Sebatik Island OC-295 3 – 5 June

John, 9M6XRO, and Steve, 9M6DXX, will be visiting Sebatik Island

(OC-295) from 3 to 5 June and may be active as 9M6XRO/P (CW) and 9M6DXX/P (SSB) using 100W to a simple wire antenna, although no operation is guaranteed on this occasion. The visit is in preparation for a possible DXpedition there later in the year with higher power and better antennas. OC-295 has only been activated once before, in July 2006, and remains high up the IOTA ‘Most Wanted’ list.
QSL both callsigns via M0URX, direct, or OQRS for Bureau or LoTW.


John and Steve tell me that this trip is very much a reconnaissance trip for a expedition possibly later in the year.

73, Steve, 9M6DXX
