CDXC, the UK DX Foundation, has made a major donation to the newly formed Islands on the Air (IOTA) Ltd. The donation, announced at the July CDXC Annual General Meeting, will support IOTA Ltd’s purchase of its new IT system.

“As many of our members are keen IOTA chasers, we believe this donation will help IOTA Ltd deliver their important new IT system, and adds to CDXC's support and sponsorship of IOTA DXpeditions,” said CDXC Chairman Chris Duckling, G3SVL. IOTA Manager Roger Balister, G3KMA, expressed appreciation for the grant.

“This will go a long way to help us reach our target,” he said. One of the first actions of IOTA Ltd was to expand the application routes on IOTA’s existing software to include ClubLog QSO matching.

IOTA said this is the first step toward introducing a much broader system of paperless QSLing scheduled for launch next spring.
