9A/DJ4FF/p on Vidova Gora, SOTA reference 9A/DH-053, in digital modes with small antennas.
After my first test in August on Wülzburg in DL with small aluminium dish I reduced antennas sizes
drastically and it still works, so this might be interesting. 12 digital contacts in 90 minutes from Vidova Gora, the highest elevation of the Adriatic Islands. Longest distance VU2.
Please see my qrz.com page for photos and details. I am still struggling with SOTA Reflector on how to upload photos etc. SOTA also not uploaded yet.
73 de Robert, DJ4FF in 9A
After activation of Vidove Gora I just designed a new portable RX antenna for QO-100 SOTA activities.
It is low weight, only a little bulkier and has more gain than the LNB plus reflector ring. You can receive
the digital modes (FT4, FT8), CW and strong SSB signals (-65 dBm at the transponder). You can build
it in the kitchen if no professional tools are available while travelling.
