The following update is from OH0XX, Olli, and OH2BH, Martti on Saint Barthelemy Island - FJ/OH2AM.
The team has three verticals up on the beach for continued operation over the next 12-24 hours on 17, 20 and 40 meters CW and SSB. Remember there are two ops and two stations. Over the next three hours or so Martti will continue on 20 SSB. This is a good time for the JAs and some Pacific Islands. Olli will start out on 40 CW. The 40 meter station will remain on the band mostly CW but maybe some SSB (probably after 0900Z). On Saturday after their sunrise watch for them on 20 and 17 meters probably simultaneously. They have an 20 meter high vertical for the 75/80 meter band which they hope to have installed and running by Sunday night (their time). So the thinking right now is Sunday night one mode and Monday night the other mode on this band. Many have asked about when the operation will end. Olli is currently scheduled to leave the island around noon (local time) on Tuesday. Martti is scheduled to leave on Wednesday early in the morning. So this should give you an idea of how much more time you have to get into their log. Remember there will be no online log search during the operation! QSL FJ/OH2AM via OH2BN.
