First QSO
Ok, now it´s done. First QSO completed. I did check in to the local club net a while ago, but today I heard SM5DVP call CQ on the nearby Echolink node SL5ZYT-L on 145.275 kHz that I happened to monitor. I answered and had a nice chat with him. He was in Eskilstuna connected over Internet and I used my newly purchased Wouxun KG-UVD1P . It´s a nice radio with very good value for money I think. I will buy another battery and BNC connection so I can connect it to some other antenna later on. I want to try out satellite communication. Talking about Echolink I have signed up and validated my call sign. I will try it later on to see if it´s any good.
