NEWS UPDATE by Team 3D2RRR:
After some 50 hours the team reached 20k QSOs already. High wind and rain prevents making antennas for 80 and 160m. Propagation: 10-12 meters – phenomenal, 15m – super, 20-17m – worse than above. 20m FT8 issue with laptop charger making noise and prevented hearing anything on 20m for some longer time but finally resolved. Changed the charger no more problems there. We hope to start 40m and 6m today. 80 and 160 possibly tomorrow weather permitted. We work FT8 using wsjtx ver.2.5 and always send RR73. Planning to be active till June 5 depending on weather forecast for return voyage to Fiji.
