W2FBからのIOTA-chaser ForumでのYB-IOTA報告2点

この朝にIIHG(Indonesian Islands Hunter Group)を主宰するW2FB SteveよりIOTA-Chasers Forumに次の情報が投稿されました。

Hello island chasers,

Adhi wants to gauge the interest and demand for

OC262 He plans on operating from Sebesi Island (new point for Nusantara Indonesian Islands Award). THe last time 262 was active as YE5A Pulau Pisang.

OC186 Karimunjawa He plans to operate from a different island in the same group :Pulau Menjangan Besar. Earlier this year he was there but only made a hundred or so QSO with JA and EU.

His last two solo island expeditions were OC166 1450 QSO

and OC217 Saobi Island (Kangean Group) 1550 QSO

I will relay to Adhi, or maybe he will read this forum himself.

A more serious group expedition will be planned next year

hopefully to Banda OC157 and Masalembu OC250.

Ina YD1NAA will be in Tanjung Balai Karimun on the Karimun Besar Island OC075 for two months during work assignment. She will bring her rig and antenna and plans to be on mostly CW. She holds a novice license (YD) so she can only do CW on 15 and 10 I think, and CW and SSB on 40 and 80M. She is a great YL CW operator.

Hopefully she will find time to operate and activate this different island in OC075 for Nusantara Indonesian Islands Award. Most operation from OC075 have been from Batam or Bintan Island.

Good luck

一つはYB3MM Adhiさんの今後のプランです。かなりIOTAを意識していますが、本質はNusantara Awardです。OC-217 Kangean IslandもわざわざKangean本島からのQRVではなく、すでにKangean Islandでクレジット済みの局もあることから、Kangean諸島のSaobi Islandを狙って実施されました。これからも十二分に楽しめます。

もう一つは21MHzCWで昨年の末くらいから良く聞くYD1NAAによるOC-075を中心としたペディションの情報です。YB5NOF Johnさんとバッティングする可能性はありますが、インドネシアからの島移動が大きく活性化してきました。
