Dear editor/colleague,
For immediate release:
  
New IOTA on Ice DXpedition
Inakari Island coordinates: Lat: 65° 41' 49.4460" Lon: 24° 10' 5.0460"
We are proud to announce that a new IOTA island will be activated for the
first time by a small international team during this very cold winter with
local temperatures on the island dropping to around -20C (-4F).

Kataja/Inakari Island has been added to the list by the IOTA Committee in
October 2018 as EU192. Martti-OH2BH, Nigel-G3TXF, Niko-OH2GEK and Gerben-
PG5M will be travelling by snow mobiles several kilometers out over the
frozen seas of the Bothnian Bay to set up camp on Inakari Island, the
Finnish part where they will use an abandoned fisherman’s refuge. As
Inakari Island is part of the Bothnian Bay National Park the party need
to obey several related restrictions, but they have been successful in
dealing with them all.

80-40-30-20-17-15 meters, operating CW and SSB. Call sign is OH10X and

on the conditions on the island.
 
Regards,
