Kukuljari Lighthouse activity 2012

July 18th  we activated the Lighthouse on Kukuljari Island Kukuljari References are: IOTA Ref.:: EU-170 - IOCA Ref.: CI-231- ARLHS Ref.: CRO-218

We came in with the boat from Jezera. Due to heavy wind we had to finish much more early as expected.

We used a homebrew vertical for 40 and 15 meters. Radio was Yaesu FT847 as usually on our activities.

Propagation was really bad (nothing on 15 meters) so we worked stations from europe on 40 meters with good signals.
