NA-085. Bruce, K5TEN, will once again activate Dog Island (WW. Loc EL79) using the callsign K4D between June 2-13th. Dog Island, Florida, is an extremely rare IOTA because access is controlled by the 25 or so homeowners on the island. There are no hams on the island, and the only activations have been done by Bruce over the last 5 years. Access is by permission only and permission by one of the homeowners. It is only accessible by private charter or single engine fixed wing aircraft. The airstrip is overgrown so private charter is the only real choice. There are no streets, roads, stop signs, trendy cafes, or beach-front bars. If you need it, you bring it. Activity will be on 40-6 meters primarily on SSB and FT8 Digital mode using 100 watts an ICOM 7100 into an off center fed dipole. Bruce will be checking 10m and 6m often for Sporadic E. Look for him during daylight USA on 15 and 20 meters, nighttime 30 and 40m. He will also be active during the ARRL June VHF Contest.
