ington DX Club (WWDXC) are organizing a DXpedition to the Tokelau
Islands (OC-048), currently Club Log's #42 Most Wanted (#24 EU).
The last DXpedition to Tokelau was ZK3A in 2019.
Written permission to enter the island is in-hand, and they are now
working with the government of Tokelau on logistics. The government
will coordinate travel to the island, operating location, sleeping
and meal arrangements.
The team of experienced DXpedition and contest operators include
K3EL, K5GS, KE4KY, KN2P, N7JP, N7QT, N9ADG, W1SRD, WA7CPA, WD5COV,
HA0NAR, IK0FVC, and ZL3CW. The group will depart Apia (Samoa) in
early November, arriving in Tokelau following a 30-hour ferry
crossing. They intend to remain on the island for 14 days. Plans
are to be QRV on 160-6 meters SSB, CW, and digital modes (RTTY and
FT8) from five operating positions. The callsign will be announced
at a later date. Bookmark https://tok-dx.com/ for more information

| February 2027 | 3Y0L: Peter I Island (AN-004) BOUVET 2026 & PETER I 2027 ---> 'The 3Y0K Bouvet 2026 team are still working
on the vessel and helicopter contracts and we are in the final stage before
signing the contracts. We are sorting out the last minute deals and are
still looking for some more operators for Bouvet and Peter I teams. Funding
of these two DXpeditions also heavily depends on us getting a full team of
operators onboard that contribute with their participation fee. Should you
wish to join our team, please contact admin[@]3y0.no or Cezar, VE3LYC.
We estimate to stay around the island for three weeks and the total duration
should be around 38 days to Bouvet and a little bit less to Peter I. We do
have all the helicopter and landing permits issued by NPI to go to onshore
Bouvet and Peter I with a full scale operation. Planning these two DXpedi-
tions is very time consuming where the logistics have to be coordinated with
other expeditions and that is why it takes time to sign contracts. Our plans
are to use the same vessel for both DXpeditions. First the vessel and crew
will take us to Bouvet where we will do landing with a helicopter, then our
equipment will later be shipped to South America and stored there before we
return one year later to go to Peter I Island scheduled for departure late
January 2027. Our plans are to go onshore Peter I with two helicopters first
week of February 2027. This way of running the DXpeditions is a huge
advantage for the #7 most wanted DXpedition to Peter I. Island'.

OE7PGI, Vlad OK2WX, Alex UR8UQ and Alex UR5UY.
The expedition plans to operate from South Georgia in March 2027, subject to
obtaining the necessary landing permits. The formal permit process will open
in 2026. While logistics support has been secured, collaboration with the
Government of South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands continues and is
progressing well. Bookmark https://www.ardxpeditions.com/dxpeditions/vp0sg
