Island DXpedition to Iran in January
The Rockall DX Group are planning a new challenge for January—activating Kish Island, Iran, which is IOTA AS-166 and number 33 on ClubLog’s DXCC Most Wanted list.
EP6T should be on the air from 16 January, operating from 160m to 10m.
Emphasis will be on 160m, and the operation is expected to continue until 26 January.
According to the ARRL, of Iran’s 80 million citizens only 13 are licenced amateurs, although 60 students have recently passed their exams and should be able to receive an EP callsign in the near future.
Details of the EP6T DXpedition can be found at www.rockall.be.
