#hamchallenge week 34 - Operate from an unconventional location

Operate from a location which you usually don't operate from. Keep it legal. What exotic locations did you come up with? Your bike? Your car? The top of a building (again, keep it legal!) or maybe a train?

You could meet them in person (preferred) or maybe have a (video) call? Connect with them in a social network and message them? We can't wait to see some pics from your get-together or hear some stories.

#hamchallenge week 29 - And now: Match something as an antenna

If your antenna from last week didn't work you can try matching that, hi. Try a transmission through your rain gutter or balcony rail. Please be absolutely mindful of your local laws and your own and other's personal safety. (Needless to say we are not at all responsible for anything we inspired you to do on this website).

#hamchallenge week 25 - Participate in a contest/activity... in CW!

Now this might be an easy challenge for operators fluent in CW, but if you never have worked CW it can be quite the challenge. Maybe it's the start of your CW career? Or just a fun excursion? How did you send your CW? Did you use a straight key, a paddle or a macro on your computer? There are lots of beginner contests and activities as well where operators accept slower speeds and their QSO partners needing a few more tries.

#hamchallenge week 23 - Organize or participate in a fox hunt

In a fox hunt small transmitters are hidden and your goal is to find them using a directional antenna and a radio. Linked below is a project by our friend Harm, DK4HAA to get you started. It's originally in german but the link is to Google's translation of it. This is an especially fun challenge to do with kids!
