[Mldxcc] Bouvet Island 3Y0Z update

[Gary Johnson]

I did hear them around sunset here on 40 several days ago and they might 
have been workable from my tiny station. Of course they QRTed as soon as 
I sat down... We tried to find them on Saturday from N6RO but no copy on 
20, 40, or 80. DXworld updates say they have lots of local noise 
problems and keep shutting down with little notice. Also only have one 
amplifier. 2 days to go.

K3EST wonders why they went to Somalia rather than Somliland. Same DX 
prefix but much safer and better in just about every way.
