Craggy Island Dxpedition Group - EJ0TED
A number of members of the Galway VHF Group have recently formed the ‘Craggy Island Dxpedition Group‘.
The group has been allocated the callsign EI0TED which of course will be EJ0TED when operating from offshore Islands. If there are more than two operations the Galway VHF Group Callsign, EI4ALE, will also be in use.
Weather permitting, it is hoped that there will be frequent excursions to offshore Islands over the coming year. An action plan for this is being developed and will be announced through the IRTS News Services and also on the Galway VHF Group news blog at www.galwayvhfgroup.com
Much of the equipment has now been procured for the Island operations but the group is still waiting on a lighteight beam and a small Honda generator to complete the list.
These operations will contribute towards the Worked All Ireland award scheme and also the WAI Islands award – where possible, there will be operation from all squares on each Island. The IOTA contest is also on the cards this year.
