This was my second visit to this summit in winter, but my very first with HAM radio gear in my backpack. The propagation on the HF-bands was not too good under this activation, but with only 5W and 3 band end-fed wire antenna I managed to get 42 stations in the log.

The 3 band end-fed wire antenna, stretched out between my two skis.

That’s one happy SOTA activator, ready to fly downhill on soft spring snow.
