166 visitors signed the HSC guestbook of this year's Friedrichshafen HAMRADIO. That's over 20 more than last year. We had a spacious booth together with GDXF and NIAR, VU4RBI/NRO. YL Barathi attracted lots of visitors, some HSC members seem to have failed finding us at this combined booth. We will address that issue by using bigger signs and a big HSC flag next year. We want to add that this meeting had to present some highlights in many ways this year, too, and it was worth being visited. See you again next year.
