Jeff, TZ4AM will be back on the air from Mali from 22 October to 2 December. He will operate CW and SSB on 80-6 metres. QSL via LoTW, or direct to KX4R. This might be Jeff's final run from Mali. As the security situation continues to decline, he says, the primary chal- lenge remains the local economy.

The Pacific Islands DXpedition Group (PIDXG) and Youth on the Air (YOTA) have announced the VK9XY DXpedition to Christmas Island (OC- 002), running from 16 November to 4 December. Young operators have expanded their roles in recent years - advanc- ing from remote operations on Rotuma (3D2Y) to on-island team par- ticipation on Saba (PJ6Y) - and will now take full charge of plan- ning, leading, and operating the VK9XY DXpedition. The eight-person on-island crew will consist entirely of operators under the age of 25. Confirmed team members include N4ML (team leader), W4IPC, NT1S, LY7J, and 7Q6UJ, with the final roster spots set to be filled in the coming weeks. Veteran DXpeditioners W0GJ and W6IZT will provide on-site guidance and mentorship. The station plan calls for 4 local stations, two remote NexGenRiB2 stations operating over Starlink, and a portable QO-100 satellite station. Activity will be on 160-6 meters, and will include partic- ipation in the CQ WW DX CW Contest. QSL via M0OXO's OQRS. Fundraising efforts are underway to cover expenses for the young operators.
