MOST WANTED IOTA GROUPS

MOST WANTED IOTA GROUPS
THIS LISTING of ‘most wanted’ IOTA groups is provided for the benefit of intending DXpeditioners. It details for each such group, by continent, the percentage of participants on the central IOTA database who have it credited.
The information reflects the position as of 10 March 2011. It will change as cards are received and submitted for credit. At any time there will be operations that have only recently taken place, for which cards will not yet be in circulation. This explains why some groups are shown as having been worked by far fewer participants than expected, given the scale of the activity.
DXpeditioners should note that ‘rare’ groups, here defined as those which fewer than 15% of participants have credited to their IOTA scores, have been marked with a ‘#’ sign. For an operation from any of these groups validation data is required and will need to be sent to the IOTA Committee as soon as possible after the operation (see Section F.3 of the Rules).
