#atno — Public Fediverse posts

As long as weather is sunny I once more activated DE-0192 (Saar Regional Park) for #POTA .
45 QSO was the outcome today, and besides many 'old friends' there was an #ATNO, a small island in the Caribbean called Montserrat.
Thanks hunters!

I put up my antenna wire today one more time for #POTA. My tuner has a power problem, so this time I had to work without it. Measuring my inverted vee with my analyzer I found out it was completely out of tune. Took some time to fix that but it was worth it. 29 QSO on #17m and #20m with Timor Leste as an #ATNO.
Thanks hunters!

Spontaneous #POTA activation this afternoon on #17m yielded 49 QSO. Lots of them I could do with stations in North America, especially Canada and U. S.
but also Cuba, Dominican Republic and Nicaragua, the latter being #ATNO.
Thanks hunters!

sometimes, waking up in the middle of the night and hopping on #FT8 is worth it, lol

Central Kiribati is an all time new entity for me! #atno

Went 'up the hill' this morning for another #POTA activation. What I didn't know was that a huge magnetic storm was going on. When I realized it I decided to do #FT8 only.
The outcome was 45 QSO on #40m and #15m, with Sri Lanka as #atno.
Thanks chasers!
Spring is coming, 7 °C and partly overcast this morning. Some birds accompanied me but unfortunately I don't know what species they were.

Rainy but mostly dry were the weather conditions this morning during my short #POTA activation. What I didn't expect before was I'd manage to work every continent except for Antarctica!
Europe, North America and South America on #40m. Asia, Africa and Oceania on #15m. Nigeria as an #atno . New Zealand as furthest distant. 27 QSO.
Thanks hunters!

Night shift from 0300 to 0600 UTC for #POTA #80m, #60m and #30m.
Many U.S. and Anguilla as an #atno. 56 QSO.
Thanks hunters!

#hamradio #amateurradio

Got up very early this morning to activate #POTA DE-0192 while it was dark. 53 QSO between moon setting and sunrise. On #80m I could not DX due to an antenna connector not being plugged in correctly. Better stuff on #60m and #30m.
Worked US, St. Barthelemy and Guinea Bissau on 60m, Guyana as #atno plus New Zealand on 30m.
Thanks hunters!

Foggy but not really cold (8° C) were the #wx conditions today for another #POTA activation. #40m early this morning allowed some grey line DX to Brazil and Trinidad & Tobago. Also I could work the J51A DXpedition in Guinea-Bissau. Another #ATNO is Sint Maarten. #15m and #20m were also worked. In the end 111 QSO were in the log.
Thanks hunters!
#hamradio #amateurradio

Another #POTA activation today yielded 58 QSO on 3 bands and 3 modes. And another #ATNO : Chad.
Thanks hunters!

#WX was cloudy with 3° C. First snow flakes. Forecast says temperature dropping and tonight rain and/or snow.
People celebrating carnival tomorrow will have a hard time.

Et une nouvelle RÉFÉRENCE #POTA #atno : FR-14263. Un petit parc coincé entre de grands immeubles mais qui m'a permis de réaliser 27 contacts sur la bande des 40 mètres essentiellement.

Today's #POTA activation of DE-0192 was different than on other occasions. First foggy then cloudy #wx, 9° C with no wind. In the end more than 120 (!) QSO were in the log and 1 #ATNO: Burundi.
Especially #FT8 and #FT4 on #20m was a never ending pile-up! Like lions that had no food for weeks they chased me ...
Thanks hunters! 🤠

Once more an early shift for #POTA DE-0192. 50 #FT8 #FT4 QSO, many DX stations, most distant was 3D2USU (Fiji, > 16.000 km). Several japanese stations, also South Korea, Argentina, Brazil and South Africa. And 1 #ATNO: The Gambia.
Thanks hunters!

I was very lucky with the weather conditions yesterday and today when joining the #CQWWDX SSB contest. No rain, but there was a cold wind blowing.
Finally, I have some 170 QSO in the log and many DX stations of course. 4 #ATNO: Bonaire, Rodriguez Island, Saint Barthelemy and the Seychelles Islands.

Just worked T32TTT in Eastern Kiribati 🇰🇮 (Gridsquare: BJ12 / distance: 8470.7 km) on 40m using FT8 #hamr #wavelog #EasternKiribati #ATNO #40m #FT8

This map shows the connections during #CQWWDX Contest (SSB) last weekend. Nearly 200 QSOs with 2 #ATNO: Mongolia and St. Kitts & Nevis.
The most distant connections were Japan and California. But this year there was not a single connection to the southern hemisphere.
#hamradio #amateurradio

Today's #hamradio session resulted in 2 #ATNO: Fernando de Noronha which I could work on three bands with two different modes, and St. Lucia.
