My warmest congratulations to Reinhard OE5EDR on reaching his first Mountain Goat just now on Ahornbüchsenkopf DL/BG-023!

I am posting this while he is still out activating in the pitch dark, freezing night.
Reinhard is very active in this year’s VHF/UHF SOTA Challenge on SSB, bagging his 89th unique summit right now. It’s always a pleasure to work him from Regensburg, where he’s usually booming in 59+ over the 150–200 km ![]()
It is worth pointing out that Reinhard achieved his goat purely using 2m and 70cm! Recently he started experimenting with 23cm, where we already had a first QSO over 175 km, and with 6m. I have to say that I was surprised to see a single HF QSO on 20m in his statistics just now and I wonder what the story behind that one is ![]()
