Update from VK9MT:
The VK9MT DXpedition ended operations at 0330 UTC on April 4.
'Due to the ever-worsening weather associated with an impending tropical storm, the team decided in the interest of safety to end the operation early.
The last night on the island was extremely difficult. With continued heavy rain and wind, radio operations were nearly impossible. We have set sail for the Australian coast and seek a course to keep ahead of the storm that caused us to leave the reef."
