T32S & T32SNW: (OC-084)

These are the latest news from the T32 IOTA expedition.
Family reasons have caused Alfio, IT9EJW to drop out of the expedition, and the operators will be Nando, IT9YRE (T32S) and Claudio, I1SNW (T32SNW).
Neither Flint Island nor Millennium Island will be activated this year; their activity will take place from the rare Fanning Island (OC-084) instead.
They expect to arrive during the UTC night between 5 and 6 Cctober, operations are likely to start in the late afternoon/early evening hours (UTC) of the 6th.
Nando and Claudio plan to operate SSB (mainly on 15 and 20 metres) for 3-4 full days from Fanning; then they will return to Kiritimati (Christmas
Island) and operate holiday style for another 4-5 days before getting their flight back home on 17 October. QSL via home calls.
