KP4 Ruben, DL4VCR (ex JY8CR), tries to be active as KP4CR in March. Starting on April 7 he plans to be on the air with a XE2-call.
Silent Key Sid, VK2SG, editor of the RTTY DX notes became a silent attack at the age of 76 due to a heart attack. Sid hold the RTTY-DXCC no. 1 in VK.
T30DP/T31 This station has been spotted on several bands since January 2. T30DP announced to be active as T31DP on 20 meters only starting on January 9. T30DP/T31 was QRV on 40m, 30m, 20m and 17m, always with a good signal and (like some OMs state) from a completely different antenna direction. So be aware that this could possibly be the activity of a slim. Work first, worry later!

W0CD, K8GG and W8UVZ will take part as PJ9Z (QSL via W8UVZ). - XU6WV (OP VS6WV) wants to improve his 40m/80m antenna and tries to match it on 160 meters. - Rolf, XV7SW, has new inverted L antennas for 80 and 160 meters. - V85HG announced to be QRV outside of the Japan International DX Contest on 1820-1825 kHz.
