Take a look a this video. I noticed LB1GB had posted it over at LA8W.com. I was active from this station last year. I posted a story and pictures in this post.
Radio has been kinda slow here. No HF has been worked in a while, and not too many contacts since the big aurora in early August. I have however managed to work several new gridsquares on 6M. If you look at the map, you see the new ones I've worked. Thank you very much to all the people that activated these squares!
I did get another proof on August 11th that the 6M season still wasn't over. I noticed TY1KS being spotted further down in Europe. I turned the yagi and to my surprise, I could hear him. I could however not make myself heard. I think I copied him for around 15 minutes before he faded. Listen to the soundclip below.

I heard the sad news this weekend that LA8YB Finn had past away after being ill for a long time. Finn turned 82 in July this year. Last time I saw and spoke to him, was during the Hammeeting back in April. I'm glad I got the chance to see his lifelong 2M project back in 2009. Finn had a 32 x 17el array on 2M. Read about it in my post here. My condolences to the family. RIP Finn.
I got these two confirmations last week. I knew VU4PB eventually would come on LoTW. I didn't expect UA2FL to be a new one on LoTW though. Those unexpected ones are always nice to get. 6 to go for my LoTW goal of 300. Other interesting confirmations lately has been 5Z4/UA4WHX, FP/VE9MY and R1MVA. Thanks once again to all LoTW users. Keep 'em coming.
What a nice surprise this was. VP6BR Jukka (OH2BR) was on Pitcairn back in 2000. He stayed there for 3 month celebrating his 40 year hamradio career. Jukka is the only station I have worked from Pitcairn and I worked him from 30M-10M. Thank you very much Jukka. That was #292 on LoTW. Only 8 more to go for 300.
