SMFF-1238 Rösjöskogen, Sollentuna Swedish Flora Fauna Radio activity
Portable Flora Fauna amateur radio activity in nature reserve Rösjöskogen. This is a very nice place near lake Rösjön and a close by camping - Rösjöbaden. There is a 5.5 km marked nature track going around the lake well worth visiting.
The weather was a bit unstable, but became much better after lunch and we had a nice sunny experience. Initiated the transmissions using QRP- 1 Watt and increased up to 5W.
Started using a 40m dipol antenna with 1:1 balun. After that I connected the 23m long wire antenna with 9:1 balun and got contact with an other set of stations. It might be due to the antenna / deployment or the radio conditions.
SM5BZT gave me two more S-units and better readability using the long wire.
My radio station was placed near an orienteering control in the middle of the woods. However I was the only person checking in at this control during my stay.
