Maratua Island Activation IOTA OC-166 & iBOTA Pantai Teluk Harapan (YB/KI-B224)
Very sorry to let everyone knows that on day2, February 26th, 2023 (around 0200UTC) Maratua Island Operation, my Laptop was suddenly death. It was a failure of the system boot SSD which contain my windows 10 operating system. The bad news is my log was still on wsjtx folder directory. I haven’t move it anywwhere beacuse i think i will do it when we finished(1day left), bad decission. I tried many times with all the knowloedges i know to recover the SSD and no luck. I went to a professional technical support in Samarinda as well. Still there’s no way of restoring the SSD, because its an internal chipset/memory damage. Why it takes so long to let you guys know, it was beacuse i have to return home and try everything i could to recover before i decide to buy a new SSD and install a new Operating system. So now, how are we gonna solve this?, i made almost 100 QSO’s Mode Digital (FT8) & Phone SSB. Since i lost the adif file everyone who made contact/QSO with YC5YC/7 please send me detail QSO to my email (Check my qrz Profile) or WhatsApp me on +6288271259888. I will check if your log is valid as i know my operating time. Thank you for all your support.
