LA/OL-100 Valsfjellet

Valsfjellet was one again activated on September 13.

All QSOs were made on 20 meter, and the conditions were quite good. The weather was really magnificent; sun, calm, and temperature around 16-17C (not bad in September for a QTH 1148 meter above sea level).

Also on this activation, all QSOs were made on 20 meter; 30 on CW and 10 on SSB. One S2S was also worked today; LA5WNA/P on LA/OL-263 Nårkampen.

LA/OL-088 Ormtjørnkampen

Also this year I activated LA/OL-088 Ormtjørnkampen. The summit is inside Langsua national park, LAFF-0021. Thus, the activations also counts for WWFF.

All QSOs were made on 20 meter; 34 on CW, and 11 on SSB. The conditions were quite good. On SSB, I used only 2.5 watts. Still, I was able to work SV2OXS, as well as receive 5-9 + 5dB from South East England.

LA/OL-186 Nylsfjellet

Nylsfjellet was activated on September 12. I parked at N 61 02.962 E 009 57.792. The trail to the summit starts a few meter south, and it is easily found.

At the summit, it is very easy to find a suitable location for erecting a pole.

All my QSO were made on 20 meter; 32 on CW, and 13 on SSB.

LAFF-060 Svartskog

This was my first “real” WWFF activation. (Actually, I activated LAFF-021 Langsua national park when I activated LA/OL-088 Ormtjørnkampen last August. At that time I hadn't heard about WWFF.).

Svartskog is only a short drive from my home QTH (LA3F has also its QTH within its boundaries). It was a QRP operation with my FT-817 and a linked dipole. I managed to obtain 36 QSOs in the available time, mostly on 20 meter.

DXCCs: DL, EA, EU, F, HA, LA, OK, OM, ON, S5, SM, SP, UA, UA9, UR, 9A.
