I haven't been out doing any QRP activations lately , but I got out yesterday , beautiful sunny day, 27c , not much humidity , nice sea breeze , since I was only 75m from shore, tried out a new antenna, the Gabil 735. It was a great activation , only 20 in the log and the guys cutting the grass went else where in the park so I could finish up.. lol
Hello Morten, 29 C. Awe man. You need to come to my neck of the woods in Kentucky, USA and do a POTA activation when it is 32C with a heat index of 39C. That will get you goose cooking. Thanks for sharing this video. 73 Jim N4JAW "Ham on a Bike"
I have spent a couple of summers in the US Midwest and South. It’s a bit hotter than here, but not that much anymore. And I will take you up on your offer the next time I am in Kentucky:)
@@LB0FI Release this song as a separate video on you channel :) It is a catchy tune with sarcastic lyrics. I think it will get many views from hams and few dislikes from ppl with no humor :D And it will end up in many playlists...
Great Video .. Bands have been pretty dismal even from here in the use.. especially 10M .. Loved that FT8 song .. is that available to download.. saw it was AI generated ;D 73

Hoping to get you in the log from a park soon. Happy to get you in the log from home last week though.
Looked like a lovely day. I also have to hide a bit from the sun no matter the temperature.
I don’t handle sun or heat well. My family in Illinois has coined the term Norwegian tan.
Looks like beautiful day in Norway 🇳🇴 I definitely have to get a trip over there during the summer. Been there twice in the winter.
Summer has it's charm as well :)
Have fun this summer!
Thanks Mike. You too!
Yep , last summer it was 105 when we tried to activate in south georgia. That was a mistake, ae4xo
I haven’t activated in those temperatures, but I walked the entire National Mall in 102’F a couple of years ago. That was not a wise decision.
Wish it was hot when I was in Runde the other week. Good video....
Thanks Chris! Runde is a beautiful place though.
The heat is oppressive here in Oklahoma.
It’s not the heat, it’s the humidity, right?
@@LB0FI most definitely 😁

Hi Morton was the FT8 song created using AI or has someone actually written and recorded that? 73 Ed.
It’s AI generated. Lyrics by ChatGPT and music by Udio.

Thanks. Can't wait until the summer doldrums are over. The song is only available on this video, and I have no plans to release it further.
what a surprise. I'm watching your channel and suddenly my call comes
Regards, SQ5NWA
Thanks for helping me activate!
It's sure been a hot summer so far 😑
