I will attend the annual Norwegian Ham Meeting 2023, held in Jessheim Is- og flerbrukshall near the Gardermoen Airport. The main purpose is to meet up with other DXers and discuss future opportunities, as well as socializing and mingling with other crazy amateur radio operators out there. If you want to say hello, you know …
CQWW SSB 2023 is over, and I assisted my club the best I could. We struggled with terrible conditions on Saturday, but did our best and worked 160-10m with four operators. I logged about 500 of the 2000+ QSOs we got. Fingers crossed for better conditions next year! Unfortunately our Expert 1.5k-FA PA decided its …
It's that time of year again. Prepare your ears and forget about getting any sleep, it's CQWW SSB time! I will be joining my club and be active as LN2T from CQ zone 14. We will start planning operator shifts soon, but I will probably opt for the evening/night shifts like I've done earlier. My …

I'm still a bit bummed that the JX Jan Mayen expedition got cancelled, but I'm on a constant lookout for …
Yesterday I had the pleasure of working with Akademisk Radioklubb (ARK) as LA1K/P in the Swedish portable test, SSA Portabeltest. LA1K mainly worked the 80m and 40m bands for the contest, while I kept a third station busy by calling CQ POTA on 20m. We managed to get Festningeparken a POTA id and did the …
I received a message from the operator, literally minutes ago, informing me that the planned trip to Jan Mayen is cancelled due to a lack of passengers. This is a decision I fully understand, and it's beyond their control. They said they will try again same time next year, and I'm already on the booking …
