Please keep in mind the weather in the UK appears to have a mind of its own, to say the least and to quote the Scottish poet Robert Burns, "The best laid plans o' mice and men, gang aft agley" In plain english, rain, storms, snow and even sometimes lack of transport at the last minute can cancel an operation.

WAB numbers can alter depending whether an island is in two or more squares and from which the operator is working, so please listen out for its confirmation.

I will update the 'Islands Ahead' list with the latest info as it comes to me, but remember that islands will appear at times from a spur of the moment decision or chance to get to it.

Most operations are on 80/40/20 metres. 3.772MHz is main frequency

IF YOU plan on activating an island let me know and I will put it on the 'What island is on next' list.
