Island activities: IOTA NEWS. Since no or few new IOTA announcements have been made during the past several weeks (probably because of many COVID-19 travel restric- tions), OPDX decided to list the following IOTA operations that were active this past week between May 17-23rd (as per the DXCluster):

Roger, G3KMA, announced the following on the IOTA Web page, May 19th [edited]: Islands On The Air (IOTA) Ltd is delighted to announce the implementation of the ARRL application which allows the use of QSO matching via LoTW. We wish to thank ARRL for having made their application available. This will allow IOTA chasers to obtain credits by matching their logs with those at LoTW in addition to those at Club Log.
We have a lot of work ahead of us to identify the time windows of past IOTA operations and this will be phased in over the next few months.
An initial list of operations arising from the link-up with LoTW has been added to the database and these will become available for QSO matching from Thursday, May 21st. Further additions will be made on an ongoing basis.
We are sure that the IOTA community will welcome this development for which they have long been pressing. Instructions for LoTW QSO matching are found here, and notes on Accepted Activations here https://www.iota-world.org/info/accepted_activations-en.pdf NA-039. (Rescheduled) Members of the Russian Robinson Club will be
active as KL7RRC/P from Adak Island, Alaska, between September
11-18th (originally scheduled for June). Operators mentioned are Yuri/N3QQ, Robert/N7QT, Slav/OK8AU and Yuri/UA9OBA.
Activity will be on various HF bands using CW, SSB and FT8 (F/H), with
three stations on the air. QSL via N7RO. NA-070. (Rescheduled) Members of the Russian Robinson Club will be
active as KL7RRC/P from Kiska Island, Alaska, between September
5-10th (originally scheduled for June). Operators mentioned are Yuri/N3QQ, Robert/N7QT, Slav/OK8AU and Yuri/UA9OBA. Activity will be on various HF bands using CW, SSB and FT8 (F/H), with three stations on the air. QSL via N7RO. NA-085. Bruce, K5TEN, who usually activates Dog Island (WW. Loc EL79)
every year in June as K4D, has postponed his operation until September 9-18th. Dog Island, Florida, is an extremely rare IOTA because access is controlled by the 25 or so homeowners on the island. There are no hams on the island, and the only activations have been done by Bruce over the last 6 years.
Access is by permission only and permission by one of the homeowners.
It is only accessible by private charter or single engine fixed wing aircraft. The airstrip is overgrown so private charter is the only real choice.
There are no streets, roads, stop signs, trendy cafes, or beach-front bars. If you need it, you bring it.
This year's activity will only be on 40 and 20 meters primarily on SSB and FT8 Digital mode using 100 watts an ICOM 7100 into an off center fed dipole. QSL via K5TEN, SASE REQUIRED for stateside and DX (DX 2 USDs REQUIRED). Also, QSL via LoTW, eQSL and ClubLog. NA-158. Bryden, KC1KUG, will be active as KL7/KC1KUG from Fire Island,
Alaska, in the Cook Inlet Group, between June 2-27th. Activity will be mostly on 40/20 meters, possibly 80/30/17m, using mostly SSB, some CW or FT8. QSL via KC1KUG. PLEASE NOTE: Since the Webmasters of the new <www.iota-world.org> have decided NOT to post or dedicate a Web page to announce upcoming IOTA operations, PLEASE send your IOTA operations information to the OPDX, and we will post it here in an upcoming bulletin......
