Bill,

I was relieved to get them on 30M RTTY on 21-Jan in the evening here in IL,
and it was new for me on RTTY, 30M, and 80M.

In general, they were tough to work, and I didn't get them on 160, 15, or
12, bands where I also needed them.  I had the entity confirmed previously
other DXpeditions.

I have antenna and noise issues, which no doubt contributed to my
challenges.

I very much appreciate their efforts, accomplishments, and the risks
involved and wish them well.

73, Jim N7US

I'm curious if anyone in the group was able to work VP8STI on RTTY? I was
lucky enough to get them on 15 CW for an all time new one but I never even
heard them on RTTY despite a number of spots and lots of listening.

According to W3UR of the Daily DX, they have now gone QRT due to a safety
issue with ice and potential risk to the Braveheart.
