation will be conducted only during the day,  due to the

OH2AM's 60TH ANNIVERSARY ---> 19 September  marked the  60th anniversary  of
the OH2AM  station's debut  in the 1964  Scandinavian Activity Contest.  The
newly formed  OH-DX-Ring achieved remarkable success by  winning first place
in both multi-multi CW and Phone categories. The anniversary is commemorated
by the release of  Laura Piipari's new book, "Atlas of QSL Cards",  a fasci-
nating journey through the world of DX guided her late father's valuable QSL
card collection (https://atlasofqsl.com/). The OH2AM-60 Lottery, launched in
August,  concluded with ten winners (DL2TOS,  HA1DAE,  K6CZ, K8MFO,  LU6DOT,
OH2KI, OH4X, TA4RC, VE3ZZ and W5DV) receiving a  fresh-off-the-press copy of
the book. Among the Scandinavian stations participating in this weekend's CW
leg of the SAC, you will also hear the mothership OH2AM  and its modern ver-
sion OH8X from the Far North. [TNX OH2BH]
