4 new IOTAs to be activated

Between mid-March and early April, a team of amateur radio operators lead by Nils, SM6CAS, will activate four uninhabited IOTA islands (in the Southern Line Islands Group*) that have never been put on the air before.

Operators mentioned are:
Nils SM6CAS, Steve G4EDG, Mike K9AJ and Derek G3KHZ. Also a team of 5 Kiribati Government officers will be with them.

The team will sail on the "SV Kwai" from Kiritimati (Christmas Island) on approximately March 17th, returning to Kiritimati approximately April 18th.

The IOTAs mentioned to be aired are:
Malden Island (OC-279),
Starbuck Island (OC-280),
Caroline Island (OC-281) and
Vostok Island (OC-282).

Per their Web site (under construction), the team will operate from two sites (two stations each) and will operate on 40-10 meters using a variety of verticals and dipoles.
