The Radio Club Argentino (RCA), IARU National MS, announces that it will be active from Martín García Island (SA-055, ILLW AR-0022).
Operation is scheduled from August 16th to 20th, including the International Lighthouse Lightship Weekend.
Operators: Juan Ignacio LU8ARI, Fernando LU1ARG, Carlos LU1BCE, Diego LU2CDE, Juan Manuel LU4CJM, Claudio LW3DN and Gonzalo LU3BGG will put on the air the callsign LR5D.
Activity is planned 80 to 10 meters SSB, CW and DIG. QSL via QRZ.com.
The activation of an Island is always a good notice but, always the same Island ?.
In the SA 055 group there are others Island never activated, like Solís, Lucha, Oyarvide, etc…
In the Buenos Aires Province there are many Islands of the groups SA 021 and SA 022… Why not Wood, Trinidad, Ariadne, Bermejo, Gaviota, Embudo, Flamenco and other Islands ?
I think that the RCA can activate those Islands; its the bigger RC in Argentina with resources for make an activation different of Martín García Island, near BA.
Thanks a lot,
Martin
