BITS & PIECES -

The following is from W5GAI, Skip, in reference to the status of VY0V,
Cezar.

Bernie, W3UR

VY0V
DXpedition to East Pen Is. (NA-231 New)
3 days between March 26 - 31, 2010
Nunavut (CQ Zone 4), Canada

http://www.qrz.com/db/vy0v

I saw this spot about 0330z and went to 10107.5. VY0V was on
frequency, asking for help. Others had marginal copy so I joined
and had several QSO's with Cezar VY0V between. 0330-0500z. He said
that rain and wind was fierce, visibility poor, he had no water, no
fire, no gas for generator, battery getting low, and native guide
had abandoned him 38 hours ago. He was worried and seemed delirious,
rambling on while running down his battery. I got Cezar to give me
his GPS coordinates 56" 44.854 N 88" 37.812 W and relayed this to
Ralph VE7XF who said Frank VE7DP was working to get a rescue and they
passed it on to a rescue team coordinator by phone who will get it to
them by sat phone next comm they have. The rescue team supposedly
left Fort Severn on a 7/8 hour trek at 4pm EDT which would have been
3PM CDT, so they should have been near him by 10-11 PM CDT or 03-0400z.
Cezar said at
0500z he had low visibility and no contact with the rescue team yet.
Told Cezar to conserve battery, get some sleep and try 10107.5 again
at 1100z just before his sunrise at 1130z if not rescued. Later Ralph
VE7XF informed me that guys that went to try to get Cezar today had to
turn back according to VE7DP, as their ski doo kept bogging down due
to the rise in temp in the area. I tried 10107.5 at 1100 and 1130z
and got no reply from VY0V. So I started looking on the internet for
RCMP phone numbers. I called RCMP's Ontario Division HQ 24/7. At
11:45z they patched me through to Jason at the North Bay Comm Center
of the Ontario Provincial Police. He said that the First Nations
Policing team from Fort Severn was working on the rescue and that
they were in communication with North Bay Comm Center. He said would
relay any new information to me for broadcast to the concerned amateur
radio community. At 1215z Jason called me to say that the rescue team
hads a visual sighting of Cezar's location and should be arriving at
his location shortly. I continue to monitor 10107.5 and 7007. Let's
hope for a positive outcome.
