What
is Aland Island Baltic Sea Adventure?
This is another Project envelopment Amateur Radio and Tourism. We never been in Baltic Sea ! We've look around, and found out excellent conditions here on this Friendly Aaland island.Of course we have no problem with language and also to get license and permitions to operate , you can also enjoy a small vacations with some fun operating radio just bring your gear and small antenna and you can disfrute a nice vacations. But Remember you shouldn't monopolize your hollidays spend time to visiting Mueseums, Sightseeing, take same photos, speak with islanders friends, share you culture with others .
Welcome to ALAND Islands in Baltic Sea.. The purpose of this web is to promote Amateur Radio and DX and explain why we choose these Beautiful and Peaceful Islands. This is also can be a good way to human relationship and cultural knowledge between people from different cultures.
One of the real thrills offered to licensed amateur radio operator is the opportunity to work DX. That thrill is trebled when the DXing is done from some exotic out-of-the way place. Unfortunately most of us have neither the time nor the money to travel extensively ... crossing oceans to far-flung islands on Pacific or Indian Ocean. We may never visit the other continents nor hope to ham from the moon. However, there is nothing to prevent any ham from sharing in the thrill of a DXpedition within reach of a simple transportation, in short vacation periods, and best of all on a exotic and paradísiac island. The wife permitting, the rig usually accompanies the family on every summer vacation. Installing the antenna and the rig is as important as setting up the the bungalow and preparing the first meal. The working of DX is fairly simple if the equipments includes WARC and 6 meters bands. If you have never taken 6 meters equipment as your .This is the most exciting and interesting pleasures in all of ham radio you don't miss this. Having decided what is to go, it is well to talk over with the rest of the family where 2 weeks vacation is to be spent. We decided here on Aland Islands
Where is Aland Islands ? Aland islands are located in Baltic Sea between Sweden An Finland crossed by 60 º Paralell North. Is a beautiful and Peacefull Place . The nature, the Hospitality from Nordic People and Quite place are the important reasons for a SUPER Vacations. You can have all informations about Aland in many places but you have to visit the Oficial Site of Aland . Ther are lot of conections on the sea and by air to the islands from Finland and from Sweden. Inclueding from South of Europe it's very easier . From Portugal or Spain there are Regular flights to Helsinqui and from there you have conections by flights directo to Marieham FAST Aland . We've provided a number of resources here to help you how to visit Aland , an prepare a Super Vacations with your family on Nordic Island of Aland. Ofcourse suggest improvements to our objective encourage new generation operators and promote amateur radio.

At.10h30 we take the Flight to Marienham on Air ALAND . On Alands Airport our Car (we've rent on ST1) was awaitting and than take the 1 Route , 3 Route and finally we arrived at Lemland . Very Nice and Quite place with Forest and a particular sea view and boat. I start to mount the Vertical. My station was LOW-POWER just 100 Watts with a Kenwood Transceiver. On Aland Island we'd only 3 hours Night all the rest are almost daylight. This year I'de change my operation style, NOT looking for break any Rekords, NOT use High Power, Not Many Antennas, NO STRESS AT ALL. I didn't made any QSO on RTTY due to a damage on Cable Connection between Micro-Hamkeyer and Transceiver . My idea is spend a Nice and Quite Vacations disfruting the place, visiting islands around , Museums and sighteseeing. On total We've drive around 500 Kms visiting different Islands and Places from Aland like Finsstrom, Saltvic, Eckero, Hammarland, Luparland, Mockero . There are lot of Birds on everywhere on the water on the forest , my Xyl took many photos. Dedicate time to the Nature we decide to take a sea tour for visited seals. I operate mostly on A1A Mode (CW), even I'm NOT a SUPER Operator believe I've tried my best . Of course I recognize that I'm improving and perhaps Next time I will be better. On the final I've Made 2.600 QSO's . My First QSO was on 27.July.2009 14h31 14.260 kHz SSB JH1XUP My Last QSO was on 05.Aug.2009 09h25 18.083 kHz CW SQ1EIX I've worked 67 DXCC Countries as follows:
The Propagation condtions were Not Good most of the time with strongly QSB Signals. No Conditions at all on 28 MHZ (10 Meters Band) , on 24 MHZ I've a few on the Log on Phone and CW . I've spend half an hour calling Phone and CW. 17 Meters was good conditions on SSB and CW many South Europe stations with good signals. 20 Meters Band usually open dayli and in the Night I've made many QSO's on CW. 30 Meters (10MHZ) was my favourite band work Lot of DX with my vertical antenna includes PY, V7, ZL, KL, those stations with good signals . I must Say that Many Stations from Asia including JAs, UA9, UA0 with Very STRONG Signals . On 7 MHz (40 Meters) the band very Noisy special at evening, but was nice to hear some good friends . I took my wire Gustav Kelemen Antenna for Warc and 10 to 80 Meters. On 80 Meters I couldn't have a good result so I Give up to dedicate time for 80 Meters. Thank you very much for all the QSO's .

Save the M ärket Reef LighthouseThat I'm working for promoting and preserving Lighthouse ofcourse I couldn't resist to accept the Finnish Lighthouse Society helping on preserving has started a campaign to save the lighthouse of Märket Lighthouse, which is in bad shape and needs to be repaired. After the lighthouse was empty for 30 years, the society made sure that the lighthouse got a new lighthouse-keeper in 2007. In 2009 it will probably be the third summer that the society staffs the lighthouse with guards who receive and guide visitors to the lighthouse. Look here the Excelent good Job from Finish Lighthouse Society http://www.majakkaseura.fi/eng/market/market_diary_2009/diary_050809/
My Sincere Apologies and sorry for those who expected for my Operation as OJØ/CT1BWW but due to have only a few hours on the island and because TWO Operations approach OJ0B and OJ0J Suomi Operatores and Japanese Operators I decide to postpone my operation from MarketReef for other time. But
certainly I will be back to Market Reef.
"OJ0B and OJ0J will be active
from Market Reef from the afternoon of August 6 until the morning of
August 10. OH2PM, Pertti, will focus on
the Worked All Europe CW Contest as OJ0B. OH2TA, Pekka, and OH3JR, Henry, will operate OJ0J mainly on the WARC-bands, CW, SSB and RTTY. OH0RJ, Lars, is this time supporting the team from his home QTH. The team will leave some antennas and equipment up for OH1TX and his Japanese team who will take over on Monday, August 10 for two more days using the OJ0J call. They will be looking for possible 6 meter openings from time to time. There will be no 160 meter activity on this trip but they hope to activate 160M in September. Pertti says he hopes the winds are not too strong to let them move all the antennas, radios, fuel and food onto the rock. "
Conforme se pode ver no Mapa abaixo o Arquipélago
das Aland (Åland no sueco, Ahvenanmaa
em finlandês)ficam situadas entre a Suécia , aproximadamente 65 milhas leste de
Estocolmo, Sweden. Os primeiros habitantes das ilhas foram os povos de Nordic, chamados hoje Alanders.
Os povos de Aland desenvolveram uma árvore geneológica específica,
diferente de outros escandinavos, estando isolado e uma forte
ligação ao mar. A maior parte dos Alanders é considerado ser Sueco. Os
Alanders , habitantes de Aland foram influenciados por
culturas suecos e dinamarquesas no desenvolvimento adiantado de Escandinávia.
Hoje, o Arquipélgado de de Aland são uma província autónoma com um
dealeto sueco de Finlandia. O Arquipérlago das Aland é composto por 6.500
ilhas, ilhéus e ilhotas rochosas que cobrem 572 milhas quadradas e
conhecidas como lugar de Turismo, Lazer. A maior Ilha é chamada Fasta Åland
(Ilha principal de
Aland) onde habita 90% da população. Estende sobre mais de 70% da área de
terra total de Aland. A população de Aland no século
XVIII era aproximadamente 11.000, habitando 80 ilhas. Em 1905 havia
uns 22.000 habitantes, vivendo em 150 ilhas. Hoje apenas existem 25.000
habitantes residentes ocupando sómente 65 ilhas. Quase metade da população
vive
em Mariehamn, a única cidade em Aland. O distrito o menor, e igualmente o
menor em toda o Finlândia, fica no distrito exterior na ilha de Sottunga,
com apenas 130 habitantes. Desde há muito que se sabe que os Alanders
foram povos nórdicos
faladores suecos, com sua cultura que se assemelha próxima àda Suécia, com variações locais. Durante o
século X os estabelecimentos
densos começaram no ilha principal onde um grande número cemitérios do
farmstead e fundações da casa ainda existem (da era 800 - de Viquingue ANÚNCIO
1000). As conexões de comércio extensivas foram feitas com os países
vizinhos em o 1ø século (veja rotas de Viquingue), e os primeiros traços
de cristandade emergeram. Aland' as igrejas as mais velhas de s foram
construídas durante o século XII. Aland e Finlandia transformaram-se peça
da coroa sueca sob o rei Olav durante o século XIII. No século XIV, foi construído
na ilha principal principal, em um o
castelo de Kastelholm viu principal centro nos séculos XV e XVI.
Nos Séculos XVII e XVIII as ilhas foram palco de muitos
conflitos, forçando muitos habitantes aos a abandorem as ilhas e fugirem
para o continente suecos e
finlandeses.
As you can see on the above map the Aland islands (Åland in Swedish, Ahvenanmaa in Finnish) are positioned between eastern Sweden and southwestern Finland, about 65 miles east of Stockholm, Sweden. The islands were originally settled by Nordic peoples, today called Alanders. The Aland people developed a specific geneology, different from other Scandinavians, being both isolated and connected by sea. Still, Alanders are considered to be Swedes.
As far back as is known the Alanders have been Swedish speaking Nordic peoples, with their culture closely resembling that of Sweden, with local variations. During the 10th century, dense settlements began on the Main Island where large numbers of farmstead cemeteries and house foundations still exist (from the Viking era 800 - 1000 AD). Extensive trade connections were made with neighboring countries by the 11th century (see Viking routes), and the first traces of Christianity emerged. Aland's oldest churches were built during the 12th century. Aland and Finland became part of the Swedish Crown under King Olav during the 13th century. In the 14th century, Kastelholm Castle was built on the Main Island, a major center through the 15th and 16th centuries. Aland saw much conflict during the 17th and 18th centuries, forcing many inhabitants to Swedish and Finnish mainlands.
