[Great-River-DX] BS7H Press Release #10

[Cliff Ahrens]

11:00 UTC 30 April

As the day sets on Scarborough Reef they finished operating position 2 and
made good progress on the third operating position.

As a result they are now able to man two stations during the darkness.  AND,
it is pitch black out there.

After daybreak tomorrow they can finish a third station and increase
operations further.

Both stations have SteppIR verticals and no 80 or 160 mtr antennas have been
erected yet.

The reef is extremely hazardous making the setup slow and the heat is
oppressive further tiring the team.  At low tide the rocks are unreachable
by the skiffs.

We get a daily update and are not in constant contact with the team.  If we
don't answer your emails it is because we know nothing further than what we
publish.

Thanks for your understanding.
