"The team (PY7XC, PY7ZY, PT7BZ, PY0FF) arrived at the Rocks on the morning of February 9, finding the sea much too rough to even consider landing", PW0S Coordinator Bill Smith, W9VA reports. "The seas subsided enough on the morning of February 12 to attempt a landing, and they were able to get some equipment ashore and operating by 2100Z. The bad weather continued with high winds, lightning and rain, frequently interrupting operations. Because of the three day delay in landing, by February 16 the group was already way overdue getting home to their families and jobs. Supplies were running out. The weather was such that they could safely get themselves and equipment off the Rocks, and the sensible decision was made to leave." The QSO count "is well below expectations", but they were "7,800 contacts that would have not been made at all without incredible courage and devotion to our hobby. An effort was made to spend at least a little time on all bands and modes, including RTTY". QSL via KU9C. The web pages for PW0S are at http://www.soutomaior.eti.br/mario/paginas/dx.htm (logs should be available soon).
