They will operate CW, SSB and FT8 on 160-6 metres, plus RTTY on 20 metres, with at least four stations on the air simultaneously. QSL via EA5RM. See http://www.dxfriends.com/hd8r/ for more information, including band plan, logsearch and OQRS.

Aldo, IK2ANI will be active holiday style as ID9/IK2ANI from Panarea Island (EU-017) from 25 September to 1 October. He will operate SSB, CW, RTTY and some FT8 on 30-6 metres. QSL via LoTW, eQSL, or via home call (direct and bureau).

Take, JI3DST will be QRV as JI3DST/5 from Shodo Island, IOTA AS-200, from September 25 to 28. Activity will be on the HF bands and 6 meters using CW and SSB, and will be active as JR8YLY/p when running FT8. QSL to home call.
XW - Laos - 25.09.21
"My XW0LP licence comes up for renewal on 1 October", Simon posted to eham.net on 23 September, "and I applied to renew for all existing HF bands, but also 472 KHz, 60m (denied last time), and 6 metre band. However, it seems that the police/military have been in touch with the licencing department, and instructed that I should not be allowed to operate on any bands where ham radio is not the primary user.
What does this mean? Well, I am denied to operate on 472 KHz, 60m and 6 metre bands. But additionally, I will no longer be allowed to operate on the 80 metre and 30 metre bands, since ham radio is a secondary user on those bands in Region 3". Simon can still operate on 160, 40, 20, 17, 15, 12 and 10 metres, but he will have to cease activity on 80m and 30m at local midnight (17 UTC) on 30 September.
"Therefore, in order to provide as many QSOs as possible, from now until that cut-off time/date, I will ONLY operate on 80 and 30, using FT8 on the normal frequencies. I will monitor 80m during local night-time hours, and will monitor 30m during the local day and evening hours, i.e. from about one hour after local sunrise to about 15 UTC (or later if I can 'jump' between 30 and 80!). I will specially respond to calls from stations that I have not worked previously". QSL via LoTW, or via EA5GL.
