For those who are interested in working KH1, the latest info:

    "Things are humming on Baker Island.  After storms, SAT phone failures,
    extreme heat and a storm that damaged both our low band antennas everything
    is fixed and we have over 40,000 QSOS in the log.

    We are all happily working radio shifts handing out ATNOs and making
    memories that will remain with us forever.

    Our pilots have requested we shift our 30 mtr frequency to down 1 to 10.107
    to avoid EU QRM.  We also will try FT8 normal mode on 1.840 at 09:00 UTC 3
    July for East Coast USA who have been hard to work. If successful we will
    stay on 160 through the night giving Eastern EU a shot.

    We are still getting lots of FT8 callers using the wrong software.

    Also we hope to activate 60 mtrs (FT8) on 4 July.

    Lastly because of the tides and heat we start tearing down late on the 4th
    and leave Baker on the 6th.

    Don"

So, better get them while you can.
