Field Day Contest (SSB) and WWF PAFF-038

Sunday the 4th of September,i was active in the Field Day Contest as PD7BZ/p
I was active just with a small setup and 25 Watts.
The place i was active in,Boswachterij Grolloo,also counts as WFF PAFF-038.
As we know,it was the first activation on HF from this WFF area.

Setup was a Yaesu FT857 (25W) with Heil Headset.
Antenna was the HF6V from Butternut,with 12 wire radials connected.
Powersupply was the Diamond GSV3000
Generator was a small one Güde GSE950 (220v 650-950Watts)

This small setup got me 112 QSO's in the log.
Most were at the 40M band.
It was nice to be also on the other side in the contest.
For some years i work from th home QTH...and for us in the Netherlands,
in the Field Day Contest we should only work /p , /m and /mm.
The rules for other countries are different as they are for us.

See the photo's from the small activation....
