Our old dipole were destroyed by ice last winter. We build new one with new design. It's two dipoles connected together, first tune for CW part, second for SSB part of band. In result we got usable SWR thru whole band. See pictures below…

Christmas SOTA
Short trip on peak Homôlka OM/TN-003 near to Fačkovské sedlo. There are ski resort so ideal skitouring destination even if weather and snow condition was bad. SOTA activation – blizzard, cold fingers, wet paper, pen did not write (luckily have pencil) and problem with paddle (snow in contact).
