Story 13DX/BY023


Story from 13DX/BY023 activity.


Hello again, the 4 river tour with a double-IWI activation continues River Regnitz.

On the "Sport Island" is the hospital of the city of Forchheim and a big truck "central Station" We chose our location as far away as possible to the hospital. We found a path that ends in the middle of nowhere on this island. Now we begin erecting the antenna, the weather was beautiful sunshine and 10 ° C, no wind, we used the simple rigging of the mast. After the end of this work, Daniel, make a video. And I could recieve, like Daniel to talk with a woman with a dog. "What we are doing ?" what is a monster up there in the air? (antenna hehe), etc. Daniel came back to me and he said: “I think we have trouble” , the woman calls to the police ?????!!!!!!

We started with our activation. It went 30 minutes and we got a visit from the police. 2 nice police officers demanded our ID card. Several questions about what we are doing here, why, what is that on the mast, who owns the car and ask many more. A policeman had interested to know how far is the longest connection with the remote station. We explained what we are doing and what we intend in the afternoon to change to a second island. He said OK, and he gives the information” that radio operator here today are on their way” to headquarters. So we have no problems with the police on the other island. Thank you to the police for their support. hihi

The conditions were not good and we close our log with 43 log entries. 12:00 Lunch in the "BürgerKing" restaurant. We joked about the police and asked us, to noticed our next action in the future to the police. LOL

Many thanks to all for your call and we hope to copy all this afternoon on the next IWI >>>> BY024 Sportisland 2
