I have to thank the MT’s EU division for constructing this faux hunter’s hide for attaching bits of antennas to, right at the top of the Rotwand DL/BE-073, although I have to say it’s a bit too close for comfort right on the very edge of a big vertical rocky drop!
More adventurous types than me (and lighter ones!) would have sat inside in comfort while activationising the summit, but me - no way! It’s taking Summits On The Air a little too literally for my tastes…
Oh BTW, the position of the Rotwand summit in the SOTA database is off by ~350 meters to the WNW as the crow flies, and ~60 meters below, the actual summit. Makes for adventure radio in a very real sense! Check this list out for some more fun DL/BE and DL/MF summit positions:
