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 …
