Story:
My YL wanted to escape the unreliable Norwegian summer, so we boarded a plane
set for Spain. We stayed at my father-in-laws beautiful house in
Jávea-Xŕbia. Luckily there are a lot of threes to support my antennas, and the
house even has an terrace on the roof! Both I and my YL likes us here! :-)
Operating bands and modes:
I managed to work 12 DXCC, 2 new DXCC, and several transatlantic QSO's in
SSB on the 20 m and 17 m using only 10 watts and a halfwave dipole for the 20 m
band who was struck up between a tree in the garden and the roof of the house I was staying.
Radio Equipment:
ICOM IC-703 160 m - 6 m HF/ 50 MHz Multimode Transceiver
Kenwood TH-F7E 2 m/70 cm VHF/UHF FM Transceiver
Wire antennas made on location
Switch Mode PS 12 VDC - 23 A
