I copied this off thePT0S web site News.

Our main challenge continues to be the very limited Internet access. Log
updates are very difficult to send. Logs need to be broken into small
enough segments, which must be individually compressed into files of around
15 kbytes each. On some days we end up with 14 or 15 log update messages.
Once these are ready to go, I have to climb to the top of Belmont (a steep,
rocky climb), set up the computer and the sat-phone and wait for a good
satellite pass. Once I have a connection, generally I am able to send our 2
or 3 files or e-mails. Then wait for the next good pass... The entire
process takes 4 to 5 hours each day, is error prone and very time
consuming. Log updates generally run 36 hours behind, and some files need
to be resent. So please bear with us!
