Baracán (#SOTA EA8/TF-009, #POTA ES-2313, #WWFF EAFF-0567) offers splendid views over the Teno #mountains in the north of #Tenerife island. And it’s a lizard playground. Propagation into #Europe was nice with 34 QSOs in 43 minutes on #20m. #HamRadio #SummitsOnTheAir #ParksOnTheAir #Amateurfunk #qrp #qcxmini #morsecode #hiking #spain #canarias
This RBN Map says it all of how my repaired @qrplabs 20 meter #QCXmini performed after replacing Q1-3 and Q6. Something about making repairs to your own equipment brings out the endless joys of being an #AmateurRadio #HamRadio operator.
Quick #amateurradio #hamradio CW #morsecode #pota #parksontheair activation with repaired @qrplabs #qrp #qrpradio #qcxmini 20 meter transceiver. Got 11 contacts coast to coast in17 minutes. Shazam
20 Meter @qrplabs #QCXMini back in business again. Replaced Q1-3 & Q6, realigned, readjusted and retweaked L1,L2 and L3 with a little over 5 watts output for this easy to repair #QRP #AmateurRadio #HamRadio CW #MorseCode #QRPRadio Not bbad RBN reception during less than ideal conditions on a Saturday night.
Montaña de la Atalaya (#SOTA EA8/TF-013) has a short, steep and sandy walk up to the activation zone. The views of Tenerife Norte - Ciudad de La Laguna Airport and the city of San Cristóbal de La Laguna are worth the ascend to the otherwise rather unimpressive summit. Just a quick one with eight QSOs in eight minutes. #HamRadio #SummitsOnTheAir #Amateurfunk #qrp #qcxmini #morsecode #hiking #mountains #tenerife #canarias
Because some of you asked: You don’t need to pack a lot of things to have #XOTA fun while on vacation. Take a look at the pictures and their description for some basic ideas. #HamRadio #SummitsOnTheAir #ParksOnTheAir #Amateurfunk #qrp #qcxmini #morsecode #hiking #sota #pota #wwff
Cruz de Gala (#SOTA EA8/TF-007, #POTA ES-2313, #WWFF EAFF-0567) is an easy hike up. The summit itself has a couple of large radio towers which are currently under construction. So activate, take a couple of photos and leave: 39 QSOs on #20m in about an hour. #HamRadio #SummitsOnTheAir #ParksOnTheAir #Amateurfunk #qrp #qcxmini #morsecode #hiking #mountains #tenerife #canarias
Only the deer and I braved the 1st frosty morning of this season. Tough band conditions for the @qrplabs #qrp 40m #qrpradio #qcxmini with the @cwmorse_us #sp4 #cw #morsecode paddle during my #hamradio #amateurradio #pota #parksontheair activation
Working as EA8/DK3IP/P I‘ll try to activate some #SOTA, #POTA and #WWFF entities along our hikes on #Tenerife the coming days. Today we started with ES-2313 = EAFF-0567 Parque Rural de Teno near the Lighthouse of Punta Teno. 12 QSOs in 28 minutes on #20m in #morsecode leave a lot of room for improvement. Hope to hear you on the next activation. #canaries #HamRadio #SummitsOnTheAir #ParksOnTheAir #Amateurfunk #qrp #qcxmini #hiking
A failed activation is perfectly OK: I quit after 3 QSOs on #20m in 30 Minutes in #POTA DE-0231 Mauerpark #Berlin. #HamRadio #ParksOnTheAir #Amateurfunk #qrp #qcxmini #morsecode
