PACTOR II USB modem installed this morning. Its just under the VHF radio in the top centre of the picture. Its connected to the GPS and the SSB radio on the left..it tunes the radio automatically and the program that runs on the netbook does email and receives weather faxes and grib files over the radio !!
The electric fridge compressor ready to be installed on a shelf (yet to be made) above the pump locker...the pump in the middle of the picture is the water cooling pump for the fridge compressor.
The weather here is still awful, raining on and off and blowy...there's a cyclone forming just south of Fiji and heading this way over the next few days. Listening to Russell Radio as I write this, they are telling people around 26S 175E that they should be getting 35 to 40 knots tonight....oof but not far away from that they have no wind at all !
