One
of the main purposes of the Islands on the Air (IOTA) program is to promote
activity on the bands, not just on HF but on VHF and UHF. It’s also for
clubs and individual operators.
IOTA is an outstanding program for the activator, chaser, and contester as well.
Coming up this weekend is the 2017 version of the RSGB IOTA Contest. The contest starts at 1200 UTC on July 29th, and ends at 1200 UTC on July 30th.
This years rules can be found HERE.
Let's all hope that the propagation Gods are in a good mood and allow the bands to open and play nice for us all over the weekend. It's about time we had some cooperation from them.
