Activity Summary
This year were a poor year from my QTH. Not many good tropo openings but in the end I got a very good
tropo opening which saved this years summary, especially on 1.3 GHz. On 10 GHz the openings were very few
and especially the rain scatter season give very bad result.

1.3 GHz Tropo Activity
2007 was a bad year and well 2008 also. When will it get better again?
More QSO this year but number of calls is much less then 2007 and no UK-stations, see map!
Hope we get a better tropo year 2009 but...

2.3 GHz Tropo Activity
2008 was my first year on this bad. I setup the station in June so only 7 month of activity.
Bad conds on 23cm and not so good on 13cm. I have found it much more difficult to get
QSO on 13cm then on 23cm. Will be intressing to see how it will be...

3.4 GHz Tropo Activity
Also this band is my first year and QRV during the same time. Here I have a small antenna e.g. only a ring feed
for my 2m dish which still is not in the air. Need to change the antenna to get some improvements on this band.

This is really bad! Can it get worse?
I for sure hope that 2009 will be better!

10 GHz Rainscatter Activity
During 2007 I have the total of 5 QSO on 10G RS. That was bad conds for rain scatter that year.
But 2008 I have ONLY one rain scatter QSO in the log, SM0ERR!
Hope we get a sunny and nice summer 2009!

24 GHz Tropo Activity
I have been active on 24 GHz since middle of 2007 with equipment which I have borrowed from OH2AXH for 2 years.
As all other band have been bad why shall 24G be good. But finally SM6EAN toke he's portable 10/24G station to his
summer QTH on Öland which is in the village just south of my QTH. But I got my first and still only QSO. I don't have
any big expectation too get any more QSO on this band. I will bring back the 24G station to OH2AXH at the
VHF-meeting in Sweden 2009.
