This is where my home is, in the City of Karlskoga, SWEDEN. You can find more information about Karlskoga at the City homepage.
I live in a house in the eastern part of the city. Currently I don't have any antennas except for a 1/4 wave ground plane on 2m and a 4*1/2 wave dipole on 70cm. The 4-stack for 70cm is surplus equipment from an old cellular system that were closed many years ago. When I want to work something I go to my father where there is always some antenna available.
This is a portable QTH often used by me and my father. On a hill some 30km north of Karlskoga. We scouted this QTH many years ago when all the trees had been cut down just one or two years before. Today some of the new trees are higher than our 6m portable mast so it's not perfect anymore.
This is where our holiday QTH is. We use this QTH a few weeks
per year. Of the antennas you see in the picture below only the
dish is up all year. The rest of them are taken down as we leave
and raised as soon as possible after we arrive. We have one 10m
tube-mast that we normally have our 6m beam on but in some cases we
have other antennas. The smaller one is something like 5 or 6
meters long and we use it for our 2m beam. Sometimes we also put up
a wooden-mast with a 5/8 GP antenna for local QSOs.
As you may already have guessed the dish is not for ham radio,
except in the extremely few occations where ham radio is mentioned
on a tv-show.
This is a not so easily accessed portable QTH close by our holiday QTH. It's not so easily accessed because there are no roads here. On summers you have to walk 3 to 4 km. On winters you can use a snowmobile to get here.
