Ouddorp antennapark


After a visit to the beach of Ouddorp I drove past a field with lots of antennas. It turned out to be a site of the Royal Dutch Navy with shortwave antennas. 
On shortwave the Navy communicates (encoded voice and data !) with its frigates and vessels. One of the antennas I recognize as a logper antenna.

Le Forty

A couple of years ago I have built Le Forty; a 40m QRP transceiver.
I received a nice picture from Carlos EA1CGK in Salamanta from his version of Le Forty ('Building in progress').
