Günni's Holiday-QSL-Cards
The hobby "amateur radio" - on
vacation carried out - helps to hold contact with the world from
time to time. Often receives the selfbuilt "Triple leg", a
vertical wire antenna for the 20m-band the advantage. Built up
quick, uncomplicated and easily with the 10-m-high glass
fiber-tower, quite a lot of non-European calls succeed with 100 W
of broadcasting achievement in SSB from Kenwood-Transceiver
TS-50S.

archipelago
The QSL-card, a written confirmation of the effected
radiocommunication, rounds the contact.
With this card amateurradio-contacts from home will be
confirmed.
This QSL-card gets the more meaning if, besides, was broadcast by
an island. In the beginning printed cardboard was used, later the
home-made holiday snaps found use.

into the log. Beside contacts with own regional club-members

stations in Europe also 9M6 (east Malaysia), 7 X (Algeria) and
5B (Cyprus) were reached.
