VP6D ISLAND REPORT/UPDATE/Correction (October 26th) [edited]. 

  We made an error in yesterday's report.

  - DXA does catch up after a network outage, DXA is reflecting the
    N1MM log. There still may be some FT8 contacts that didn't get
    uploaded, this is work in progress.

  - We are close to 60,000 QSOs, another log update in a few hours,
    when we should have a better count.

  - At least 6 more full days of operation planned.

  - Last night VP6D made the first ever 6 meter EME contacts from Ducie
    Island. 5 contacts are in the log EME, we'll try again tonight.

  - Based on over the air comments, we are being told a lot of ATNOs
    were made.

  More to follow when the team provides their morning update.

  Team Ducie 2018
