Yet another activator on Höchsten DM/BW-854

Jaan SM0OEK/P activates Höchsten DM/BW-854 giving my equipment a work out on CW. One of an endless stream of activators on the summit this weekend. We met another 3 arriving as we were leaving after grabbing the geocache

Just as I was packing up, Laurent F8CZI appeared on the bandstand. I quickly plugged the KX2 back in and he got his four contacts:

It was nice to meet up with so many hams on the same summit. Thanks to all the chasers who stayed on the bands to work us all.

Now here’s a funny story … and again proof that I’m terrible with faces …
When I arrived at the same summit, Herbert, OE9HRV had already taken the bench at the bandstand, and was on 20m.
So I went around and found Matt, OE6FEG, setting up, and asked what band he would use … he said 10m, and later 40m.
Ok, so I decided to do some 30m CW then, and walked to the next bench.
Important detail : Matt was wearing a hat when I met him.

My activation went so and so, not a pile up, but enough contacts …
In the middle of my activation, a bald guy came to me and said “I’m Finnish” (at least that’s what I heard, I had my headphones on, and was concentrated on the CW … and I only had looked up half and half).
I said “Finnish ? I was expecting a Swedish ham”
(I had been in contact with Jaan via DD5LP, but we hadn’t really agreed on some joint activation …)
The bald guy replied “No , it’s me Matt … I have finished activating on 40m, so you can use 40m now if you like !”
HAHAHA … I am sooo bad with faces, so sorry Matt … but it’s all in the “hat” you see …
