11:00 UTC 30 April

As the day sets on Scarborough Reef they  finished operating position 2 and 
made good progress on the third operating  position.

As a result they are now able to man two stations during the  
darkness.  AND, it is pitch black out there.

After daybreak  tomorrow they can finish a third station and increase 
operations  further.

Both stations have SteppIR verticals and no 80 or 160 mtr  antennas have 
been erected yet.

The reef is extremely hazardous  making the setup slow and the heat is 
oppressive further tiring the  team.  At low tide the rocks are unreachable 
by the skiffs.

We  get a daily update and are not in constant contact with the team.  If we  
don't answer your emails it is because we know nothing further than what we  
publish.

Thanks for your understanding.

N4XP and N1DG for the  2007 Scarborough DXpedition
