First day at the VUSHF-meeting, sunshine and pouring rain

Well, we arrived to the meeting place at the picturesque Island of Møn. During the day before arriving to the meeting we had travelled from Gremersdorf in Germany via Puttgarden-Rødby ferry to Denmark, and searched for few vital things en-route to the meeting; Grill coal and cash.


First things first, I opened the fleamarket from the trunk of my car even before I had laid suitcases to the sleeping quarters :) Shortly it started to really pour rain, it was so good that we had the marquee with us!

Enroute to the Nordic VHF-UHF-SHF-meeting in Denmark!

It's time again for the annual Nordic VHF-UHF-SHF-meeting, organized this year in Denmark by EDR. We took this year a ferry to Germany instead of driving through Sweden. The ferry trip was quite fantastic, very different from the ferry trips between Finland and Sweden added with the drive-through of Sweden, which we have done *many* times. Finnlines runs brand new Star-class cargo/passenger vessels between Helsinki and Travemunde. They can take up to 500 passengers in addition to the huge amount of cargo (containers and trucks etc)


We just arrived to our overnight location in Gremersdorf, Germany, and continue tomorrow to Denmark over the Puttgarden-Rödby ferry.


Our fleet consists of four cars and nine hams; Juha OH1JA, Memma OH1EG, Rami OH2LIY, Toni OH2LNM, Veli-Matti OH7VM, Marko OH8WM, Jouni OH2BZP, Tapio OH2TH and myself.
