Wow, the solar storm really made things difficult this weekend. Only manages a few contacts, but it was still fun!

Spending this weekend working the new EFHW antenna, I got 96 POTA contacts across 10, 12, 17, 20 and 40 meters! All SSB, no digital! I am beyond happy with how it performs, and it even managed to get my last 2 states needed for hunting all 50 states in POTA!

Another #POTA early shift for DE-0192. Though it was sunny today there were only 2° C in the early morning hours.
On #40m #DX westward was sometimes possible (U. S., Aruba, Canada). No luck on #15m today. #20m yielded Cuba, Kuwait and Morocco. 88 QSO on all three bands.
Thanks hunters!

Well, it was such a nice day yesterday that I decided to put up the new EFHW antenna! Took a couple hours to get it in place and get it tuned up. It definitely works much better than I was expecting!

Managed to get the tune so I don't need to use any tuner at all on all bands that it supports! Everything is under 2:1 SWR and some are even nearly 1:1 which I really didn't expect!

The markers are color coded for the bands that I got contacts on. Green ones for 40 meters, orange ones for 30 meters, blue for 20 meters, cyan for 15 meters, and yellow for 10 meters!

I can definitely recommend this antenna ( myantennas.com EFHW ) without question.

After visiting #SAFA we (DA6TW, DB6LX and me) activated DE-0192 for #POTA and also 4 bunkers of german #BOTA program. @do5dos had a close look onto our activities.
Funny, because I originally had thought about activating but then decided not to bring my equipment. But others did! 😎
So I made 21 #ssb QSO on #20m.
Thanks hunters! 🤠

Foggy but not really cold (8° C) were the #wx conditions today for another #POTA activation. #40m early this morning allowed some grey line DX to Brazil and Trinidad & Tobago. Also I could work the J51A DXpedition in Guinea-Bissau. Another #ATNO is Sint Maarten. #15m and #20m were also worked. In the end 111 QSO were in the log.
Thanks hunters!
