Schwendelberg HB/BE-156 28.05.2020

Time for the First activation 2020. My xyl wanted to join, but only if there is a fireplace at the top. After some research, i found this summit to be the best with fireplace.

Unfortunately the hike starts really steep, something she doesn’t like. Anyway we got to the top. After the fire was burning i installed the Antenna AX1 with 40m Extension (first time) and started checking for S2S, i got one. started calling myself on 40m. i took some time til i had a couple of qso. I had to check the fire again and to start the barbecue. Usually Swiss people have their Cervelat with them, b.t.w. very Tasty.

After the Lunch there was no time left for more qso. We walked back to Guggisberg and by bus back home.

Total distance: 3567 m
Total climbing: 271 m
