MM0BQI and GB5SI from Summer Isles EU92 IOSA SC10  IO78 WAB NB90     If you work me on EU92 during the IOTA contest or in the following week this is where I will be operating from. The site is on the top of a sea cliff about 50m high with clear take off in most directions.

The photo is taken on the site of the HF2V for 80/40m. This will have elevated radials and additional top loading to make it look more like a quarter wave on 80m and broaden the bandwidth.

The rest of the antenna farm will be as follows from left to right

 80/40m dipoles at 10m agl running NE/SW to take advantage of inter UK QSOs.

Tribander for 10/15/20 at 10m AGL

HF6V 5 band vertical at 5m AGL with tuned elevated radials

Inside the shack I will be running a SO2R setup with the FT1000MP as the SSB run radio and the IC746 as the mult hunting CW rig and band checker.  Logging will be SuperDuper for IOTA which works great with the 2 radio setup.  Outwith the contest I will be operating 2/3 hours per day, 80-6m, SSB, CW, RTTY, PSK and maybe some SSTV with pictures of the Island.

QSL as always is 100 % SURE via the Bureau or if you are in a hurry direct is fine also.

Please call me during the contest and I look forward to a much longer QSO during the week
