Hi Rafa, I will be in Germany for a week around the Friedrichshafen w/end. I am staying in the Sauerland (600km North) so I don`t think I will make a 1200km round trip to the show this year. Maybe we will have a summit - summit qso. Enjoy the show & have a beer & schnitzel for me hi.
(lets hope the Es improve on 10m/20m in the meantime)

I will be there on Friday, probably not activating this year but certainly interested in meeting with other activators and chasers as well.

Don’t forget Pfaender OE/VB-512. Nice and easy as the cable car takes you to top, almost. 5 minutes walk to the summit. Just take the train or boat from Friedrichshafen to Bregenz.

Hi Rafa…
In the past years there was a SOTA-Lunch on Saturday at 10UTC on the Fair.
I don´t know if this will take place also this Year. I´ll be in Friedrichshafen from wednesday till monday. I stay on the Fischbach campsite.
As every year I will be in Fried on friday and look forward to meeting you there. Last year we had chosen the qsl wall as a meeting point and later proceeded to the biergarten for a cold drink.
Anyone arriving earlier in the week please note that unlike the years before thursday, 23rd of June will be a public holiday - Fronleichnam - in Bathe Wurttemberg, Bavaria and some other states (shops will be closed).
I will be there on maybe Friday, more likely Saturday (probably not both) but won’t be activating summits - Mrs OTI will give me time off to visit the show - and fill the car with microwave bargains, hopefully - but there won’t be time for summits as well.
Last year there was also a international SOTA meeting on Saturday…
…WE WERE A TOTAL OF 4 (in words: FOUR!) PEOPLE … !!!
I really hope, to meet some more this year…
I will be there together with OE5IRO and we will also do some activations on friday evening and sunday afternoon. During the show you´ll find us at the booth of “funkstammtisch” in hall A3/F081
I´ll be in FN from Thursday evening to Sunday noon.
Ive see that there are 2 SOTA summits next to Friedrichshafen… and I
see that both have a lot of activations in June… in the fair
dates… jajajaja
Last year I´d activated the “Gerenberg” at Saturday. When i arrived, HB9BAB was still there, 20 minutes later came two OMs from S5 up - nice meetings :-))
Is there any activator interested in the activation of these summits?
Perhaps we could prepare a “international team” and climb
together…
And if somebody wants we could also set one appointment to drink a
beer together
That´s a very very good idea.

PS: We stay with Tom, DL1DVE, at the campsite in Fischbach.
Sabina S57BNX and Milos S57D will also be in FH and we have some plans to do SOTA with Dzianis DD1LD. I hope we will meet at the QSL wall on friday at 12:00 local time as we met last year.
