T31A team should be on the way after a three day boat delay. The boat left
Friday and its 4 days sailing, so they should arrive sometime on Tue. or Wed.
Mike N9NS, the 60m operator on the trip, will do what he can to get this new one
on the air for us. <SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I am not sure if
they’ll be on after this boat delay. Time permitting, and if antennas can
be properly placed so as to not interfere with other bands or take away
from significant QSO rates on other bands, they will TRY to activate 60m.
CW and SSB positioning is carefully being planned, and 60m will be squeezed
in the site setups. Their sunset is 0548z and sunrise at
1736z</SPAN></EM><EM><SPAN
