DX-camp house in Paimio burned down!!

That nice hunting lodge (house) in our DX-camp in Paimio burned down between the night 16-17th of September 2007!!! We were just able to go there in the end of September after summer break.

Local police of Paimio is investigating the fire but we have no news yet. The house burned so badly that it is improper for restoration. New house will not be up earlier than next autumn or even year 2009. Here photos of the burned house photo 1 - photo 2 - photo 3 and videoclip (10 mb).

So, the fact is that we have to find of a new QTH for our DX-camp! There are some other hunting lodges in that area and we hope to be lucky to have proper place very soon!

Not so nice job to collect 4,5 km wires away and then build them again to a new place...
Still 3 km left to collect on the 30.9.2007...

Nothing special during winter 2006-07!

During the winter 2006 - 2007 we had a few DX-peditions in Paimio but nothing interesting found. No luck with conditions during these weekends!

New start in September 2007 with better luck! 73's HKU
