OE2SNL and VE7AB have left the island due to earlier
commitments. Only ZS1FJ and VE7NY are
operating with the other two members providing logistics and video support. ·
No more RTTY operations are taking place. ·
The two operators are straining under pressure and
are on the air almost all day. ·
The pileups are huge and the operators are doing their
best to give everyone a contact.
Special attention is given to weak stations on difficult paths. ·
The SteppIR BigIR and CrankIR verticals are
excellent. ·
The SVDA verticals on the beach are amazing and
outperform the SteppIR beam by around two S‑points most of the time. ·
The Kenwood TS-480 transceivers are superb and the
MFJ ALS-600 amplifier a real workhorse. ·
The team will begin taking down antennas late on
Monday and leave the island on Tuesday with Chatham Airlines. 28.03.2014 at 10:00Z ·
Many stations have requested to check the log for
incorrect entries. These requests are
sent to the QSL manager for his attention after the expedition. ·

the expedition log and cannot verify log entries by email. 25.03.2014 at 23:00Z ·
