Putting up the Yagi

Why is it always raining like hell when you are going to put up antennas? Murphy was with us even at this time. We had lots of trouble cranking up the vacuum mast. The air compressor failed to make the mast go up. But after more than one hour of trial and horror the somebody made Murphy go away and the Yagi went up.

SM5HJZ, Jonas, tightening the Yagi. Murphy sat in the bush laughing at our efforts...

Olle, SMØIEA trying to increase the voltage to the air compressor. The problem was finally solved and the Yagi went up.

A two-shack expedition

When you go on expedition it's important to be QRV all around the clock. That's why we had two radio shacks. One in the big house and one in the outdoor toilet! Is this maybe the worlds first outdoor toilet shack?

SMØGNS making another toilet-QSO!

The shack in the big little house. Five stations on the air at the same time with no inter station QRM.
