is granting $100,000 to the 3Y0J Bouvet Island DXpedition planned for Novem-
ber 2022. This is an all-time high donation and matches the previous dona-
tion given to Bouvet projects.
"The DXpedition will be carried out by 'Amateur Radio DXpeditions', a Norwe-
gian non-profit organization created for the purpose of conducting DXpedi-
tions", the team wrote in their latest presse release (30 August).
"With an overall budget of $650,000 this will be the most expensive DXpedi-
tion ever. With the NCDXF donation we hope to succeed in the fundraising as
our first payment milestone for the vessel contract is approaching. By end
October we will pay 30% of the vessel contract, and by that time we must
have regained confidence that we can succeed financially. We critically need
upfront donations to be able to make it. While we have a solid plan, a young
and strong team, a dedicated crew and vessel 'Marama' - we need your upfront
support to go there and make 120,000 QSOs from Cape Fie at Bouvet".

transfer - see http://www.3y0j.no for the details.
