DXCC prefix: RI1F - Franz Josef Land
The RI1F DXpedition team is now expected to leave Murmansk on 27 September, and to reach Victoriya Island [425DXN 1351] after three or four days, depending on sea conditions. R9LR plans to take VHF EME equipment with him for tropo and moon operation, as the 4-6 October timeframe "should be good for it". Logsearch on Club Log has been activated (search for RI1F/EU-190). This island is a "new one" for IOTA (EU-190), but DXCC wise is part of Franz Josef Land. Bookmark www.qrz.com/db/ri1f for updates.information from: http://www.425dxn.org
