Apart from the ID9 (Eolie, EU-017), IE9 (Ustica, EU-051), IF9 (Egadi, EU-054), IG9 (Pelagie, AF-019) e IH9 (Pantelleria, AF-018) islands, the "other" islands may be assimilable to Sicily (EU-025) or, if qualifying, they may be included in the "coastal islands" group (EU-166). In this latter case, they must meet Rule 1, directly or through the alternative paths of qualification, and Rule 2 (obviously Sicily has to be considered as the "mainland" from which an island must be at least 200 metres far). (2) The papers at my current disposal do not show the presence of any island or rock officially named "Capobianco". However there is a Capo Bianco, from which the long Trapanelli dike, linking Pedagna Grande (BR-001) to the mainland, leads off. There is also an anonymous islet located on the outer side of Pedagna Grande. Therefore we cannot discard the hypothesis that this islet might have been unofficially named "Capobianco": if that is the case, it would meet both Rule 1 (thanks to the alternative paths of qualification) and Rule 2, and consequently it would count for EU-091 as well. (3) Though conforming to Rule 1, Sant'Andrea Island in Brindisi province (not to be mistaken for the homonymous island in Lecce Province) does not count for IOTA. In fact the distance between the island and the mainland, to which Sant'Andrea is linked by a causeway and/or a bridge, seems to be less than 500 metres. That means that the island does not meet Rule E.8.2 and therefore it cannot count for IOTA. (4) All Sardinian islands count for IOTA one way or another. With regard to the islands located in the IIA "Cagliari" group, they may be assimilable to Sardinia (EU-024) or, if qualifying, they may be included in the "coastal islands" group (EU-165). In this latter case, they must meet Rule 1, directly or through the alternative paths of qualification, and Rule 2 (obviously Sardinia has to be considered as the "mainland" from which an island must be at least 200 metres far). (5) The poor readibility of the only map at my disposal prevents me from calculating the distance from the coast. It is furthermore possible that the bay delimited by Capo Malfatano (west) and Capo Spartivento (east), in which the island lies, is a "largely enclosed bay" (i.e. with an opening that is less than 5 kilometres wide, see IOTA Directory E.7.3). That, apart from any other consideration, would make Tuaredda a non-counter for EU-165. (6) Formerly allocated to Le Castella, which has been given the new IIA Reference Number KR-001 accordingly to its passing into Crotone province, CS-004 has been declared "vacant" and afterwards issued to Scogli Coreca. (7) From the papers at my current disposal it appears that the so-called Isole dei Ciclopi (Cyclopes Islands), which meet Rule 1, include seven rocky formations. These are in their turn gathered in two groups, whose IOTA status depends on their distance from the mainland: the first group counts for EU-166 and includes Lachea Island (or Isola di Aci), Isola dei Ciclopi (Cyclopes Island, or Il Faraglione) and two anonymous rocks located between them; the second group includes other three rocks, which, being much closer to the mainland, count for EU-025. (8) Formerly allocated to Scoglio San Leonardo, which has been given the new IIA Reference Number VV-001 accordingly to its passing into Vibo Valentia province, CZ-002 is currently vacant. (9) The IIA Reference Number GO-027 had been allocated to the island of Bioni, which however it has been ascertained to be located in Udine province (see UD-001). Consequently, GO-027 has been declared "vacant" first, and then given to the island of Ara Storta (see UD-002). /EX SB DX@WW $425WW270D 425 DX News #270 [4/7] 6 July 1996 No 270 BID: $425WW270D =========================== *** 4 2 5 D X N E W S *** =========================== ** I.I.A. - NOTES [2/3] ** =========================== (10) GO-028 is the new IIA Reference Number that has been given to the island of Marina di Macia, which it has been ascertained to be located in Gorizia province. Consequently, UD-001, formerly allocated to this island, has been declared "vacant" first, and then given to the island of Bioni. (11) Isola Rossa is situated in front of Argentario, in Grosseto province, but had been given by mistake the IIA Reference Number LI-021. It has been therefore necessary to give a proper Reference Number to it (GR-015). Consequently, LI-021 been declared "vacant" first, and then given to the Scoglietti di Capraia. (12) Unfortunately the only map at my current disposal is not enlightening. However, comparing this map with the little other information I have (according to it the island is placeable to the south of Isola della Scogliera and opposite Punta La Strega), Isola del Capezzone might meet both Rule 1 (through the alternative paths of qualification) and Rule 2, thus qualifying for EU-091. (13) The ancient part of the small town of Gallipoli stands on an island linked to the mainland by a causeway and/or a bridge. The distance between the island and the coast is clearly below the minimum required in such cases (see IOTA Directory, E.8.2). Therefore Gallipoli, though likely to meet Rule 1, does not qualify for IOTA. (14) The two entries - "Scoglio della Meloria" (LI-004) and "Torre della Meloria" (LI-030) - clearly refer to two different IIA "entities" which are both situated in the area of the famous omonymous shoals. Torre (Tower) della Meloria (i.e. the old lighthouse, originally built in the XII century and afterwards repeatedly destroyed and reconstructed) admittedly meets Rules 1 and 2, but since it has been built on a reef, it might fall within the cases provided for by paragraph E.8.3. The IOTA status of the so-called Scoglio della Meloria is even more dobtful. The Meloria Rock is most likely to be identifiable with the stony platform on which the new lighthouse has been built. However this islet, though meeting Rules 1 and 2, seems to be an "artificial" island, i.e. a non-counter for IOTA (see IOTA Directory E.7.7). (15) The definition "Scogli di Vada" can apply to a group of coastal rocks, also known as "I Catini", which do not qualify for IOTA. It can also apply to the possible rocks located within the omonymous shoals, expecially to the low rocky bank on which a lighthouse has been built. In this latter case, the lighthouse meets Rules 1 and 2, but its IOTA status must be determined taking into consideration paragraphs E.7.7 and E.8.3. (16) The IIA Reference Number ME-028 had been allocated to an "Isola Galeotta" which apparently does not exist in the Eolie islands (but there is a Galeotta in the Egadi islands, which has been regularly given the IIA Reference Number TP-005). It is therefore reasonable to suppose that this name refers to Scoglio Jalera, a satellite of Stromboli (not to be mistaken for Scoglio Galera ME-020, which is a satellite of Alicudi). (17) Though meeting Rule 1 and being some 500 metres far from the mainland, the island of Nisida does not qualify for IOTA because the long masonry bridge, which links Nisida to the coast, does not let water "to flow at all times" (see IOTA Directory, E.8.2). /EX SB DX@WW $425WW270E 425 DX News #270 [5/7] 6 July 1996 No 270 BID: $425WW270E =========================== *** 4 2 5 D X N E W S *** =========================== ** I.I.A. - NOTES [3/3] ** =========================== (18) All Sardinian islands count for IOTA one way or another. With regard to the islands located in the IIA "Nuoro" and "Oristano" groups, they may be assimilable to Sardinia (EU-024) or, if qualifying, they may be included in the "coastal islands" group (EU-165). In this latter case, they must meet Rule 1, directly or through the alternative paths of qualification, and Rule 2 (obviously Sardinia has to be considered as the "mainland" from which an island must be at least 200 metres far). (19) Though meeting Rule 1 and being some 250 metres far from the coast, Isola di Capo Passero appears to be linked to the mainland by a sandbar, which prevents the island from qualifying for EU-166 (see IOTA Directory, E.6.7). (20) Pilots report that the island of Vendicari, though meeting Rule 1 and being some 300 metres far from the coast, is linked to the mainland by a sandbar, which prevents the island from qualifying for EU-166 (see IOTA Directory, E.6.7). (21) The IIA "Maddalena" group includes one IOTA "officially recognised island group" (see IOTA Directory, E.5.1), i.e. the Maddalena Archipelago (EU-041), plus a number of coastal islands. Some of these latter are considerably far from the archipelago, but at all events they are subjected to the township of La Maddalena. With regard to their IOTA status, Capo Ferro has been taken as the eastern border of the area covered by EU-041: consequently the islands located south-east of Capo Ferro - which, for the sake of convenience, could be defined as "Emerald Coast islands" - have been taken into consideration in order to determine whether they qualify or not for the "coastal islands" group (EU-165). Therefore the islands belonging to the IIA "Maddalena" group can be included, according to single cases, into EU-024, EU-041 or EU-165. (22) All Sardinian islands count for IOTA one way or another. With regard to the islands located in the IIA "Sassari" group, they may be assimilable to Sardinia (EU-024) or, if qualifying, they may be included in the "coastal islands" group (EU-165). In this latter case, they must meet Rule 1, directly or through the alternative paths of qualification, and Rule 2 (obviously Sardinia has to be considered as the "mainland" from which an island must be at least 200 metres far). (23) Apart from any possible compliace to Rules 1 and 2, this island is located in a "largely enclosed bay" (see IOTA Directory, E.7.3) and therefore it cannot be taken into consideration in order to determine whether it counts for EU-165. (24) Scoglio Tontonara, which had been given the IIA Reference Number SV-004, was been deleted from the IIA island list. Consequently, SV-004, which had been declared "vacant", has been allocated to Scoglio delle Donne. (25) The IOTA status of Asinelli Island has been considered in order to determine whether Asinelli qualifies for the "coastal islands" group (EU-166). In fact the island is not part of the Egadi Archipelago, nor it is located in an area that can be defined as "pertaining" to the archipelago (that is the case of Scogli Porcelli, TP-008). Consequently, Isola Asinelli, which had been formerly included in the IIA "Egadi" group, has now been listed in the IIA "Sicilia" group. (26) The IIA Reference Number UD-001 had been formerly allocated to the island of Marina di Macia, which however it has been ascertained to be located in Gorizia province (see GO-028). Consequently, UD-001 has been declared "vacant" first, and then given to the island of Bioni (see GO-027). (27) The IIA Reference Number UD-002 had been formerly allocated to the island of Ara Storta, which however it has been ascertained to be located in Gorizia province (see GO-027). Consequently, UD-002 has been declared "vacant" first, and then given to the island of San Pietro. /EX SB DX@WW $425WW270F 425 DX News #270 [6/7] 6 July 1996 No 270 BID: $425WW270F =========================== *** 4 2 5 D X N E W S *** =========================== ******* W.A.B.A. ****** =========================== Worked Antarctic Bases Award by Diamond DX Club Call ....
