Hello dear fellow Topbanders,

Happy New Year to everybody.

The 3D2DK operation is sofar over and the crew should be on the way
to T2 by now. Up to Dec. 31st 16:37:10 UTC out of the 11342 QSO's in total
after 7.5 days of operation 369 QSO have been made on topband, 
unfortunately not even one with Europe. The 80m result in comparism:
627 total, 224 with Europe.

Nevertheless the crew is still in high spirit and will try to reach Europe
whenever possible. The missing main antennas did arrive after one week of
delay, a replacement PA for the broken FinnFET has been brought in by 
OH1MA&OH1RY and all technical problems seem to be solved by now.
The planned efficient parallel work on the lowbands is now no problem 
anymore.

Keep the fingers crossed that they savely arrive in Funafuti.

73,

Joerg YB1AQS for the crew
