Subject: Press update:-Propagation to Lakshadweep *Press Release*
We are thrilled to announce that the AU7RS Lakshadweep DXpedition has been added to the VOACAP DX Charts! 🌴📡
This achievement is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team, and we are grateful to the VOACAP team for recognizing our efforts.
As a result of this inclusion, we now have a dedicated HF propagation prediction page for our operation, which can be accessed through the VOACAP Online DX Charts:
https://www.voacap.com/dx/au7rs/
This valuable resource will help our fellow DXers and amateur radio enthusiasts plan and optimize their contacts with us.
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to the VOACAP team for their support and for providing this valuable resource to the amateur radio community. In appreciation of their efforts, we will be displaying the VOACAP Online logo on our website.
The AU7RS DXpedition team is looking forward to making thousands of contacts and putting Lakshadweep on the air for the world. We wish all participating stations excellent propagation and a successful DXpedition.

Dear Dxers & IOTA Chasers
Further to our update yesterday regarding the AU7RS DXpedition, we are happy to inform you that we have received our permit through February 15th. We plan to extend this and make additional payments for our stay to provide as many operating days as possible.
Additionally, our permission from the WPC has been extended until February 25, 2026.. We intend to stay for as long as possible; we have kept our return tickets open and will continue to extend the expedition based on the support we receive.
Thank you for your continued support.
Best regards,
Sarath VU2RS
