Another 3 Summits done in Dalarna

After coming back from vacation to Stockholm I decided to have a couple of more days off and continue my activation in Dalarna. The weather was great and despite this was a contest weekend, WAE, I got plenty of QSO in the log.
Summary of this trip in Sälen mountains are the summits look pretty much the same. There is always a small tree were you can attach your pole and antenna. Plenty of blueberrys and cloudberrys to be found. I got almost 100 CW QSO and out of these 5 S2S.

Friday 7/8 me and my wife did a 10km hike and activated Östra Kalven, SM/DA-013, in the afternoon.

On Saturday we started of early and took a 19km long hike and passed by our next summit Storfjället, SM/DA-033. Weather was perfect with slight wind to keep the flies away.

Hiking in the wilderness

Monday morning we decided to make a 8km short hike to Kjällfjället, SM/DA-012. Quite windy in the beginning but when I got settled the wind clamed down.

Thank you to all chaser. This was my first time with a linked dipole and that sure made a difference compared to my previous EFHW antenna.

Beautiful photos and it looks like you were lucky with the weather, too!

How did the linked dipole compared to the EFHW?
