1st. They did not operate from Roncador Bank "due to lack of
a suitable location." However, they plan to relocate to Bajo

John states, "A few other ops
are going from the SEANET group, so there may be other calls
in use as well. We are taking 2 rigs, but as we have no bandpass
filters, we will only be able to run two stations if we can get
enough separation between the antennas." QSL via M0URX.
