Also note latest info on the ZS8Z expedition to Marion Island. This was supposed to take place on the 26th, but was apparently cancelled for that date. It is rescheduled for January, more on that one later. Info has it there is supposed to activation for 17 months. So my guess is it will be a spare time operation showing up now and then. Well, at least is some activity from that rare one.
