Amateur Radio Fieldday!

Amateur Radio Fieldday!

This weekend some of us are again camping in BV7AU's hangar, doing a last equipment test for the VHF QSO Party next weekend.

The weather is not exactly on our side: There is a lot of rain in the form of short showers coming without any warning. The shortest may be over in 30 seconds, but still leaves anyone who was not under cover dripping wet.

I only did one contact with Japan, southern tip of Honshu, on 50Mhz. For non-hams: That is a distance of 1600km, using what once had been the lowest TV frequencies, so it was not too bad, but also not overwhelming.
