St. Vincent Florida Island Expedition

The Panama City ARC will qualify St. Vincent Island, Florida on Sept 30 13:00 - 15:00 UTC. The call is W4RYZ. We will call CQ US Islands Florida New until 25 contacts. Then we will use FL006. The Island is also Parks On The Air KFF-0257. We will operate primarily 40 and 20 SSB. Other bands and modes will be used based on openings.Contact: Greg Lane at panamacityarc@gmail.com

Qualification means we are the first to operate from the island for the US Islands Awards Program. We have a team of at least seven club members. Access to the Island is only by boat. We will take the St. Vincent Island Shuttle.
