Aktivierung von SM/VL-004 Hovfjället (SMFF-1704). Ich hoffte, wenigstens 4 QSOs ins Log zu bekommen; denn auf 40m und 30m war in den letzten Tagen nicht viel zu hören. Andere Bergaktivierungen kamen hier nur sehr schwach an. Auf 20m war auch nicht viel los, schien mir aber am ehesten geeignet als erstes Band zu versuchen.Direkt nach meinem ersten CQ meldete sich Dom, F6EPO, und wir hielten ein längeres QSO. Offensichtlich landete ein RBN Spot im SOTAwatch und daraufhin kamen 21 Stationen in das Log, mit dabei zwei S2S (Summit to Summit) Verbindungen mit schweizer Stationen.

Das hat sich doch gelohnt … die XYL wartete am Auto und dann gab es Kaffe og Kaka …

Activation from SM/VL-004 Hovfjället (SMFF-1704). I hoped for 4 QSO for qualifing this reference, because I used only 5 watts with the MP-1 antenna. Last days I checked the bands and 40 + 30m signals were weak weak weak and 20m nearly dead.So I decided to begin on 14 MHz and got surprisingly a good start. 21 QSO were in the log when I made qrt after 1/2 hour. All on 14 MHz incl. two S2S QSOs with Switzerland. Nice!

After this activation XYL Bettina and me visited a nice swedish cafe.

RBN does not reflect the condx, they were really better

CQ SMFF

Sweden has started their own SMFF-activation ‚test‘. They added the rest of the un-approved National Parks and Nature Reservates to the existing WFF-list (001-085). So right now there are 3667 SMFF-places to run radio from!

The Swedish activation started April 9th this year. Until 28-May-2011 32,667 QSO’s has been made and 545 SMFF-places have been activated of around 200 Radio Amateurs.

– All is free
– No prizes
– Free diplomas automatically generated for own printout
– One top-list with most SMFF activated
– One top-list with most QSO’s activated

Very easy rules. One (1) point for every uniqe QSO – which must be confirmed to generate a point. It doesn’t matter which mode, band, or effect are used. The result will be set to zero (0) Dec 31 at 24:00 so others will have a chance to get a good ranking.

Please go to the WEBSITE and play around. Look at all pics in the Blog (1st page). Extra interesting pages are;

– Maps and areas (as an exemple, just put in JO78PN and click to see the excellent map)
– Charts

This is really fun. It´s a mix of technique, physical avtivity and nature experiences. On top of it all, most of us reduces our BMI 🙂
