For immediate release.
Kingman Reef 2000 Update
Well the team is back in Hawaii and should be reaching their homes in the next day or so.
I will have the logs in a few days and will announce when they are posted to the web site.
I did get some preliminary numbers from Tom today.
Total QSOs around 80,600.
Some highlights:
Europe: 20% (15827)
CW: 49.0%
SSB: 49.4%
RTTY: 1.6%
160: 947 Q
6M: 899 Q
RTTY: 1333 Q
Full numbers will be out later this week.
73 K5K will stay on the air until 16:00 UTC 31 October.
In a few hours (at their sunset, 04:00 UTC) they will take down the 17, 12 and 10 meter antennas.
The last 12 hours or so they will operate 15, 20, 40 and 80 (both modes on each band).
4 stations will be operational during their night.
Pileups are very thin and right now they are CQ-ing on 12 and 15 with few takers.
