      12 Feb 2006 0110UTC:  Just to bring you up to date, yesterday morning
at 0230UTC the helicopter began flying again and brought ashore 8-9 loads
and our three orphaned Team Members.  Starting again at 0900UTC, he starting
bringing the final 5-6 loads and finished around 1500UTC.  At that time we
finally had a full complement of people, equipment and supplies.  In the
last load was the Job Johnny (outhouse) which was very gratefully received!
      Here's a rundown on the antennnas in operation now:


        a.. Battle Creek Special for 160
        b.. Wire antenna for 80
        c.. Wire antenna for 75
        d.. Two 40M verticals
        e.. 20M vertical
        f.. 17M two-element vertical
        g.. 30M vertical
        h.. Two SteppIR 2El yagis for 10-20M
      Tomorrow we'll have another 30M vertical and the two remaining SteppIR
2el yagis up.
      We presently have six stations on the air and tomorrow afternoon will
have all eight.

      Today we had beautiful views of the Mountain; hopefully the weather
will continue to clear.

      Note: We are presently adding the rest of the computers to the LAN so
there will be some delay in getting the logs uploaded; please be patient
with us.  The main web page always indicates the latest logs available so
that should be your trigger to check to see if you're in it.

      73 from the Peter I Team!
