The team has taken down most antennas and have a couple stations and a couple antennas still up. The work was much harder than expected as a storm surge came into the Nullabor – where the flooded antennas were located.

The penguins wondered why these humans were trying to act like penguins . . .

Well the on-site team is to be congratulated for a great DXpedition and effort and making over 75 K of QSOs in conditions where the propagation gods and WX did all they could to fight them. Marvelous effort by all. Propagation was just not there for 10 meters but I did manage three new bands and one new mode. Unfortunately missed RTTY but there’s always the next time!
Dear Oms
I research you all days now on the air in low power..as you know..
Now and then i come on the bands…no possibilty for the moment.
May be for one first contact in the next two days..21,28 mhz or others…mode CW,RTTY,or phone…
All the best to the team!

Congratulation on a superb operation in spite of the dismal conditions, and for giving out so many ATNOs. Well done!

The penguins were having a ‘field day’ with all the humans around to provide them with non-stop entertainment 😊!
Sad to see the operation winding down, but it was great fun monitoring the very successful VK0EK Mission almost continuously all the way from Cape Town. Like the penguins I can also only say: Good show!!!
