LA/OL-263 Nårkampen

 

Nårkampen was the second summit for the day. As usual I parked at Bålsetra and hiked to the summit.

The WX was still great, sunny and 18 C. And the conds were also good. 17 stations were in the log in slightly more than a half hour, and one S2S.

DXCCs: DL. EA, F, G, GM, HB9, OE, OK, ON.

LA/OL-200 Segalstadsæterkampen

On August 29 and 29 I had planned to activate four summits, and LA/OL-200 was the first one. It is probably one of the easiest 4-pointers. It is only 15-20 minutes walk from a suitable parking area.

Beautiful weather, nice scenery, and SOTA: What more can you want?

I operated on 20 meter. 21 QSOs from 14 DXCCs were made, two of them were S2S.

DXCCs: DL, EA, EU, F, G, GM, HB9, I, OE, ON, PA, S5, SM, YO.

LA/RL-102 Rossåsen

During our vacation trip to the Sandes area, it was a time slot for activation of a summit on August 8. The definitely most easy summit to activate is LA/RL-102 Rossåsen; only a few minutes’ drive from Sandnes followed by a short hike.

The weather was OK, cloudy, relative calm, and 19 C.

A few 10’s of meters from the cairn, it is a fence suitable for mounting the antenna pole.

I decided to operate on 30 meter. The conds were fairly OK.  In around 45 minutes, 21 stations from 11 DXCC were logged. One of them was a S2S.

DXCCs: DL, EA, F, G, GW, HB9, I, OE, ON, SM, YO.

DXCC: DL, EA, EI, F, G, HB9, LA, OE, OK, ON, S5, SP, UR.
