SV5/OE1ZKC DX vacation in July 2003

| After 2hr flight from Vienna, we are arriving Kos Island just before dark. | The approach was finished just after dark. |

| I was disappointed when I realized our hotel is located on the southern foot of a mountain... Tough location to north... | Our hotel has a nice swimming pool . Cool. |

| Very compact set up of radio. It is capable of four modes, SSB, CW, RTTY and SSTV (oops, and FM if you like) | Do you see the fishing rod fixed on the balcony ? |
 |
 |
| I packed all of radio related stuff into the Pelican 1600 case, including an antenna and coax. Though it is a bit large, you can pack in one, and check it in air plane. | All of radio stuff. Radio is packed in the Pelican 1600 and the fishing rod for vertical. |
