Due to my chronical pain disease I’m not able to go hiking anymore. On the way searching for some activity in nature I discovered the WWFF program.
Today I activated ONFF-320 Kwarekken Westerlo, one that’s never been activated before. I had a hard time finding a place reachable by car. And the sign of “Kwarekken” is not inside the park … just outside … But we made it !
In about 1,5 hour I made 145 QSO’s in 22 DXCC. An average of 97 QSO’s per hour … not bad ! Had to stop earlier as planned, the pain came up to heavy. Probably will go here again in the future.
Statistics :
The eQSLs are already fired out, the log is on the way to WWFF.
Note that I will have printed QSL cards soon (with the help from DJ6OI, thanks brother!). Paper QSL only on reply (buro & direct) or request a buro QSL via email : dannyATon4vt.be
Some photo impressions of today :
What did we learn today ?
1. I’m getting my operating skills in pile up handling back … 97 QSO/hour is not bad I think
2. Many stations really have a bad modulation and are using strange codes for their callsign, using the NATO phonetic alphabet would make it all a lot easier …
3. My portable setup is doing well (more on it later on this blog)
4. WWFF is big fun !
See you on my next activation !
