PNG trip update

Hi friends,

We decided to make today, Saturday our last night on Taku'u, OC-283. Hans, SM6CVX has a 160m dipole and 500W ready to try tonight. There are about 8,500 QSOs in the log before we start our last session. Moving off tomorrow morning (our time) should allow two days on Kilinalau. It will be a trip of 18 hours and we hope to be QRV from OC-256 the day we arrive.

We have 4 rigs, one for each of us. Everyone operates for as long as he can but eventually fatigue takes over and we are sorry for some mistakes we make when we start falling asleep while operating!

73 from Derek, Steve, Hans & Luis
