UPDATE April 14: We left Starbuck today after 3 days. The wind was bad and sand storms got into our equipment – in particular the laptop keyboards. We made approx 8500 Q’s. Hope you all enjoyed the chase. Propagation was better to EU at the end but western EU was still dfficult… – LINK

Hello Art, here is the latest news from their web site:
2010-04-08 08:53
We should arrive Starbuck your Sunday morning (our evening). If we can land before dark we could be QRV that day. We are used to putting antennas up in the dark! BTW we stay on the islands and cannot easily get back to update you during the activity days. Propagation conditions on Flint were very disappointing. Virtually no EU QSOs. Q totals for the 2 days operation approx 5,500. All ok except Steve, 9M6DXX had violent stomach pains today. The pains have gone and he is now sleeping. 73 Derek
Thanks for your patience with me on 21 Mhz cw – I keep messing up with this new callsign HI…wind here blew antenna down – didn’t get back on the air until you left T32VI so couldn’t try SSB. 73 and good sailing, have fun and safe home. Del
Tnx fer 4 new one IOTA!
Good job.
73!
Thanks for picking me up well above your listening freq. Appreciate your effort. Great signal into Maryland. Owen, K3CB
Friends congratulate by good operation spectacular tnx QSO.
Good job

Thank you very much for your DXpedition gift to all radio amateurs who you worked and for the opportunity to connect with remote IOTAs via the airwaves. It is always a special event when new contacts can be had and these events inspire renewed interest for all DXers, even the less fortunate who cant bust thru the pile ups and log a QSO.
Very well done. Glad I was able to make QSOs with T32CI and T32SI. Special 73, Gary
Thanks for the 17 meter contact. Good luck with the rest of your DXpedition.
Tnx for the 20m contact from Starbuck. Its a long way here in the
East Coast of the US,esp with a low height yagi. Reasonable copy at 01:00 – 02:00 UTC.
73s krish
Great shipping dx
with bad propagation is you really done everything possible to connect you to all.
