Hej!

Med tanke på att det MÅSTE tas hem poäng i SSB-delen för att reducera den
finska överlägsenheten, överväger jag att köra SSB-delen från SM...

I så fall åker jag till Göteborg och kombinerar det med litet släktbesök.

Då återstår enbart nästa utmaning - att hitta en station som man skulle
kunna köra Single Op Multi Band High Power ifrån... Alternativt delta i en
Multi Single satsning med max en operatör till - eller Multi Multi...  SK3W
ligger lite svårtillgängligt till från SM6, så kanske fokuserar på SM6 eller
SM7 i första hand.

Någon som inte vill att stationer samlar damm under nästa helg???

73 de RA/SM6LRR, Mats
