[RTTY] VU4 - last 11 days

[Fred Souto Maior]

I don't think they are there to operate on all the
bands/modes each one of us need the Andamans.
They are there to give a new one for as many different
stations they can do.
You must also consider that they had short time to
prepare the trip and also not too much help (rigs/antennas/amplifiers etc)
as they needed.
In their oppinion PSK-31 is the first option not
RTTY and we must respect that.
I think they are doing the best they can, as they are
actives on all bands and modes, (I already worked them on cw/ssb/psk-31/sstv
and all bands I can work, except 30 meters beeing farway from them))for a
small group of
operators, without enough time/help to prepare the operation. And also I
think that you should keep that kind of rude and inopportune comment for
yourself.
Merry Xmas, Happy New Year, Thanks God you aren't a brazilian.
