My good friend Rick (second from left in image) has announced via his website some IOTA activity in the next few months;

”Between 1 JUNE 2016 and 30 AUGUST 2016, I intend to activate several more KL7 IOTAs. But each NA-xxx IOTA # will remain a “MYSTERY” until AFTER the Expedition is completed. You MUST check this webpage for details and Confirmation of QSO instructions, which will then include the specific date(s) of QRV and IOTA # needed to solve each “Mystery”.

Stay tuned…..
