VK9M, MELLISH REEF
It has been a rough week for the VK9MT team. Storms
have hampered their operation and they were on the verge of leaving at
any time most of the week. The weather was extremely windy, with occasional
heavy rain, the antennas were taking a severe beating. The operating tents
were shaking and very noisy, the operators were having trouble hearing
callsigns.
The VK9MT team is now QRT. They were planning to operate until April 9th, but QSNs show activity ended around 1330z, April 4th. An update sent out by Gene, K5GS, on April 5th states: Due to the ever worsening weather associated with an impending tropical storm, the team decided in the interest of safety to end the operation early. The last night on the island was extremely difficult. With continued heavy rain and wind, radio operations were nearly impossible. We have set sail for the Australian coast and seek a course to keep ahead of the storm that caused us to leave the reef. Expect 2.5 - 3 days of sailing prior to reaching our port destination.
While the team is disappointed, we realize that you are even more disappointed.
We gave one elderly ZS amateur his last one for Top of the Honor Roll, a PP1 his Honor Roll position and many all time new ones. Based on the logs there were many band fills.
We would like to acknowledge the generosity of the clubs, foundations, individual donors and our corporate sponsors. And a special thanks to Steve Kafka and the Evohe crew for their endless runs to the island, help with every logistical task during the trip, and the strong backs of his young crew doing the heavy lifting.
