another permit to operate from the island. Hilbre Island lies 2 miles off The
Wirral Peninsula, and has been used over the centuries as a Monastery, a
Gentleman's Club, and a decoy in the war to fool aircraft to drop bombs in a
safer place! Martin and Kev hope to be on air from Friday, 21st October

allowing. With this activation taking place in Autumn, a special emphasis is
being placed on the lower bands, with 160 and 80 being run on alternate sunrise
and sunset. In May, the duo completed over 1500 contacts, and they hope to be
busy this time as Hilbre has never been activated on 160M. This operation will
try and run solidly through the night, with a mix of SSB, CW and RTTY. QSL is
via Charles, M0OXO who has kindly offered to be the manager once again. There
will also be a twice daily upload to LoTW and E-QSL, as long as an internet

MS0INT - Isle of Rockall, EU-189 (Expedition Postponed)
Much has happened since the first press release was issued on August 27th. A
few days later, we got word that the 2009 MM0RAI/p Rockall team were again going
to attempt an activation of EU-189 at the end of September. To cut a long story
short, IOTA chasers will be aware that the Belgian team did eventually activate
the island, with the aide of a converted navy rescue vessel and large
inflatables - we congratulate MM0RAI/p on their achievement as we all know how
heavy the seas can be out there in Autumn.
With careful consideration and much deliberation, we have decided to postpone
our intended activation of the islet for at least one year. This decision was
not taken easily considering our planning and organisational aspects were going
extremely well. Suffice to say, we believe an activation so soon after the
Belgian effort now makes Rockall a less attractive target - that is the crux of
our decision.
It is not lost on us that the majority of the world, outwith a proportion of
Europe, still require EU-189 for their IOTA scores. With that in mind, this
planned activity will not be cancelled, only postponed.
All donations will be refunded. We thank sincerely those kind operators and
groups who pledged financial support.
What we can say is that another excellent location/target is now being
organised. This involves a rare DXCC and IOTA. However, unlike MS0INT 2012
plans, we prefer to keep silent on this, and only release news and website one
week before departure, sometime in mid-2012.
Best regards
Team MS0INT
