Not now, Dinos.
I spnt a month in Spain, and it rained almost the whole time.Since I came back to Sweden it has also rained a load. It was snowing while I was away.
This evening we will have temperatures below freezing and a forecast for snow, so my operating in the middle of a field are not so practical.

I cannot operate from home because of all the QRM.

But I will post a massage on this topic when I am able to operate next.

I soon hope to use a small QRP rig that can be operated from inside the car, so I may just have to freeze for a few minutes to mount the antenna outside the car. But I will see what I can do during the winter.

I dod a lot of operating during the summer months, but it was limited to my lunch-breaks.

Very best regards from Harry - SM0VPO

Hi all,
Today I was still operating in my lunch break. Only running about 25-Watts average power (about 50W PEP). Positioned the antenna in the middle of a bit of a small field just outside the working place.

Today I got into Germany twice, Ireland, Denmark Ukraine, UK and Spain.
Last week I got into Italy and a couple of other countries in the Mediterranean.

Antenna is 1/4-wave ground-plane with three radials, mounted in my radio wooden box. No ATU with the new 5.2m MFJ telescopic antenna. FT-101ZD powered by a pair of 12AH alarm/UPS VRLA batteries. Duplicated the 101 bolt-on inverter and it works like a dream.

So if you want to call in on 14.195MHz (+/- QRM) then you are more than welcome. I will look forward to hearing from you.
 
Today I found myself in the centre of a small "pile-up". That is a first for me  Very Happy
I do like to chat a bit; a little more than the usual "59 OM 73 QRZ". I am especially interested in low-power or /P stations, but 59+20dB for a long rag-chew can also be really nice. I can learn a lot from people.

Will be QRV for this week and next week, weather permitting.

Finally, if you know of any good on-line site for "DX spotting" where I can drop a line then would be very grateful for the URL and the info  Cool
