The return to Dhamara was uneventful. It took a little over 3 hours to take down the camp, and move everything to the boat. Packing started the afternoon of the day prior, as everything had to be separated into two transports: one that we'll be shipped to Hyderabad, and the other than we need to along with us to Sagar.
We had been working in the evening a little bit on putting the logs together. We haven't removed yet some dupes in short time span, but even with those removed, the total number of contacts will be over 10,000, with about 5000 unique stations in over 100 DXCCs. This includes over 250 contacts we made on 6 m. The final tally will be announced on this website in due course. Prior to publishing the log, we will have to prepare and submit the necessary documentation to the IOTA management team for the validation of this operation toward IOTA credits. The same will have to happen for the upcoming operation from Sagar island. Please note that the team is currently focused on the activities associated with this island back on the air. In any case, we plan to have both logs uploaded at Club Log after some additional checking right after Cezar's return back home on Dec 16. QSL requests, however, will be accepted only after the IOTA management will have approved these operations.
We understand that many of you are impatient but please wait on sending any requests until Cezar's return back home and the upload of the logs. If the IOTA management approves both of these activities, QSO matching will be open starting Jan 2 for AS-179 and Jan 9 for AS-153, via LoTW, starting with those requesting direct confirmation using Club Log's OQRS. More information on this will be published on this website after the AU2S Sagar activity.
