Morning all.
Loving the format of the new forum. Good choice gang. It's very reminiscent of the original forum so it'd a double thumbs up from me.
Recently, I had the opportunity to visit OH73ELK Radio Island in Finland. The owners, Alex and Raisa, have created a fantastic holiday home, with the added bonus of an amazing radio shack, which is available to rent all year round.
I had an amazing few days and can thoroughly recommend a visit. If stunning scenery and a return to nature with the opportunity to play a bit of radio floats your boat, then OH73ELK is perfect.
Here's a video of my arrival:
Best 73s to one and all.
Paul.

hi al.
you would be in your element with that bbq matey. make mine a mosquito burger... very well done thanks
There are 2 bedrooms with a double bed in each room plus a sofa bed in the main living area. and i'm sure i sure a couple of pull out beds so the house could take 6 people easily.
i suppose you could always chuck someone in the sauna as well
