Finally yesterday, 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 during eight days as VP8SGI.
Personally, I want to thanks to all who send support messages to us, expressing their concerns about VP8STI team situation.

VP8SGI News 28 January 2016

David, K3LP, co leader of the VP8STI/VP8SGI DXpedition, called me via satphone about a half hour ago from the Braveheart.

David sounded tired (no surprise!) but in good spirits. He reported that the Force 12 antennas and 4O3A triplexer and diplexer systems worked great and came through the storm without damage and will all be redeployed on South Georgia shortly.
David reported that they received two to three feet of snow to go along with the 70 mph winds. That's summer at 59 degrees south for you!
