[Mldxcc] VP8SGI info...

[Rick WA6NHC]

*February 5* – Today is day 8 at VP8SGI. We are pushing forward to our 
goal of 80.000 contacts from South Georgia Islands. The ten and twelve 
meter bands are very good today. Our biggest challenges are the high 
winds which are destroying antennas and tents and the many out of turn 
callers that continually call while we are trying to work others.

We are particularly frustrated by those EU callers that continue to call 
as we are trying to work to Asia/Japan. Please let´s all show our best 
Ham Spirit over the next three days so that everyone has a chance to 
work VP8SGI.

On Sunday, we will be seeking ATNO contacts on 17 meters SSB. We will 
QRT on Monday morning. Best wishes from the Intrepid-DX Group VP8 Team

EA5RM – VP8STI/VP8SGI Chief Pilot further mentions that, at this point, 
he wants to remind everybody that VP8 team members left their homes on 
January 7th, and they expect to return around February 22nd. More than 
45 days away, working and risking their lives in one of the hardest 
places in the World, trying to give us three new DXCC countries, two of 
them in the highest part on the most wanted list, in a project that 
exceeds $215.000. So please, lets help them to reach their aim following 
operator instructions and respecting other callers.

Paul will try to do first six meters QSO during their afternoon and 
evening time. Take a look to my spots on DX Cluster, he will call me by 
Sat phone few minutes before start to call on 50.110 Khz.
