Our largest project
Squares
The amateur radio society uses a co-ordinate system to
indicate in simple terms were a station is located. The
system currently in use is the Maidenhead locator
system and is built up by 2 letters, 2 figures and again 2
letters. This gives a sqaure of roughly 5x5 km, in which
the radio amateur is located and is sufficient for most
amateur radio applications. In certain case (using SHF
and EHF frequencies, another set of figures is added,
increasing the accuracy to tenths of meters. The locator
system is global and unambiguous.

Radio amateurs who are interested in making long
distance (DX) contacts, so-called DX-er's are interested
in working as many squares as possible. My current
standing is 523 (19 November 2009), which is not bad
at all, but far away from the top with 900+ squares.

The map indicates the squares worked from my current
home in Austria. The squares worked from my previous
homes do not count, unfortunately....
