3G0XQ -- Press Release #3 -- San Ambrosio Island (CE0X - San Felix)

[Clark L. Stewart]

It looks like the operation from CEØX, San Felix, has been postponed to the September 2026 to March 2027 time frame.  This is the VERY rare entity that Charlie, N8RR, mentioned in his "N8RR Status" email yesterday.

3G0XQ -- Press Release #3 -- San Ambrosio Island (CE0X - San Felix)

>From San Ambrosio-Project (https://www.sanambrosio-project.com/)

(edited by OPDX):

PRESS RELEASE #3

This is to inform the DX community that I received today an official

response to request for landing and operating from San Ambrosio Island.

The relevant authorities communicated to me that they are looking into

processing my application for the 2026 fishing season, which runs from

September 2026 to March 2027.

In view of the above, the radio activity originally scheduled for Jan-

uary/February of this year must be regretfully postponed.

All the equipment intended for this operation is currently in standby

on Juan Fernández Is. (CE0/Z). The cargo remains secured and sheltered

on the premises of my local contact on the island, awaiting my arrival

and proper deployment.

I want to convey to the DX community that I remain fully committed to

bringing this rare DXCC entity, ranked #3 of the Most Wanted list, back

on the air. As such, I will continue to pursue this project with pro-

fessionalism and determination, seeking a successful outcome.

In regard to the support and donations received to date from sponsors

and several enthusiastic DXers, each of them will be individually con-

tacted and consulted as to the fate of their support/donation.

"It is a change of the main plann but I m still in the game"

Thank you!
