"Oberallgäu", thats the name of our region and "Tango12" the name (DOK) of our DARC ham radio club section. The general homepage information is in german language, but this page should give you an overview and some data about our hobby, maybe also for your usage.
If you are staying at our area, come and visit us at our monthly club meeting. More details you get below and on the german first page.
For spending holidays at our region we wish you a nice stay and a great time !
D-STAR DB0ESS Relais on Grünten "On Air"
Grünten (1.738 m above zero) is a mountain south of Sonthofen, which provides a phantastic view into the Oberallgäu area. What is good for sightseeing is also good for Ham Radio ! This is why we are happy to supply a possibility to communicate via D-Star from the top of this mountain into a very wide area at the foot of Gruenten mountain.
Bringing the station to send was a big effort for several of our Ham Radio members. First getting all necessary permissions, second getting all equipment and antenna to the top of the mountain and third installation of the D-Star relais. An illustrated report from our local president about all the work, partly in deep powder snow, you can read in german language at this link:
Here you can read a report of DB1MSO, Oliver (LINK)
Here you can see additional pictures of this project.
The location of the analog 70cm relais is Mittag mountain (1.451m above zero) close to Immenstadt
