The W1SRG team consisted of Larry, AG1C, Doug, K1RDD and Willis, KB1JFG. The Field Day site was in the grounds of the Southborough Rod and Gun Club.
A total of 155 CW and 159 SSB QSOs were made.
The imposing entrance to the Friedrichshafen Messe, a modern exhibition centre |
Friedrichshafen is famous as the city where the Zeppelin airships were invented and built. |
One of the two halls staging the extensive fleamarket. Very spacious and easy to navigate |
Some antique valve radios. I didn't ask the prices, but assume this sort of stuff isn't cheap |
As well as tools, this guy was offering sufficient surgical products to supply a few hospital operating theatres |
These owls were obviously doing a fine job as I never saw even a single sparrow all day |
An impressive display of really nice wide spaced variable capacitors |
Life's too short for QRP. Excellent range of aussie made amplifiers, including one with 5Kw output from Emtron |
Many national societies, DX, Contest and CW clubs were represented here |
An interesting magnetic loop antenna for the HF bands |
I came across this obvious contest site whilst hiking in the forests near Lindau |
A fantastic mobile pub at the Bregenz Seefest. Nice beer too! |
