OH0X PRESS RELEASE: Report received from Martti, OH2BH/OJ0X,
-- 73 Jarmo OH2BN
"MARKET REEF WITH NEW BLOOD - OCTOBER 4
It was at noon on Tuesday when the second and third week teams changed
on the fly and quickly put fresh energy and two signals on the air again,
now with a repaired Alpha 91B. It works! From now on OH1ND, OH2BH, SM0W
and SM6U are in command.
An exhausted team of OH1TV, OH2BAD, OH2BO and OH5BM was sent home to get
on with life as landlubbers again. Their 16.500 QSOs were added to the
Log Search facility at QRZ.COM, now totaling some 37,000.
With lots of IT expertise and new data equipment, it still seems that the
Internet is not reliable and more work needs to be done. The teams left
four people on the small island of Ensk=E4r between OH0 and OJ0 to install
a new cell site so traffic can be boosted for data and news delivery to
the outside world.
After running their first thousand QSOs, mostly on 15m SSB to Japan and
USA, the ops heated the island sauna behind the breakwater and enjoyd
their new remote life.
They now have three complete stations, squeezing all available power
from the wind generator charged plant. The overall target is set at
50,000 QSOs, and they have decided not to leave the reef before that
goal is accomplished.
The wind is gathering momentum but the team is safe."
