    [edited] To the DX Community.... We are happy to announce that our 3Y0Z

    associated costs have been paid. Craig, K9CT, says he will get all the
    loaned items/equipment back to our sponsors quickly and those shipping
    costs will then be paid.
    From my perspective, we will then have all the expenses paid and can
    determine the amount of refund available to DX Clubs, DX Foundations,
    Individual supporters and our Team.
    As previously mentioned, there will be several options available for

    REALTIME BAND CONDITIONS WEB SITE <http://www.bandconditions.com>:
    The purpose of this experimental Web site is to provide 24-7-365 actual
    (REALTIME) band condition information to CW QRPp, QRPe and CW/SSB for
    Contesters interested in increasing their scores. It can also be of
    benefit to other Radio Amateurs to determine band conditions for Nets
    and casual QSO's. This information is NOT based on any software pre-
    dictions or any kind of satellite based readings. It is based on a
    new Ionospheric sounding method called "HF Ionospheric Interferometry"
    which operates very similarly to the PolSAR system used by NASA.
