Title : Activation of Baiyah (AF-111)
Description : From 31-Oct-2017 12:00 UTC until 03-Nov-2017 12:00
UTC, the callsign 5L3BI will be activated by EI2BG, EL2DT, EI5GM,
EI9FBB, MM0NDX. QSL Information - via M0OXO. In collaboration
with the Liberian Radio Amateur Association, a team consisting
of Richmond EL2BG, Dickson EL2DT, Jeremy EI5GM, Dave EI9FBB and
Col MM0NDX are delighted to announce the much anticipated IOTA
DXpedition to Baiyah Island AF-111P. This IOTA has never before
been activated. Planning and organising this expedition has taken
well over a year and is still ongoing. One reconnaissance trip
has already taken place to ascertain where the island actually is,
and to meet with local elders & community leaders who control
Baiyah Island. The island itself is a cultural sacrifices location
for people in the Tarsue Chiefdom. Baiyah island is known as the
place where people in nearby villages carry out their traditional
worship. As a result, no one normally goes there without proper
arrangement and approval. Our website is now up and running,
and in a few weeks time, a second survey trip is upcoming once our
finances allow. We need to pinpoint the best landing stage on the
island and to reacquaint with local villagers and elders. This
entire operation is only possible with their blessing! Time on
the island will be limited and definitely weather dependent. We
are under no illusion this activity could be tricky. One only has
to look at the Media Gallery on our website to see the island is
not very inviting. Nonetheless, we carefully chose early November
(dry season) to attempt an activation of AF-111. We have requested
the special callsign 5L3BI and are hopeful the Liberian Telecoms
Authority will approve and issue this to us soon. Tentatively,
dates of activity will be around November 1-4, 2017. This may change
slightly but we will update in due course regarding that. Even at
this early stage, demand to work AF-111 will be huge and we kindly
ask you work us only once to give all IOTA chasers a fair chance of
getting in the log. Costs are ever growing and we do seek support
and sponsorship to help offset some of our high expenses. Visit our
website to support us. https://af111new.com/ Thank you. Next news
release early August.. For more information, see the website:
