AS-186. A team of 9 Greek operators, all members of the Radio Amateur Association of Greece (RAAG), are planning to activate the Syrian Island of Arwad for the first time for the IOTA program for 10 days between November 1-15th. The callsign will be YK9SV.

Operators mentioned are: SV1GE, SV1IW, SV1JG, SV1RC, SV1RP, SV1QN, SV1ACK, SV1GYG and SV8CS. A special emphasis will be given to the lower bands and modes of SSB, CW, RTTY and PSK31.

Also, 6 meters activity is expected if propagation permits.
QSL YK9SV via SV1JG. This DXpedition is considered to be very expensive due to the special agreements needed for licensing, transportation, operation costs and support of the local Ham Radio Association.

The group is looking for your help and assistance in order to carry out their goal which is a successful operation. They primarily need amateur gear like radios, amplifiers, antennas, coaxial and/or financial support. More information will be available on their Web page at:

JO55LD), September 22-29th. Look for activity around the usual IOTA and Lighthouse frequencies. QSL via his home callsign.
