With good experience from the first use I took this antenna on more summits.
On Piz Nair, HB/GR-129, an easy to reach summit, someone put an empty concrete tube in the rock. So it was easy to setup the pole.
21 Contacts on 20 m, 3 S2S, 1 DX (WX1S) and 3 on 40 m in 1:22 h was fine.
On Aroser Weisshorn, HB/GR-144, also easy to reach, is enough soil to use tent pegs. It was easy to erect the pole.
1 lokal FM S2S on 2 m, 14 contacts on 20 m and 5 on 40 m in 47 minutes was fine again.
But on Munt Pers, HB/GR-049, are only rocks.
From Diavolezza are only 1 ½ km way and 200 m ascend. The summit is popular.
Stairway to heaven - the summit
I put the Pole between some stones and secured with two lines in direction the summit. The pole was only a meter or so away from the cliff.
During operation I saw the pole bowing to the summit. Dropping the mic I want to bring the pole back to vertical. Two friendly hikers gave me immediately a hand, holding the pole. I brought more stones to secure it. After this event there was no problem for further operation.
27 QSO on 20 m in 72 minutes, 2 S2S
Is there a way? A short ascend on the way back
Back to Diavolezza: a reward was welcome (Buendner Nusstorte - local nut cacke, sweet and rich in content)
Thanks to the chasers!
