With the distance a mere 1400 plus miles, it is a lot like shooting fish in a barrel even with many callers. A little bit of listening pays off to identify where in the bandpass the DX operator is listening. I hear a lot of callers calling randomnly. This is how I am able to make a contact with one or two calls.
August 19 Update:
The operators have landed on the island with very limited equipment. The radio gear transport has been delayed by heavy rain, rough seas and thunderstorms. VFR conditions not currently present to fly into either operating site via helicopter. Rough seas are preventing the landing of two boats to unload gear.
