PG7V was active at PAFF-017 and more
Reports from JanJaap @ PAFF-017 and PAFF-033
In the first weekend of this month JanJaap PG7V was active from Schiermonnikoog - PAFF-017 and IOTA EU-038. Blessed with good weather he worked CW and SSB on 20, 30 and 40m.
Schiermonnikoog does not allow visitors to take their car on the island so you will see PG7V with his bike on his blog: http://www.pg7v.com/category/paff
On his blog he also describes his activities at PAFF-033 and PAFF-012 earlier this year.
