Little Tinicum Island, PA045R
Oct. 27, 2007



On the Delaware River, approaching Little Tinicum Island by boat from the north, PA. is on the right, NJ is on the left.

Little Tinicum Island is located in the Delaware River, just below the Philadelphia airport. Noisy at times because it's right in the flight path of planes departing. This was the first time this island was activated and the first non-IOTA US Island trip for each participant. We went there during the CQWW SSB contest so making DX contacts was easy, we worked 21 countries.

Mike KF3CD, Paul WB3CEZ and Dieter K3DK, the tide was rising fast and the beach was disappearing so we had to leave earlier than planned.
