News from C21HA II.

Yesterday there was a nice opening to EU on the 14 and 17 meters bands. This morning we could log cc 500 NA and SA stations on 10 meter. CT and EA stations have reported that they could hear our signals on 12 meter around 22-23 UTC, but they could not get trough in the massive NA pile-up.

It is really amazing. This morning we could log some of them on 12 m. Big surprise. Top band: still very noisy. We could log only a couple of JA stations, KH2 and KL7 within one hour around the sunset. Difficoult to copy in the strong equatorial noise. This is the same on 80 meter. However we will check the band condition time by time.

Antenna works: we finalized the antennas set up. Only the daily maintenance is required.

Our mail box is flooded with request of log correction, sked and QSL request. Please do not send such a request till we are in the island. Any log correction request has to be addressed to HA5UK after the expedition.
