Jorge, OA4BHY, Daniel, DL5YWM, Rene, DL2JRM and Bodo, DL3OCH, will activate two rare Peruvian IOTA groups at the turn of the year.

They will be QRV from OA4O the clubstation of the "Radioclub Peruano" in Lima before their trip on Dec 26/27 as well as after the trip from Jan 8-12. From there they will also try to activate Peru on 23cm via EME for the first time ever.

Their island trip is planned like this (operation in CW/SSB)
CALL     DATE           ISLAND
OC6I     Dec 28-30    Isla Blanca (SA-098)
OC1I     Jan 1-7        Lobos de Tierra (SA-076)
The reference numbers for Isla Lobos de Tierra are PER-053 for the ARLHS and LH 1521 for the WLOTA.

They will work with two stations on 160-10m using an
IC-7000, an IC-706mkIIG, a TS-450SAT, a transverter for 23cm, several verticals (including one for 160m), a Spiderbeam, a FD4, a 59ele yagi for 23cm and yagi for 2m.

OA4/DL5YWM, OA4/DL3OCH and OA4/DL2JRM will be the callsigns used at the clubstation OA4O and the QSLs should be sent to the homecalls.

OC1I and OC6I are handled by DL5WM, direct or via bureau. If you request a direct QSL from outside Europe please be aware that return postage is about US$ 2.60 (two US Dollars are not sufficient anymore).
