100 Pound DXpedition logoGeorges Island (NA-148) will be activated this weekend by B. Scott Andersen, NE1RD. Located at N42 19′ 09.96″ W70 55′ 37.14″, the island is comprised of 30 acres with Fort Warren, a Civil War era bulwark against the sea, dominating its center. Andersen hopes to set up a portable station around the periphery of the fort.
