OX3LX plans IOTA NA-151 trip to Christian IV Island, Greenland

Bo, OX3LX, says he plans to be on the air again from Christian IV Island off Greenland, which counts as NA-151 for the Islands on the Air program. The planned dates are October 24 to 29, 2026, and he gives the grid square as GP80KB.

Getting there is the hard part. Bo says the island can only be reached by helicopter and that weather can make the trip difficult, so the dates may change without notice.

IOTA is an awards program that groups the world's islands into numbered references such as NA-151, and island chasers work operators on those islands to build their totals. Grid hunters on VHF and above also track squares like GP80KB.

The summary available to us does not list bands, modes or a QSL route. If the trip goes ahead, watch the DX clusters from October 24 for spots of OX3LX, and keep in mind the schedule is weather dependent.
