Franzs goal for today was Reiterkogel. He reached the summit when I (Tom) finished my operation up on SB-231. As I finished packing my equipment for the way down Franz told me via 2m that he already has abt. 15 QSO`s.

Great WX this week so you really have to hurry up the mountains to achieve a few SOTA-points. Only 3 degrees in the morning (you can see frost on a picture) but later on very sunny and perfect for walking.

Once again a strong pileup for Franz who was on “Steinplatte” today. Over about 30 minutes 1 QSO per minute – very good conditions and fb WX on this day… Watch the gallery for pictures!

Brightest sunshine – summit height of 2504m ASL – 10 Sota activator points to collect – these are the positive sides of this trip – the other side is a walking time of 7 hours but this could’t stop us …

Not knowing where to go – not knowing if the summit over there has a SOTA Reference Number 🙂 This was the start of a very spontanious SOTA Activation by OE2WNL and OE2WNP …
