Hello Guys,

upcomming weekend we have the ISLAND FESTIVAL again.
Last year there were about 60 different islands active.
(iota/iwi etc)

The counter is already between 40/50 and im guessing it will hit above 60 this year.

All information can be found here:
Island Festival | The original Island Festival

Islands im going to activate with a couple friends:
island festival | CB Antennas

Hope to work a couple forum members....who knows...perhaps a double sproadic E hop to the US ?

Kind regards,

Henry 19SD348

Guys this is a great opportunity to rack up some rare islands......possible new countries.
 
Hello Guys,

Thanks for your enthousiasme, it is indeed lots of fun !

Freq's tend to be between 27.4 and 27.7 mHz, all in USB.
However, it is possible to hear some in other modes and away from that freq bandwidth.

Wise would probarbly be to lissen on 27,555 (int call freq) and move away (qsy) with the station calling.

Kind regards,

Henry
