East Timor pilot station report 0608

The guys are still surviving in the small ham shack and the good news is
they now have the antenna's all up and feel like they are now just starting
the DXpedition.

The following contacts were made during the last 24 hours on Top Band.

VK2OI         After the log search page is up on their Website, we will
VK3EW         no longer post these on the reflector.  If you want to 
N7WO          subscribe to WC7N's reports, drop Rod an e-mail message
N7UA          at   wc7n@wave.net  
N7RO          Webpage is at Webpage at  http://www.qth.com/k7bv/timor/
W7NNT         Log search soon at  http://www.qth.com/k7bv/timor/LOGSEARCH/      
(+ 18 JA's)                                          ...de W4ZV

Keep in mind that this may not be complete and if your call is missing
either work them again or wait until the logs show up on the web page.

AT 1730z They were headed back to 160 meters hoping to add many EU's to the
TopBand log.

They are still working to try and get E-mail access so that the logs can be
passed and posted on the web site.  Hopefully more on that tomorrow.

Information on various band opening and suggested times that I have received
either by E-mail or over the phone were passed to the guys.  Also the many
good comments were passed and appreciated by both Dick and Dennis.

Next time you jump in the nice warm shower remember Dick and Dennis.
Dennis, yesterday obtained a bucket of fresh water and dumped it over his
head and Dick, clothes and all, just walked into the ocean to try and get
rid of some of the grim.

If you have any comments or suggestions please don't hesitate to forward
them to wc7n@wave.net and I will make sure they get passed to the Gents.
