Ben BrunzelParks on the Air activation time at the Horner Rennbahn in Hamburg. Challenging conditions but 40m saved the day! The Weather was partly cloudy at 8°C. (1/3)
The 20m band was really strange today. Only a few contacts were made in CW three of which were US stations! After switching to 40m I had a nice SSB pile-up. It was very nice activation with kind stations.
It does not always have to be a dx fest. Very much enjoyed this. (2/3)
I used the Yaesu FT-891 with the draussenfunker vertical antenna. For the 40m band I use a coil to electricly enlarge the antenna.
Highlight: this was my first activation using a paddle: the #bamatech TP-III
It was challanging but went well. (3/3)
