Latest update March 10th 2026
While the previous days has been good, the current weather at Bouvetø,ya is strong wind 25 m/s and rain and we have difficulties to walk and stand up while outdoor. The160m antenna broke today and the 20m yagi is also damaged and not in use. We have spare parts ready for the antennas, but currently it is deemed unsafe to raise the yagi in this strong wind. We will get it up as soon as the weather allows it.
One of the smaller tents is also damaged in the adverse weather. For radio and sleeping we have large and solid tents from Arctic Lavvo in Norway. These have proven to withstand strong wind also during the previous 3Y0J trip, and so far, no issues with them. The damages so far won’t impact the operation, we have backups that will be installed should we experience more damages.
The current forecast is that we will have this weather until the weekend, so more action is possible. Today we had some food delivered from the vessel in the morning, it is not every day you order a pizza to be delivered by helicopter to Bouvetø,ya! This was welcomed by the operators who have eaten MRE since they arrived Saturday 28th ,to give you this new band slot. Each day we have 3 MRE meals from a Norwegian manufacturer. We do have a social tent where we meet for the meals and talk not only about radio but also other things. The daily routine is that we have 6h shift rotation in a schedule so we can work during different timeslots and experience various propagation and bands. Last night there was a good opening on 160m, so it is a priority to get this antenna up when weather allow.
We currently have 6-7 stations up and running and will keep this until the weekend. It is likely we will see a partial tear down if there is a weather window this weekend or early next week. We still plan to stay as long as possible next week, but the weather window will dictate when we must return to vessel. We have currently logged more than 70.000 contacts, and we thank everyone for being in the pileup!
