[UK-CONTEST] OT-Dxpedition

[Clive Whelan]

Please excuse the bandwidth to publicise this expedition.

A group of GWs will activate the Llamedos Islands off the coast of 
Pembrokeshire for one day only ( today). The islands consist of two 
rocky outcrops exposed only for a period of ten days following the 
Spring equinox, and have been  named Nalyd and Samoht after famous  
Welsh authors of the past. Unlike Ynys Môn the islands are sufficiently 
distant from the coast of Pembrokeshire to qualify for IOTA status and 
application has been made to the RSGB for their accreditation 

The islands are known nesting and breeding grounds for Ospreys and Blue 
Seals, so some disruption may be inevitable.

QSLs may go via the bureau or direct to GW9BF QTHR.

A loaf of lava bread is offered to the first UK station to work the 
expedition on all 17 bands ( 160m to 10Ghz)
