Topband: Fwd: A way forward to keep 'old school' modes vibrant alongside FT-8? (long)

Not sure of to think of this. Was it another veiled dig at a mode you don't
enjoy?

Topband: On their way!

2016-01-27 Thread Jim Monahan
   For those who haven't seen this:

 

January 27 – Antonio EA5RM – VP8STI/VP8SGI Chief Pilot –  informs that finally, 
yesterday the team was able to collect all gear from Thule Is. All team members 
are OK and they are on the way to South Georgia where they will arrive after 
three days sailing. They will try to be on the air for eight days as VP8SGI. 
Personally, Antonio wants to thank to all who send support messages expressing 
their concerns about VP8STI team situation.
