Hej
C2 - Nauru
There has been a change of callsign for the Latvian team going to
Nauru later this month. Instead of C21W they will be signing C21WW
between September 16 and 25. http://www.lral.lv/c21ww_t30l/index.html

Yesterday the C21WW team reported they have the antennas up and two stations
QRV with about 4000 QSOs in the log. Actually as of earlier today they had some 9339 QSOs in the online log at http://www.lral.lv/c21ww_t30l/log.html.

Hej
C21WW
Still 2 stations on the air.

Approximately 120m long BOG antenna is installed in EU direction.
Longer one was not possible - the beach starts. In North America direction we can't put BOG, as ocean starts there.

We have obtained license for 60m operation.

Got news from Nauru Airlines that our flight back scheduled for
September 25th has been cancelled. And we were put on the flight day earlier -
September 24th.
This causes some extra inconvenience and costs -
we will have to end our operations 1 day earlier than planned and
instead spend one extra day in Australia.

We will dismantle antennas on September 23. On September 24th
noon need to be in the airport. We should be home by September 26th evening.

News and status

September 22 - Update

22:00 GMT: Comment about little activity on 160m: they are struggling with low band antenna match-box issues on 160m band, which do not appear during sunny day. Probably it is related to moisture condensation during the night, which results in arcing.

19:00 GMT: Plan for the last day (September 23rd): They will continue to be on air during the day.
Spiderbeams will be removed in the evening, 40m vertical and low band vertical will be left for another night and removed last morning.
So we can expect another night with lowband operation, may be including 160m, up until their September 24 morning, which in GMT terms means up until after their sunrise at 18:40 GMT on September 23rd.
