International Telecommunications Union - 4U1ITU

Gerard F2JD, Bill N2WB and Dave K4SV were able to visit the 4U1ITU station in Geneva Switzerland as part of the multi country DXpedition connected with a visit to Friedrichshafen Hamfest. We had arranged for a 4 hour stay but due to traffic we had about 3 hours to operate. Bill N2WB operated SSB and Dave K4SV worked CW. Gerard handled other logistics.
