My QTH is located in an area of Moravian Gate, in the northeast of Czech Republic - North Moravia.
Ostrava is the nearby city (3rd biggest one in our country).

The village Bravantice itself (the first written records in 1370 AD) is set in a shallow valley sheltered by lower hills toward three directions (N, W, E). Hence, not very friendly place for VHF/UHF operations at all. Never mind, at home I prefer HF communication and mostly use 2m/70cm on the go as mobile or portable station only. The location lies nearby the Ostrava - Mosnov Airport (OSR/LKMT, ABT 8 km far from here).
