XF2K - Isla Larga, Mexico

This QSL-card came in via direct from manager N6AWD.
This expedition was operated by XE2K, XE2S, XE2WWW, N6JV and AB5EB in Februar 2007.

Larga Island is located in the Laguna Madra region of Tamaulipas State, Mexico.
It is a low island of sand and seashells wich makes it an excellent location for radio propagation.
The Laguna Madre is the name of two long, shallow bays along the western coast of the Gulf of Mexico in the USA and Mexico; the two being separated by the outlet of the Rio Grande. Meaning “mother lagoon” in Spanish, the Laguna Madre proper is 130 miles (209 km) long, the length of Padre Island; its biological corridor, though, extends well into Mexico, to the mouth of the Río Soto la Marina in the state of Tamaulipas.
