- Retention of EU-155 in IOTA list in doubt
- The IOTA Manager was informed at Ham Radio 2011 Friedrichshafen that the two barrier islands listed as qualifying for EU-155, Baron and Scanno di Piallazza, no longer exist. Authoritative information has now been provided by a local operator to show this probably to be the case. It is worth noting that the Po Delta is a remarkably fragile natural environment with barrier reefs, as and when they occur, subject to change by tide and storm. IOTA rules require that, in the absence of qualifying islands, the group concerned should be suppressed. One final check will be made on the latest satellite pictures expected shortly following which a decision will be taken and a notice issued. In the meantime, no new operations claiming to take place from EU-155 will be regarded as qualifying for credit.
