In
September 1999 Malcolm K. Johnson, VK6LC will be ready
for a multi-national DXpedition to a very remote place,
NEW ONE for IOTA (the unnumbered IOTA group is WESTERN
AUSTRALIAN OUTLIERS). the Rowley Shoals are located in
the Indian Ocean, 180 nautical miles west of Broome in
the tropical far north of Western Australia. They are
large emergent morphological shelf atolls arising from
depths of between 300 and 700 metres along the edge of
the continental shelf. The Rowley Shoals consist of three
atolls that lie north-south in latitude. The most
northern is Mermaid Reef, 29 km to the centre is Clerke
Reef and 42 km to the south is IMPERIEUSE REEF (17.35S-11.55E),
the place where the DXpeditioners will land. The shoals
were given their collective name in 1818 by Capt. P.P.
King, who first described their relative positions. He
named the three atolls Mermaid after his ship, Clerke (after
Clerke, who reported it from a whaler between 1800 and
1809) and Imperieuse after the vessel from which it was
sighted by Capt. Rowley in 1800. Imperieuse Reef is
approximately 18 km long and 10 km wide. The only portion
maintaned above the high water mark is Cunningham Island,
a sand cay Approximately 800 metres long and 250 metres
wide. It is positioned at the north tip of the reef and
it is where an automatic light and weather station is
located.
Malcolm needs
